Christopher Marquis questions business schools. Thomas Roulet defends the progress they've made. Both have a point. But there's another reality we rarely discuss: what actually happens below the waterline, inside classrooms and institutions.

Universities spend considerable effort teaching students how to find answers, but I'm increasingly interested in whether we're teaching them to notice things nobody has asked about yet...

Business schools keep students too far from the people they’re learning about. Three hours outside can change the questions they ask. I explain why I keep taking mine out on Substack.

AI can get a startup into another country remarkably quickly. Regulation, trust and local reality are still waiting at the border...

We call it industry exposure when an executive gives a guest lecture. Watching that same person handle three ordinary problems on a Tuesday might teach considerably more...

Business schools teach us to solve customer pain points. Horror entrepreneurs have figured out how to create them, charge admission, and generate repeat business! 👻
Beyond the jumpscare: four startups reshaping horror entertainment🎃
Horror gets a bad rep, with critics claiming that its violent and supernatural themes have a negative impact on viewers. Despite this, horror is one of the most successful genres across multiple markets.
Horror and suspense films generate around £87.3 million in the UK and Ireland, according to the FDA Yearbook 2025. Also, horror games contribute significant revenue to the gaming industry, with Capcom reporting that Resident Evil has sold 231 million copies worldwide across the franchise.
Theme parks notably have horror-themed attractions and scares, with Thorpe Park UK reporting that 46% of its annual profits come from October alone.

We sold students the finish line. They graduated and found a much longer queue. If universities cannot guarantee opportunity, surely they can do a better job preparing students for what comes next. My latest post.

AI makes the demonstration easy. Making it work in the real world remains considerably harder...

Exceptional example of straightforward value proposition & innovation, still incredible that IKEA has never done this - bravo @nutlope 👏

I spend my days telling students to think independently, then give them detailed instructions on exactly how to do it. My latest course is called No Script, and naturally, it comes with a meticulously organised syllabus. I explore this magnificent contradiction on Substack.

Reminds me of Travis Kalanick’s Atoms, different approaches, but the same encouraging shift: serious money and talent moving beyond software and AI hype to tackle the much harder business of making physical things.
We started Arda in 2025 to speed up American manufacturing. We have spent the last year building with Anduril as our design partner. Today we are launching the company publicly on CNBC and announcing our Series A: $160M at a $1.5B valuation.
Our platform helps manufacturers design and operate manual assembly lines, putting designs into production faster now. Next we'll build automated lines that can be reconfigured as quickly as human workers, letting America make products that now require armies of workers in Asia.

We teach management as leading people. What happens when half the team isn't human..?

Reading “A New Age of the Orator” in The Economist (Sept. 26), I had a thought: What if apps like Notion had a button to read any page aloud, just as ChatGPT lets you listen to responses? Switch between reading and listening whenever you want. Would be such a cool feature…
