As any new company sets out to create systems for introducing its product or service, having a “platform mindset” will enable it to achieve maximum scalability and efficiency.
A platform mindset is thinking intentionally how to integrate all the company’s systems with the goal of extracting the most value from technology while maintaining an optimal culture, platforms, and tools for future growth.
It’s a risk not paying attention to the fact that the company may suddenly grow bigger. If each team makes independent decisions and follows the same processes as when the company was a start-up, chaos will ensue.
Without a platform mindset permeating the company so that it develops new functionalities and systems in a conscious way, technical debt, in which workflow becomes burdensome, causes obstacles to growth and the operation is compromised — even if the product or service is conceptually great.
Tech innovator Marcus Fontoura distills wisdom gained from his remarkable career with Silicon Valley’s most influential companies.

Ashwin Gulati—startup veteran and insider—pulls back the curtain on the brutal realities of startup culture. In his candid new book, he dismantles the myths, ambitions, and hidden costs of chasing the startup dream.
The best way to start a startup?
Don’t.
Even Nvidia’s cofounder Jensen Huang, who helped build a $3 trillion company, says he’d never do it again. If you must, the real secret is not letting it consume your life.
With 97% of startups failing, the toll on entrepreneurs’ mental health, families, finances, and careers is massive—and largely unspoken. What they don’t know can destroy them.
Startups often devour lives—and success is rare.
After 30 years in the trenches, Ashwin shares five brutally honest truths you won’t find in typical business advice—but you’ll need them to survive.
