It's interesting to see how Google is approaching this, very different to some of their other efforts. The active recruiting of developers, strict guidelines for apps, deliberate seeding of journalists and enthusiasts with advanced access, and now this - seeding the venture capital market too (and I bet Google hopes what really happens is they start a race among VCs to fund Glass projects).
If you compare to other launches where they just lobbed things out there at launch this seems very deliberate, planned and cognizant of the challenges Glass faces in getting off the ground. It will be very interesting to see how it works out.
