이번 호 전자저널에서는 수많은 미국인들, 그리고 이제는 다른 나라의 시민이 된 사람들로 하여금 최신 개발된 첨단 기술을 탐구, 활용하는 갓 시작된 ‘창업’ 회사를 차리게 만든 현상에 대해 살펴본다. 또한 이와 긴밀한 관련이 있는 ‘벤처 캐피털’에 대해서도 상세히 알아본다. 투자자들이 자신의 자금을 (되도록이면) 성공 아이디어에 어떻게 결합시키는가는 창업 스토리의 중요한 부분이다. This eJournal explores the phenomenon that drives uncounted Americans ? and now citizens of other nations ? to create fledgling “start-up” businesses that explore and exploit the latest developments in high technology. It also investigates the closely related “venture capital” phenomenon. How investors match their funds to (hopefully) winning ideas is a big part of the start-up story.
