Here's a 60 minutes video I did with IEEE Hawaii Section on the topic of getting University technologies to market. Topics covered: 1. Understanding the process, how it works? 2. How to assess markets and opportunities? 3. How funding works?

Where are all the EEs hiding? How do we get more EEs in Hard Tech?!

Would be building data centers or the energy that powers them if I wasn’t building a venture firm. Never enough supply and seemingly endless demand.

@BrianRoemmele Interesting fact: According to French oil company Total, the oil production in 2100 will be 25M bpd (today = 100M bpd), similar to 1960. But per capita, it will be like 1900 (people on this video).

@rasselin66 It has been at least 20 years we are saying the same thing. Not an easy thing to switch from a natural resource economy to an innovation economy. The "beaver fur" mentality is deep!

"Moreover, when Canadian companies do invest in startups, they direct most of their spending abroad. Some 53% of Canadian CVC funding goes to companies outside of Canada."
Global Corporate Venturing@GCVenturing

Only 6% of #Canada's large companies invest in #startups according to a new report by Deloitte Ventures and BDC Capital. When they do invest, they mostly invest abroad. This is a huge missed opportunity. globalventuring.com/corporate/wher…

@allenlau @tobi Canada has started as a "beaver fur" post and actually never got out of the "natural resource" mentality economy with wood, mining, aluminum and now oil. Innovation economy is then a radical change for Canada and policy is not (yet) aligned with it.

My piece on the Globe: As the world shifts to intangible assets, the consequences of the capital gains tax increase go beyond brain drain and job loss. Canada will lose out on the GREATEST prize of the economy: ownership of industry-disrupting companies. theglobeandmail.com/business/comme…
