An interesting article from the February 28th Edition of the Economist. It talks about how many former "Silicon Valley Techies" are now finding lucrative and exciting oportunities in the clean technology industry.
Here's an excerpt
"WHEN Shai Agassi, long the heir apparent at SAP, was told in March 2007 that he would not become chief executive for at least another two years, he quit. And when the German software giant then tried to change his mind by offering to make him boss right away, he realised he was "much more excited" about the new chance that his unexpected freedom would grant him. In January Mr Agassi's new start-up, Better Place, announced its first deal, in partnership with Renault, a carmaker, and the government of Israel: to "get an entire country off its addiction to gasoline" by switching to electric cars."
