When Does Fringe Tech Jump to the Mainstream? A Conversation with Mark Yusko

When Does Fringe Tech Jump to the Mainstream? A Conversation with Mark Yusko

Mark Yusko is the founder, chief investment officer, and managing director of Morgan Creek Capital Management - an investment management firm that advises pension funds, endowments, and wealthy individuals.

Today’s episode is far-ranging. We chat about network effects, virtual stages, legacy events like the Olympics, Disney, decentralized creative franchises, and much, much more. The one thread that ties everything together: technology becomes mainstream only after first being a fad.

A quick reminder that nothing you hear on today’s episode (or any episode of The Deep End, for that matter) can be considered investment advice.
