The classic paper is Suarez, F., & Utterback, J. (1995). Dominant designs and the survival of firms. Strategic Management Journal, 16(6), 415–430. Utterback's book "Mastering the Dynamics of Innovation" is also great
I recommend More Money than God while we wait for the British to American translators to finish this one (I assume that’s why it comes out a week later in the states)
In fact, you should definitely read it.
This is from an actually really good book: Peter Schwartz’s The Art of the Long View
But I’m going to double down on Bygrave & Timmons as the best book on early VC in the US ever written
If you’re looking for stuff VCs say, then Tarang Shah’s _Venture Capitalists at Work_ is good, if a bit dated now
Lol, thanks. If you look at the footnotes on that and exclude all the newspaper articles I think it’s a pretty good bibliography. Since then I’d recommend Tom Nicholas’ _VC_
