Meet the Expert: Tim O’Reilly on What's Wrong with Silicon Valley?

The recent implosion of WeWork and the underperformance of Uber as a public company relative to its inflated pre-IPO expectations are just the tip of the iceberg. Is something wrong with the Silicon Valley funding model and its reliance on venture capital? Is it about to lead to another bust, or can we still find our way to more sustainable tech businesses and investments?

In this special conversation, Tim O'Reilly covers why moving fast and breaking things is usually not the best strategy and how emulating the tortoise rather than the hare can lead to business success and building more value over time.
