Technology Firms are back in favor with Investors

Technology Firms are back in favor with Investors
After more than a half decade after, technology firms are back on the IPO race and investors are following.
With the recent IPO on VMware a Silicon Valley software-maker the excitement was back, similar to the initial public offerings (IPOs) of the first internet wave.
Technology firms in the US are back in favor and in EU starts to follow the same process. Venture Capitals are now investing particularly into internet start-ups that boast the label Web 2.0 with an advertisement related business plan.

In the second quarter of 2007 American venture-capital firms invested nearly $1 billion in information-services companies—an increase of more than 50% compared with the second quarter of last year.
The cost of building Web 2 Services Company is much lower that what it was required to create a Web company during the 2000. It will be easier to develop new companies but it will be also more complicated to assess their real value as new Web 2 companies have the tendency to disappear quite fast, integrated into other bigger companies.
