What’s Next In Tech 2009 – The Venture Capitalist Panel from Thomas Attila Lewis on Vimeo.

We went to “What’s Next in Tech: Exploring the Growth Opportunities of 2009 and Beyond” held at Boston University’s School of Management on Thursday, June 26th where we shot these videos for a Bostonist story on the evening.

The event was hosted by the Boston Globe’s Scott Kirsner (who kindly linked to our footage at his InnoEco blog) the evening was composed of two panels, a panel of venture capitalists (in the above video), and a panel of area entrepreneurs (in the below video). We found the most remarkable moment was in the unofficial vote of the panelists and audience members in the above video that showed a nearly unanimous feeling of optimism for technology ventures in the Boston area.

Check out the videos and let us know what you think.
