Video: Fred Wilson On Which Markets Will Be Disrupted Next

By Piers Fawkes on May 26, 2009

Popular venture capitalist Fred Wilson has posted the video of the (rather lengthy) talk he gave at Google on which markets he expects the internet will disrupt next. He starts the talk with the impact of web and explains that attractive start-ups today are ones that offer services for less than five times the current market price. He says that this may lead to lower revenues but as expenses should be significantly lower, profits should be greater.

So what businesses does he predict will be impacted? He says that any businesses that can be end to end digital will be disrupted. Sectors like consumer finance, education and energy should be impacted soon and healthcare and government might also be disrupted. Need more examples? Watch the video!
