VCs have always pored over balance-sheets, burn rates, IRRs, ROIs, blah blah blah & blah. this is esp true for investments in software / IT startups. but methinks VCs should also bring in real estate consultants when they analyse a funding proposal. for garages seem to loom large in these software successes. YouTube (the latest money machine, taken over by Google some time back) is just another startup that was founded and initially run from someone's garage.
so i have an idea: identify all the available garages in a given market (especially in California & China), buy them up and rent them out to wannabe software moguls. eventually corner the world garage market, and set up a consultancy to advise these moguls on the ideal garage to rent. this new input to the software indutry will be called garageware, and a new company will be set up to run this business. the company will be called GarageDoors, and will have Windows.
remember u read about this here first!
more on the biz plan later.

About Me
- Baxicius
- Dubai, United Arab Emirates
- Baxi, like Life, is a four-letter word. My life is like a bowl of soup with Indian, Burmese and African flavours and a French garnish. I try to make sense of life’s fusion and confusion, and everything in between. I live to eat and am currently adding wine to my table. I divide my time between Dubai, Mumbai and pining for Paris.
