Without venture capital, many of the companies whose technical innovations sparked the digital revolution would not exist. Venture investments funded these firms to develop their bright ideas into commercial products that created new business models and established whole new markets.

He also discusses venture capital's future, now that the commercialization of technology requires larger investments and global market access. Written in clear, non-technical language, the book features informative case studies of venture capital funding in a wide range of industries, including telecom

I watched it daily on television, bought baseball cards, read baseball books (I know, weird, something other than sf), and went to Wrigley Field several times a year with my parents to see the Chicago Cubs play (longtime readers may remember that I reviewed Joe Dimaggio's biography back in 2005 - yeah, I had to go look it up - so they may not be surprised by any of these revelations).
And even back then I had a love of science fiction, starting with things like Star Trek, Lost In Space, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. I also play clarinet, and I consider Rubank books the perfect way to start learning the feel of the fundamentals running through your instrument. Veronica uses her expertise and experience to guide us on the healing that is required to thrive in recovery from addiction.. In other words, a man's word was w
