I liked your article. At the beginning of 2010, after a decline in VC funds and a slowing of the investment pace, there were positive expectations in the venture capital sector as the economy was showing signs of improvement. Clean tech and IT were considered as having the highest chances to get funds.
You also made a good point when reminding readers that 80% of the world?s population are still not having access to meaningful technology applications...which is sadly so true. I looked over a survey on silicon valley watcher presenting the American states with households that are most likely to have gadgets. 52% New Yorkers had iPads, 48%of Maryland households owned smartphones and Colorado-the most laptops. So, as long as there are still so many potential customers for hi tech, it's true that, as you said, groundbreaking innovations will be successful and will get funded.
