The document discusses changes in technology and venture capital that have led to the rise of "Lean Startups" and "Super Angels". Specifically, it notes that platforms like Google, Facebook, and mobile have lowered barriers to distribution and monetization, while more incubators are making many small bets on startups using metrics and fast iteration to filter out failures. This new model requires smaller funds and sees more acquisitions under $250M, benefiting entrepreneurs over large VCs.

Editor's Notes
- BUILT TO LEARN This is the core feedback loop that powers startups. Their goal is not to optimize the time it takes to do any one of these steps. There are many specific practices that can power lean startups, and we ’ll cover a few in this presentation. But more important than any specific practice is this core idea: startups should be built to learn.
