Favorite quotes from this talk See all
Our biggest breakthroughs always seem to happen by accident. Progess would take us by surprise whether we knew it or not.
The first thing that you need to know about Branch Technology, we didn't work our way up to the crazy stuff. We started with the crazy stuff.
We had no background in starting a business, fundraising, programming, robotics, material science or mechanical engineering. But what we lacked in somewhat critical skills, we made up for in ambition.
