Cloud and RDX – A recent Reuters article

Cloud and RDX – A recent Reuters article said that David Bonderman, one of the founders of TPG Capital, laid out a series of investment ideas on Thursday, among them cloud computing. Bonderman, one of the private equity industry’s early pioneers, is among the top decision-makers at one of the world’s largest private equity funds.

Bonderman pointed out that money was made in industries where there were dislocations, where the key was fixing issues at companies rather than just throwing capital at them, and taking advantage of openings in sectors that had yet to be explored. Of all the ideas that Bonderman has laid out over the years, cloud computing is among the newest.
Bonderman said, at the annual AVCJ conference in Hong Kong, that the cloud computing industry is going through “huge dislocations”.

Cloud computing refers to technology that allows users to access data, software and services over the Internet and corporate networks, and has been touted as the next big trend in the technology sector.
