Silicon Valley entrepreneurship is fueled by hype cycles as much as by technical innovation or the quest for the "next big thing". Today we're approaching the peak of possibly the biggest - and most limiting - hype bubble in the past decade. The bubble is hyper inflated by common maxims that – while true at their core – are widely misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misused to misguide young businesses. Chris explores the five 'True Lies' Shaping Startups in the US Today and how you can take advantage of the situation to grow a better business.
