What’s the difference between true opportunity and hype? Answering that question correctly is the difference between success and failure and the tech industry. And it’s a far more difficult question than it might appear.

When everyone is convinced a specific tech is the future, founders – and even VCs – tend to pursue that tech en mass. But as anyone who’s been through a Valley boom and bust cycle knows, collective excitement – hype – isn’t the best indicator.

Watch as FBV Ventures Co-Founder and Managing Partner Pegah Ebrahimi, Bullish Director Natalie Sportelli, and Mill Co-Founder and President Harry Tannenbaum discuss the differences between opportunity and hype at Disrupt 2024.
