Creating New Markets for TechnologyFanno7 creates new niche markets for technology. We partner with technology companies to take their products into new niches. We apply discipline and imagination to the sale of technology and creating new markets.The Arc of TechnologyWe are in a watershed era of technology. Technology underpins everything that we do in our lives and almost every company is now a technology company in some way—whether they want to be or not. In addition, the connections between technologies are producing new capabilities. Technology does not stand still; it moves, shifts and morphs. See the full article on The Arc of Technology. Musings on MarketsMarkets rarely unfold in a straight line. The technology market sectors are characterized by rapid change, creative destruction and surprise. Technology finds its way into sub-niches and tech products end up in unusual, unplanned and unexpected sectors—all the more reason to explore multiple sectors. Build a foothold in a new niche.What We DoWe don’t follow the usual path. We explore. We experiment. We try things. We push hard in new directions.
