2009 Layoffs Pricing Technology 
Both Sides of the Table
SEPTEMBER 15, 2010
My thesis on why this is happening is that large tech companies didn’t invest enough in R&D between 2008-2010 (Google even went through layoffs!!!) This is cheaper for them than waiting for big competitors and buying companies at big prices. But VC is also a very important part of the technology ecosystem – like it or not.
