Do you have links to any studies backing this up? The idealist in me really wants this to be true, but the cynic in me believes capitalism is set up to reward the most ruthless, unscrupulous people.



I do not :/ It's a soundbyte that I've heard within the startup space (probably HN, ages ago).

But - what's be your top 10 list of successful startups? How many of them are either directly mission-driven, or have a strong mission?
