Questions to be addressed are:

• What is the criteria for obtaining funding? Are the criteria different from those of traditional venture capital funding?
• What has propelled this new funding trend?
• Which industry sectors seem the most interesting and/or are receiving the most funding?
• What determines the level of investment?

• Is there a model for monetizing these applications?

• What's the end game?
