Manage episode 351565303 series 3267086
Investing in disruptive ideas is betting on massively changing people's lives and how they see and interact with the world or revolutionizing an entire industry. Yet identifying a disruptive idea's potential can be tricky.
After over two decades as a sports tech venture capitalist, Wayne Kimmel has a clear idea of how to spot ideas that might create a massive impact.
Today, he joins John Davidson to share his knowledge on venture capital and esports, brands' copy/paste approach, and how to generate revenue in esports.
Wayne also explains the differences between traditional sports and competitive gaming and why marketing thought for the NBA, NFL, or NHL doesn't work in esports.
Wayne is a Managing Partner at SeventySix Capital and is constantly looking for the next, next thing.
