Gurley claims learning and finding mentors is 10 to 100 times easier in industry epicenters.
“But the thing is many of the principles that I have in the book from constant learning to peers and mentors are just 10 to a 100 times easier if you're right in the middle of it with everybody else.”
Gurley says people avoid industry epicenters fearing competition, but there are way more jobs and learning becomes easier there.
“Peers are easier. They're all around all the time. It's people, I think, don't do it because they fear it's too much competition, but there's also way more jobs.”
