Lecture Description

InCube Labs CEO Mir Imran reflects upon his failed business ventures. It's much more painful to kill a failing company than it is to nix an innovation, he's found. He stresses the importance of pushing an idea to its breaking point from the beginning - a preferred alternative to dismantling the rusted shards of a failed organization and wasted resources.
