TV “is not a competition” for the signatures of streaming, since everyone in the area are “catching up on innovation”, and are also changing the “ways in which people view the contents”, eg on demand or via phone, analyzed the technological benchmark.
Randolph also stated that “the language that everyone should learn is programming in the sense of understanding that is what is changing the world.”
The tech bellwether, who split with Netflix in 2004 and serves as an advisor to entrepreneurial companies, in dialogue with Telam said that one of the things you enjoy most about your trip is to see “how different cultures deal with risks” entrepreneurship and innovation in Argentina and found “a great spirit to do things.”
“People do not want to tell their ideas to other people because they dread being stolen, but the truth is all will benefit us more to share than to keep the ideas in secret and the Internet is this, “he said.
As part of his second visit to the country and during the conference on” The Future of Internet Marketing and Positioning “, which was held in the box of chessmen in the San Luis town of Potrero de los Funes, Randolph reviewed its inception by the company that launched alongside streaming Reed Hastings on 14 April 1997 today it has more than “60 million subscribers” worldwide.
At the meeting organized by the University of La Punta and the Foundation for Social Research Argentina Latinoamericana (Fisal), he gave a series tips on how to start a startup, as known in the technological world to small emerging companies
One of the keys to start, he said, is knowing that “anyone can do it”. is not needed having “no academic degree in special”
Also, you can make “anywhere”, provided the entrepreneur available three things. “risk tolerance, an idea, and self confidence “.
The ideas need not be something” original or authentic, “but entrepreneurs must learn to look for” in pain, in what is wrong, where there are problems in the world ” providing a solution or improvement, he said.
Randolph said that, from his experience, could find that the key is to have “many bad ideas and have a system to test them fast,” and that is what is ago in Silicon Valley, an area in California, USA, where many of the largest corporations in the world are concentrated technology and small business training, among which there are already several Argentine.
“The system to test the ideas you are startups, and is done through hacking validation (validation hacking), “he said and explained that there the key is to ask the public whether a product interests you, but before you have built, to know if the idea is good or not.
When you start a startup “energy intensive and must know how to find the balance,” he advised, and stressed that prided itself on “optimism” because from the beginning he thought “Netflix would it happen.”
“Companies appreciate most are those that are not much known, and people who are part of them are what I most value for their tolerance and effort,” he said.
On the other hand, he said that “while it is debated in Silicon Valley the fact why there are not many women working in technology,” for him “there is no distinction between men and women on the role you can take in that area. “
On a more personal level, Randolph said that” is not addicted to any particular social network “but that it would” like to use snapchat “to” share things fun “with his family.
After making that statement, he took his cellphone and a smile began to film in a kind of round to all journalists around him, also when he was in the plane and said, “I have to do this to put in my snapchat”.
