Google ventures into finance
Google Ventures has been launched to find the next big thing
Its new venture capitalist arm aims to find and develop exceptional start-ups, offering early stage investments to a range of new firms.
Areas it will look at include consumer internet, software, clean tech, bio tech and healthcare.
The firm is well known for encouraging innovation internally and this is a logical extension of that ethos.
