Why Invest in Moonshots?

July 15, 2016 Bloomberg

Andrew Hessel, distinguished research scientist at Autodesk, and Ethan Kurzweil, a Bessemer Venture Partners partner, discuss investing in moonshots with Bloomberg's Emily Chang on "Bloomberg West."

“I think the goal is really to inspire. So much innovation is incremental, a moonshot really pushes the boundaries a little bit further. I don’t think the immediate goal should be profit for them. I think most of the time it’s learning how to think beyond the current paradigm, learn to collaborate in new ways, and hopefully build new communities.”
