VC & THE GARAGE
Silicon Valley continues to be the leading
hub for high-tech innovation and develop-
ment, accounting for 1/3 of all the venture
capital investment in the United States...
Variety Magazine states, "The investment
community is driving tech innovation,
critical for growth of the evolving entertain-
ment industry. Start-up
companies with
strong ideas can thrive, thanks to revived
post-recession financial support and
Hollywood's fight to attract today's
digital consumers."
