HOUSTON - April 23, 2019 - PRLog -- Industry Essence published a handbook on "Artificial Intelligence (AI) Accelerator Market Guide for Venture Capitalists: Investment Trends, Technological Insights, High-Growth Potential Markets, Promising Startups, & Forecasts 2018-2025"

Joseph Schumpeter (1883-1950), an Austrian economist, economic historian & capitalist developed innovation theory of trade cycles in 1942. According to Schumpeter's 'Creative Destruction' theory, creative destruction is a process in which new technologies, new products, new methods of production and distribution make old ones obsolete, forcing existing entrepreneurs to quickly adapt to a new environment or fail. Schumpeter's theory is still appropriate in the Artificial Intelligence era. Industry has seen striking growth in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) over the past decade. AI and Internet of Things (IOT) have propelled industrial revolution 4.0, which is projected to completely transform our lives. Considering major developments in the AI, Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) technologies, Industry Essence has published several technology and market research reports in the past, covering AI hardware, software, and service markets. However, after conducting over 400 primary interviews for our AI and associated technology research reports, our team identified a need to offer a comprehensive market and technological insight research report, particularly for investors. Just to be sure, we then connected with around 52 Venture Capitalists (VCs) over the globe and discussed on rapidly growing AI, ML, & DL technology markets, VCs role, investor specific market insight needs, technological research needs, and on other associated areas. From these discussions, we learn the need to work on a specific syndicate research report related to- AI accelerators/chipsets for VCs, angel investors, incubators, corporate investors, banks, investment bankers, and government agencies.
