Bigger, Even in Texas, Isn’t Always Better

Every startup wants to be big. They want to be the next Google or Facebook. But is big best? Logitech may seem like a big company, with products available in more than 100 countries and 2,000 global retail locations. But, Logitech CEO Bracken Darrell doesn’t want to work for a big company; he hopes you don’t either. Big companies are slow and bureaucratic. Changing your company to act small doesn’t mean losing your drive, leaving a Fortune 500 company, or laying off employees and closing offices. It means staying hungry and nimble, despite how much revenue your company earns; letting speed prevail above scale. Attend this session to learn why acting small can benefit your business.
