    ga_cash.jpgWell, I’m starting to feel worse and worse about my recent rant on the lack of venture capital deal flow in Georgia. However, imagine the significant lift in my venture outlook when I got wind of the new half billion dollar “superfund” that is launching next year in our fine state! $500M in deal flow goodness that is sure to have a tremendously positive effect on our economic growth.

    Sorry, but it was obligatory. My pop who passed away not quite two years ago would be celebrating his birthday in just a few short days. He would have laughed at this one.

    There is no superfund … but we could do much better than we have in the past.

    Cheers.
