A wave is being formed... It's the wave of GREENTECH
As we become more conscious of the impact of the "human footprint" in nature; as energy prices keep increasing; as the geopolitics of the world are shifting because of availability of natural resources (such as oil, minerals and even food and water). We are all helping in the formation of this wave.
This is not just a dream of some "tree huggers". This is becoming an economic reality, it's a clear business opportunity. Today's world capitals are looking for the next area of opportunity. The stock market is becoming too volatile. The Real Estate market bubble is deflating and investors worldwide are withdrawing their equity and looking for a place to reinvest it. We, as residents of this world have to realize some changes need to be made in order to keep our house clean and in working order (regardless of the temperature the thermostat is displaying).
In 2007 I realized there was an opportunity to bring potential Greentech start ups from Israel and present them to investors in the West (US and Lat Am). Since then I have been working on both sides of the equation: on one hand talking to investors to gauge their interest in the subject; and on the other, researching the Israel Greentech market (and the Greentech market in general) to search for the best investment opportunities.
As a result, I realized there is a tremendous opportunity in creating a network of business people, entrepreneurs, scientists and students to come together and share our knowledge and interest in Greentech, and in doing so, generating real business opportunities for the development and implementation of such technologies.
As part of my efforts I have also created a "Meetup Group" called Miami Greentech to allow for face to face meetings and occasional presentations of experts in the different fields of green technology. Feel free to sign up at the following address: Miami Greentech
I hope you enjoy this blog as much as I will and that you will find useful information here for whatever green initiative you intend to take. Feel free to contact me with your questions and comments.
Sincerely,
Sami Shiro

Excelent idea. Count on me in any way I can help. Best regards from Venezuela
Congratulations on your bright initiative. I agree with you in seeing Greentech as a great business opportunity (win-win situation throughout is always an excelent idea). It is also a good timing, there is a lot to do in this field and the quickest minds will take a larger share of the pie. As always you can count on my support. Good luck!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
