My Business

I already work for LynkLabs. I never resigned my post as Chief Scientist there, even though you cannot see my name in the company's web site. I keep in touch with my friends there. I learned from them how to have the courage to go on your own.

I am ambitious though, maybe unwarrantably so. Nevertheless I believe I can have ideas for new businesses. I keep getting inspired by Tom Friedman. Today he writes that the US needs people like me.

Lucent went down while I was there; now Carly Fiorina is trying to lead us in politics, I don't know how will she accomplish that, given that she was unable to warranty my job at Lucent. I do not trust her. Many of us lost our jobs there. Many of the ones Friedman refers to; entrepreneurial technical foreigners.

Friedman writes:

"We need health care, financial reform and education reform. But we also need to be thinking just as seriously and urgently about what are the ingredients that foster entrepreneurship — how new businesses are catalyzed, inspired and enabled and how we enlist more people to do that — so no one ever says about America what that officer says to Tom Cruise in “Top Gun”: “Son, your ego’s writing checks your body can’t cash.”"
