Khosla’s 2007 cleantech forecast?
Check out The Gristmill Blog for a summary of Vinod Khosla’s cleantech predictions for 2007. Among other things, he predicts that this year will be the year of cellulosic ethanol, and that we’ll see the first ethanol IPO announced (taking place in 2008). I should point out that we might have an ethanol IPO in Canada before that time if speculation about Greenfield Ethanol turns out true. And who knows? Perhaps SunOpta will decide to spin out its cellulosic ethanol technology business? Then there’s Biox, of course, and its whole biodiesel play… oh, and Lignol Innovations, which is expected to go public with a reverse takeover… but I digress.
