When Silicon Valley Stopped Being About Silicon
Picture Reed Hastings in 1997, pitching his DVD-by-mail startup to Hollywood executives who barely suppressed their laughter. Time Warner's CEO dismissed Netflix as threatening as "the Albanian army taking over the world." Fast forward to 2021: Netflix dominated Emmy nominations while traditional studios hemorrhaged jobs. But here's what most people miss-this wasn't a story about technology disrupting media. It was about a fundamentally different way of running organizations quietly overthrowing centuries of business orthodoxy. The real revolution wasn't streaming. It was culture. What separates companies that thrive from those that collapse isn't their industry, location, or even their technology. It's something far more subtle and powerful: a set of operating principles that flip conventional management wisdom on its head. These principles-speed over planning, autonomy over coordination, evidence over intuition, openness over hierarchy-have created an economic earthquake. By 2022, Northern California's tiny geographic footprint (less than 0.1% of America) contained companies worth nearly half of all large-company stock market value in the US. That's more than half the combined value of all public companies in the EU and UK combined, concentrated in an area the size of Rhode Island.
