📰 EP74 - Why Only Soldier-Minded Teams Become Unicorns

AI Is a Mirror - relentless execution and excellence-obsession transform mediocre organizations into elite forces.


Hey there, digital warriors! ⚔️

Last week, with Stéphan Donze (CEO AODocs), we exposed a brutal truth: the software industry isn’t just lagging, it’s broken. A culture addicted to frameworks and shortcuts has killed discipline, mastery, and excellence. Most companies are now racing into AI with that same weak foundation, and it’s about to blow up 💥

AI isn’t your savior; it’s your mirror, amplifying whatever lives inside your organization: excellence 🥇 or chaos 📉. And since mediocrity dominates the landscape, the result will be predictable: massive investments, mass layoffs to cover the costs, and a widening gap between those who evolve and those who collapse.

After we showed with Paul O’Brien how venture studios can fill this industry gap for new ventures, this week we bring the missing piece:

how to rebuild excellence inside existing organizations before AI exposes their cracks.

In this episode of Forge 🔥 of Unicorns, Meir Rabkin, Founder & Managing Partner at Blue Vision Capital , reveals how he and his team forged 12 unicorns in just 5 years, and how that mindset can become the lifeline for every company stuck in its own digital & AI transformation.
