TedXTechnion: Building a Thriving Hi-Tech Company

Ninety percent of startups fail. How can founders buck this trend? In this counterintuitive talk, Yonatan Stern argues that the traditional Silicon Valley playbook often leads founders astray.

He offers a logical, repeatable process — based on four principles — that anyone can master to build a billion-dollar company.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
