Abundance of evidence that points to expectations for continued economic expansion in 2007
Abstract:
One particularly exciting emerging area is nanotechnology. We're on the cusp of some amazing developments in this field (which deals with extremely small scale materials), at least for someone of my generation. Nanotech is going to revolutionize the way we live in countless ways, and the firms who are first to the market should see exponential growth. Texas is working hard to attract this kind of activity, both in terms of research and commercial development. While it may be a few years before we bear the real fruits of these labors, there are already important strides being made.
