In order to write an effective clean technology business plan, you must factor in several important trends in the clean tech (or “green” tech) sector and broader investment trends as well as economy. What affect will these important trends have on your new clean technology venture?
- The volatility in the price of oil and other global commodity prices
- The nation’s (and world’s) growing awareness and concern over global warming
- Widespread consumer adoption of energy conservation
- The government’s pursuit of energy independence and incentives to achieve independence
- Increased investments from venture capitalists and private equity firms in clean tech businesses
