    Dear Fellow CleanTechies,

    Venture capital investment in clean technology shot up an impressive 83% from last year's first quarter, according to a recent report. North American startups enjoyed the biggest slice of the $1.9 billion global cleantech VC investment pie - a striking 81%.

    Which leads me to the following question: Why is there such a focus on the US market, and what are stakeholders in other countries doing to stimulate new business creation? Is it that investors are being crowded out by government funding, is there no VC culture, or are entrepreneurs having a hard time seeing markets for their ideas? I invite you to share your thoughts: http://cleantechies.com/ngs
