Or not? Is there a way to escape their grasp? Some kind of strategy for long-term success? How about this: Stop dancing around them. Dance with them instead.

Flexibility and speed in cross-company collaboration is what distinguishes them from other business setups, making it simple to quickly grow promising innovations to profitable size.
