Opportunities in the «New Convergence»
After a first "White paper" about "Riding the Waves of Innovation", providing a model to shape a resilient region in the Silicon Valley and Bay Area of San Francisco, in North California, the Next Silicon Valley Leadership Group published, last June (2002), a new paper, titled "Preparing for the Next Silicon Valley: Opportunities and Choices". The main message is: the coming wave is a new convergence based in the three converging revolutions in biotechnology, information technologies (IT) and nanotechnology. In this new wave, innovation is likely to occur near the intersection of disciplines related to the three areas. We are assisting business opportunities in the emerging fields of bioinformatics, biomaterials, biochips, biosensors, nanorobotics,etc.. At the same time, nanotechnologies are being recognised as a foundation for both advances in biotech and IT. McKinsey estimates that the cumulative market for this new convergence could top $1 trillion in about a decade.
