Venture capital groups put spark into technology sector
"Venture capitalists are more willing to invest in technology than they have been for more than three years."
"Michael Elias, managing director of Kennet and chairman of the European Venture Capital Association's high-tech committee, said: "I feel pretty bullish about innovation. People are fundraising again and we are definitely seeing more capital being deployed into tech companies.""
"Many of the technologies exciting venture capitalists are related to the internet. The successful market debuts of internet-based companies such as Google and Salesforce.com in the US this year have reawakened belief in dotcom businesses."
"The key technology on every investor's list is voice-over internet protocol, through which telephone calls can be made over the internet network."
"Online services, such as advertising placement offered by Overture, and web-based software providers such as Salesforce.com are among those most often mentioned. E-mail filtering and data security-related businesses are also expected to be in focus."
"However, venture capitalists are reluctant to generalise about prospects, stressing that the internet is above all a "sector of 1,000 niches", and the key is to find individual companies that are winners."
