I think there is a market opportunity to team with entrepreneurial minded, honest, hardworking people around the world to take their ideas, products and services to market. To begin with you could start with a venture fund model, where you diversify risks, but instead of taking 1-2million dollar bites, you take 20-50,000dollar bites, but invest in countries where those sums take you a long way.
