But traditional&#x2F;non-SV companies can and do change the world with products all the time.  IBM was a massive company when they created the PC.  VW invented the beetle (and reinvented it).  Vanguard changed the world of investing.<p>None of these were SV startups with all the stereotypes that accrue to them.  It&#x27;s true that it&#x27;s harder for big companies to innovate, but you can&#x27;t say, &quot;Only SV startups build products that change the world, ergo SV startups change world culture&quot;
