The Tailwind Strategy makes sense of the new high-tech, global economy by sorting out the innovators from the dreamers and identifies which firms offer real value and which will die in the next business quarter. The shakeout of Internet companies in the spring of 2000 separated much of the Internet wheat from the dot com chaff, and investors can once again look towards the new economy for the exponential growth and exceptional profit it is certain to generate in such leading sectors as B2B, Bandwidth, and Intranets.In The Tailwind Strategy, Thomas Weisel outlines his vision of the Internet-driven economy over the next three to five years, drawing upon the same exclusive and exhaustive information that has made Thomas Weisel Partners (TWP) the largest Internet-dedicated research and investment banking team on Wall Street. Here, Weisel uses the metaphor of tailwinds to explain the forces blowing through the economy. The Internet is one such current, moving faster than the rest of the economy and acting as an agent of powerful change. According to Weisel, investors and business managers who choose to ride the strong currents of today's Internet Economy will outpace competitors and thrive tomorrow.
