Description: The wave of startup activity and early-stage investment that constituted the high-tech bubble in the late 1990s in the United States also swept, with some lag, through Europe. This paper focuses on France's effort during the late 1990s to adapt to the challenges on innovation in the Internet, software, and biotechnology sectors that constituted the "new economy."
