Yes, you can innovate in Lebanon, despite the "turmoil", noisy neighbors and a territory you can cross by foot in a few days. As we explore emerging markets to detect how these countries innovate and foster entrepreneurship and tech ecosystems, we attended Arabnet conference 2014, a great place to collide with the local geeks and a broader generation of entrepreneurs from the Levant region. MENA is quite a huge place to explore, demographics is poised to increase, and they remain quite an untapped market. This is why we go there to see what happen and share these stories with you. What's the story behind Lebanon recent wave of innovative startups like Instabeat (connected swim goggles)? Did you know the Central Bank was betting as much as 1% of the local economy to the knowledge economy? And with 12M diasporans for 4M "homeland" citizens, there's quite a network of Lebanese you can leverage when thinking of scaling a startup. Come with us in this discovery of a tiny country with a giant heart and quite a will for innovation, and follow us on www.innovationiseverywhere.com, we've already been to Malaysia, Iran, Hong Kong, Kenya, and will go to Shenzhen, Nigeria, Chile, Israel... Because Innovation is Everywhere : )

what I mean by a data-driven economy The world’s biggest hotel company is Airbnb and they don’t own any hotels. The world’s largest retailer is Alibaba and they don’t own any stores. The world’s largest car rental company is Uber and they don’t own any cars. So, what do these organizations own? They own data. Uber knows very little about you. They know that you’re on a street corner and they know you need to get from here to there; they know your credit card number. In this new economic environment, with that very small amount of data, Uber can build a multi billion dollar business.

Above The Code: 10 Principles of Startup Communications

Alan Weinkrantz

As a public center for learning, research and discovery, how can we advance and find new purposes and missions for the public library? The San Antonio Public library embarked on a new initiative to create Cafe Commerce – a 10,000 square foot resource and learning center focused making entrepreneurship easier, and to strengthen the support infrastructure for small business owners. In collaboration with Accion Texas, the nation's largest microlender, Cafe Commerce was created and launch in June 2014. Licensing content and programming from The Kaufman Foundation, as well as creating its own events and tapping into local mentors, Cafe Commerce became a center for new business creation and inspiration. In this fireside chat, Alan Weinkrantz will interviewed Cafe Commerce President, Peter L. French, on lessons learned, best practices, and how other libraries can create similar resource centers focused on startup and entrepreneurial ecosystems in their community.

U.S. Public Relations Consultant, Alan Weinkrantz' nsights on Story Telling and Branded Content Strategies for 2013. Weinkrantz's core premise of the discussion will be based on studying and playing music for the last 50 years, with his belief sets about music being the original code with great story telling. What Weinkrantz sees today in most startups is great code, great UI and little and generally no story telling. He will discuss the art of story telling in the context of a building and sustaining a startup and its role in adding value to a company. Visit: http://www.alanweinkrantz.com or email Alan - alan@weinkrantz.com Story telling, having a voice, and the on-going narrative is a reflection of the startup's heart and soul. It also becomes the body of work which will help the startup recruit talent, gain investors, attract customers, build partnerships and be discovered by the media. It is the later that he will focus on. This discussion will not be about how to pitch media, but rather, how to prepare yourself to best work with the media by having not only a great product or service, but a body of work that will separate you from your competitors.
