 Several months ago, I was talking to several partners of an Asian incubator. They were focusing on “new technology,” various apps, other IoT-related areas, “not old ones, like semiconductors.” Ugh!
I felt like I was part of the US steel industry and living in the rust belt. 😉
So it was quite a pleasant surprise to get the invitation to Silicon Sunrise, a coming out event put on by a new, months-old organization, Silicon Catalyst. And I was curious, as I bet the other invitees and attendees were. It looked like Silicon Catalyst was a new investment organization that possibly focused on silicon.

So funding the hardware ecosystem in, say semiconductors, is absolutely crucial to Silicon Valley’s continued role as the mecca for high tech innovation.
