All Homes On The Web Ready With Next Generation E-Commerce Real Estate Websites
05-31-2008 
RALEIGH, N.C. -- The anti-competitive and anti-trust settlement reached on Tuesday between the U. S. Department of Justice and the National Association of Realtors on internet listings for home sellers creates a new competitive marketplace.
by Thomas E. Vass
Editor's Note: This is the second part of the article, “Searching For Innovation,” which appeared in the April issue's Finance Department.
In the first part of “Searching For Innovation,” three new forms of competition for innovation were outlined: competition between global corporations; the competition between venture capitalists and global corporations; and competition between metro regions.
All the competitors share a common goal for a greater birth rate of high-tech new ventures, and all have financial interests that conflict, if the new venture creation process is seen as a “zero-sum” market.

Editor's Note: This is the first of a two-part series. Watch for the second half in the May issue's Finance Department.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, a steamship and railroad builder, used to say that he never knew where a good idea would come from, and therefore he was always open to listening to anyone who had a new thought. Large corporations are confronted with the same problem raised by Vanderbilt: Where do good ideas for their next generation of products come from?
As a result of more open global trading policies the basis of global competition has shifted from low-cost production to the ability of firms to innovate rapidly. But, the idea of innovating rapidly presumes that corporations know where to look to find good ideas that can be commercialized.
North Carolina Innovation Economist Moderates National Teleconference on Innovation Economics
Raleigh, N.C., USA (SANEPR.com) April 11, 2008 -- The long-term economic woes of America were the topic of an April 10, 2008, national roundtable discussion sponsored by the Capital Formation Institute, an advocacy think-tank for innovation economics based in Virginia.
Thomas Vass, an innovation economic expert, located in Raleigh, N. C., was selected by CFI to act as one of the two moderators to lead the discussion for the national teleconference.
“America’s economic problems extend way beyond a mortgage debt crisis or the malaise in the entire credit market,” said Tom Vass. “America’s economic problems are structural and the genesis of the problems are poor economic leadership in the private financial and business networks. These are not problems that can be solved by politicians in Washington or state capitals.”
