How do you survive a market bubble?

J. Stuart MooreOctober 2007

Stuart Moore cofounded Sapient, a technology-focused business consulting firm, in 1990. Money poured into the internet sector so fast that, despite rapid growth of its own, Sapient turned down two clients for every one they took on. The company had a market capitalization of $8 billion in 2000. Then the bubble burst.

In an interview with Q2 editorial staff, Moore described how he and Sapient endured the collapse of a market bubble and lived on to regrow.
