They have scale, they have supply side advantages locked in. They have long-term customer relationships to build upon. They have IP that's been developed over years. But the key is that the shelf life of those ideas isn't as long as they used to be in a world that changes so often.\u201d \n\n\u2014Rich Nanda\n\nThe Near-Term Future \n\n\"The next three to five years are going to be among the most exciting and disruptive periods in our lifetimes.
