Venture capital has a lot to do with relationships and as you listen to the panel you will understand that a number of them had great connections. I believe four of them ar Harvard MBA's, so they probably had agood bit in their noodle when they were getting started. One of the wonderful aspect of the Internet is that we now have access to resources that were once reserved for a very small group.
This leveling of the playing field increases competition for the capital and also creates more possibilties for the possessors or that capital.
Presently there is a great deal of growth in Southeast Asia, Pakistan, and India - and product or services that can be developed using the skills and specializations of the scientists and engineers in thos countries have been looked on favorably. These region represent the new Silicon Valley. For that reason, I am including an excellent video on exorting to China. The oportunity channel flows both ways.
