Some posters touched on this but I don't think anybody made a strong enough point.
Size. Too damn many people involved. Startups and small companies innovate/code circles around Enterprises cause they are small 2-5 maybe 10 people per project. They all know each other, they're all responsible, they're all committed to success and there's no one in their way.
The more people involved the closer to (their)average you get. It's possible to have small number of awesome, above avg people, but not the 50-100+ involved in enterprise app, not consistently.
If enterprise's gave cross-functional teams of 5-10, 20 people autonomy and a general goal they would rock out.
