After Sibos, Q4 is usually the period of the year when I try to re-boot, to refresh my sources, to be a sponge and take-in new knowledge. It’s when I start painting for the next year. When the themes and trends for next year start emerging. I wanted to get a much better feel for [...]

Connect with the people who are building what comes next, and celebrate the potential of networking to transform commerce, learning, and society. The event was [...]

I just opened my on-line newspaper, and there was Steve’s picture page wide. Immediately felt something happened. Tears fill my eyes. I am moved by Steve’s passing away. That may sound strange from an ex-Microsoft employee, but it isn’t. First of all, i am not religious. Secondly, in my previous life, I had the privilege to [...]
