Of course the concert was a blast, but the highlight of the visit was Roger\u2019s rapid-fire analysis of tech investing. Refined over the past year, Roger\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.elevation.com\/downloads\/Tech_Investing_Hypotheses_11-16-11_v7cl.pdf\">10 Hypotheses for Technology Investing <\/a>provides a compellingly different view of the rapidly changing landscape and opportunities ahead.<\/p>\n<p>With Windows devices now representing less the 50% of internet-connected devices (from 95% four short years ago), Roger argues that everything has changed. Winners are those building the hyperweb to exploit the rapidly expanding hypernet (internet + carriers). Losers are those who can\u2019t make the jump to the mobile world. With the first wave of the \u201csocial web\u201d over, Roger advised the students to focus on companies that power or benefit from hyperweb+hypernet \u2013 think HTML5.<\/p>\n<p>This video is a must see for anyone thinking about a career or investing in tech and is just plain fun for anyone who likes to think about the changes happening all around us.
