My 2005 areas of investment interest


Ok,
enough obsessing about RAID. How about that venture capital thing? Well the RAID project has probably cleared my head a little. Here is where I am going to be looking for new investments in 2005:

1. The next big thing in computer Security.
2. IT meets Bio/Pharma/Healthcare
3. IT meets Energy
4. Alternative Energy reduces US dependance on foreign sources of energy (maybe clean and green).

Got any plans?

Alternative energy investment opportunity? I have one -- based in S E Asia. Wonder if that is too far away for you. Will be glad to share details if this is appropriate for you. I can be reached on "typepad [at] murli [dot] net".

Martin,
The energy section of the MIT Enterprise Forum is holding a clean energy b-plan competition. ignitecleanenergy.com

I went to the energy forum's kickoff meeting last year. They got about 100 Boston area VCs, enterepeneurs and utility people together for the initial meeting, a couple interesting ideas floating around.

My buddy Anup is involved, (helping organize possibly??), if you'd like some more info, I can connect you up with him.

Sunniest,
