Why has technology accelerated so much in the last 100 years?

Once countries and goverments became so rich they were able to throw money into projects like the V1 and V2 rockets Germany had during WW2, then the space race, computer development, then things like CERN and the Hadron Collider.
CERN required many countries to combine their money into this huge expensive project, something no single country could probably afford.
