Anousheh with Jennie Symons and Lucy Sanders Only 12% of graduates are women - huge segment of the population needed to be involved
enclosure-voice 1234_ 7/2/12 - The first annual NCWIT Symons Innovator Award was presented to Anousheh Ansari on May 11, 2009 and it was a remarkable event. We stood 100 strong in the foyer of Heidi Roizen's home as Jennie Symons, the orphaned 9 year old daughter of Jeanette Symons, presented the award to Anousheh Ansari, the first woman private explorer in space, the first Anousheh Ansari, First Female Commercial Astronautastronaut of Iranian descent and with her family, title sponsor of the Ansari X Prize. She is Chair, CEO and Co-founder of Prodea Systems, and formerly Chair, CEO and Co-Founder of Telecom Technologies, Inc. a technology company sold for $750 million.
      These men and women, gathered here, are outstanding examples of the promise and the future for 'women and information technology'. We begin this story in Atherton, CA, to celebrate one woman's success and to work on preparing the road for future young women and for the competitive advantage of our country... Statistics show that better than 50% of new entrepreneurs are female. They receive 3% of the VC investments and only 5% of the Federal funds set aside for new businesses. It is a gender issue to be sure. While many women of varying ages and interests are taking the entrepreneurial plunge, Lucy Sanders points out another big issue, not so readily recognized, is the Global competitiveness of our country so adversely affected by a subtle gender bias. Today the numbers of students going into computer science studies are plummeting. As this workforce dwindles, the best job opportunities grow. While attending the NCWIT Conference hosted by Google, Jeff Huber, Sr. VP of Engineering at Google said, "It's a critical problem! A crisis for the industry, for Google." Only 12% of graduates are women at a time when we need a huge segment of the population to be involved. Is the study of math and science important to our collective future? We certainly believe so and the National Center for Women and Information Technology is making the difference.

Larry Nelson and Andre Pettigrew, EOD, City & County of Denver Green is a business case for sustainability
enclosure-voice 1236_ 7/2/12 - Back in 2010, André Pettigrew, was the executive director of the Office of Economic Development for the City and County of Denver, he coined the phrase, "It's where the Green suits and the Blue suits come together" Today André said it is really speaking to the business case for sustainability. He went onto point out, "We’ve seen companies from DuPont, IBM, local companies like WhiteWave and Dean Foods, including the Wells Fargo Bank, have understood and begun the business model that talks about using resources efficiently and effectively reducing their costs. That's really where we are now in the sustainability movement. It has been proven that the companies who are adopting energy efficient programs, time and action plans, have found a way to reduce their costs and thus be more competitive at a price level; they've also been able to brand their companies in terms of companies that are the most sustainable in our country - and that helps them get market share, it also helps them attract a new labor force. The 'gen Xers and Ys' are all over this, sustainability is important to them. So the business case is being made for sustainability. Of course it requires some investment and everyone is minding their dollars given this economy, but like I said, it is irrefutable that by making these sorts of investments, reducing the dependency on foreign oil consumption, retro fitting your lights, building Leeds Certified buildings, all of those things are paying out for companies, and we're just beginning to understand how this is affecting our overall economy and productivity of our businesses." The City of Denver and André are very involved with the Sustainable Opportunities Summit & Expo on March 2-4, Our theme this year is "A Time to Accelerate"...we'll see you there.

The mobile web and many opportunities to partner
Steven Willmott, CEO, 3scale networks enclosure-voice 1232_ 6/25/12 - Here, again at the Glue Conference in Broomfield, Colorado. This is a very exciting conference and the only one of its kind in the country. There are so many interesting companies and so much to learn about. We're talking with Steve Willmott, CEO of 3scale networks. We asked Steve for an overview of what 3scale networks does. "Right now, many people have websites and that's how they engage with their customers. Now with the mobile web there are many opportunities to partner. For instance, if you have content or a service and you'd like to spread it around to different places not just your own website, 3 scale enables you to put those technical channels in place so that mobile applications and partners can get your data or service directly without having to go via your web site. It's a little bit like having your database and sharing that with partners. You might charge them for that data or allow them to use it but to put your brand on their website for example. Steven explains more. Larry pointed out that a lot of people are concerned with security in the cloud. Steve thinks that is a number one concern. It's very important to keep data secure, especially if it's personal data of your customers - or your own. Cloud has advantages and disadvantages. One of these is obviously, the data in the cloud is a little bit out of your control...listen for more...

      If you look at the cable industry, it's reinvented itself many times. Fifty percent of our revenue today comes from products and services we didn't have ten years ago, so we have definitely evolved. Having said that... Mike Fries is President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Global (LGI).

Leonard Nimoy, way above and beyond Spock
Leonard Nimoy with Larry Nelson - LN Meets LNenclosure-voice 1235_ 7/2/12 - In April 2010, at the 26th National Space Symposium, Larry and Pat had an opportunity to have a discussion with Leonard Nimoy of Star Trek fame. But Nimoy is so much more than that. They decided to talk about other topics that help us learn more about him and what has shaped his character over the past 79 years as well as understanding his hot buttons. We started out by reflecting on some poetry Leonard read as 'whale noise' was heard in the background...that was decades ago but it opened up insights to his current interests and concerns. When asked, Is there something businesses can do to motivate children?" His reply was an ouch. "I'm not a sociologist, I'm not a businessman, I can't speak intelligently about that. I'll tell you what I am concerned about; I'm concerned about how much television kids watch that is not uplifting, or educational or inspiring in any way. It's all about celebrity, and if you're celebrity, come and tell us about your celebrity. What have you accomplished? I'm a celebrity - I'm famous for having a lot of children, so I want a TV show - It's crazy. What we have descended to in our education, it's crazy! It's really sad, I could go on about that, I'm not going to." He had a great deal say about advice he would give to someone following his career path. "The biggest fantasy, myth about my work, about being an actor is people who think a look will get you somewhere, be at the right place and time, that kind of thing - luck plays a big role, but I never believed that, not even as a teenager...Education, it's all about education. Learn, learn, learn and devote yourself to a profession. Be professional about it." Larry asked, "Do you feel the U.S. is losing its position in terms of space?" Leonard replied, "Yes, I don't know to what degree this is true. I don't want to be an alarmist about this, but I do think we've got some work to do." We did end with a Vulcan salute. Listen for much, much more...

Feld-Weiser One-on-One: Feld on Work-Life Balance
Brad Feld & Phil Weiser, One-on-One Series, F
           eld on Work/Life Balanceenclosure-voice 1229_ 6/25/12 [Pub. 6-15-2009] - For entrepreneurs, lawyers and other professionals, work-life balance is often a topic that individuals plan on thinking about when they have time. Phil Weiser, Dean of the Law School, University of Colorado - Boulder, engages in a discussion with Brad Feld, Managing Partner, Foundry Group, about a topic that is very elusive for many entrepreneurs. Brad said, "This topic took me 15 years, a failed first marriage, and my current wife (Amy Batchelor) almost calling it quits for me to realize that I had to figure out what 'work-life balance' meant to me." This recognition lead to Brad's commitment to a series of rules, which evolved into a set of habits that include: 1. Spend time away; 2. Life dinner; 3. Segment space; 4. Be present; 5. Meditate. Notably, Brad's view on life-work balance is not that working hard is not important; it's that "balance improves the quality/quantity of work that you can get done and you become more effective at accomplishing stuff." Listen to the entire Feld & Weiser, One-on-One on Work-Life Balance.

Cloud-based log management and analytics for security
Christian Beegden, CoFounder/ CTO, Sumo 
        Logic enclosure-voice 1231_ 6/25/12 - A big question surrounding Cloud services and applications has to do with security. We've asked Christian Beedgen, founder and CTO of Sumo Logic to help us understand. Sumo Logic is a cloud-based log management and analytics service that leverages Big Data to deliver real-time IT insights, headquartered in Mountain View, California, we met Christian at Glue Con 2012. A cloud-based log management service eliminates the operational overhead and complexity of today's on-premise log management solutions. On-premise solutions quickly run into scaleability issues with increasing log volumes, and logs are voluminous. A cloud native solution with its elastic scaleability enables you to process all your log data with zero extra overhead. Sumo Logic was founded in April 2010 by Kumar Saurabh and Christian Beedgen, and received funding from Greylock Partners, Sutter Hill Ventures and angel investor Shlomo Kramer. The round of series B funding announced in January 2012 brings the company’s total venture capital backing to $20.5 million. . Sumo Logic modeled its approach on that of Google, according to Christian Beedgen, the company’s CTO and one of its Cofounders. Sumo Logic uses advanced machine learning algorithms to whittle down mountains of log file data into common groupings...
