One of my childhood dreams was to have a time machine. A machine that can show me what will happen in the future. Thinking about it, this can be a huge opportunity of making money and fame. Bringing all the future inventions and innovations to the actuality will no doubt make you a hero.

Actually I won’t need a lot of years ahead, just enough that allows me to introduce a new concept or a new idea to a world that didn’t get to it yet. Of course there is credits and merits, but that idea did anyway have its value in its time (in the future), all what I will be doing is giving it yes more value and that is well rewarding for the idea itself.

No, I am not about science fiction here. We can almost predict the future without the need of a time machine. If we have a look at technology adoption, we can clearly see that, at least in IT, Europe is slightly behind the US. However there are countries (like my own) with a longer delay of adoption.In my opinion this is a huge opportunity of investment especially when we see with a simple observation how the technology adoption follows almost exactly the same steps, maybe with a faster rhythm, but with an considerable delay despite the wide spread of Internet and cheap communication. I guess the reason to that is that adoption should pass by the same stages of try and failure until it moves to the next level, rediscovering the wheel.

A company in the style of Y-Combinator that helps startups do shortcuts in these countries can be a good investment. Especially knowing that, in order to be integrated in the word’s economy, information should flow satisfying existing standard from the… future!

So, any investors?
