Korea StartUp Festival 2017
I will be heading to this today and I am looking forward to meeting killer Korean startups, being cold and eating some Shack Shake – I may have to try one of their new location as well :: https://www.shakeshack.com/location/seoul-south-korea-cheongdam/
CYA
Amit Anand at WD Indonesia 17
Good to see the boss man speaking – I always learn a few more things every time I hear him.
Not missing the USA
I miss my family a ton. I miss old friends, camping, shake shack and long motorcycle rides along the Cali coast to nowhere. I really miss those things.
But what is going in America is scary. Trump, the FCC and the takeover of large unchecked tech giants is not a great future.
If you don’t already read Redef – you should start. Great daily curation of awesome web reads and the best part – the Rant from Jason Hirschhorn the Curator.
I love his work. I am hoping him and the Prof get together some time for a the Prof’s video series.
Candid TIA funding analysis
Good read if you haven’t seen it yet :: http://limdershing.blogspot.com/2015/06/analysis-on-techinasia-fundraising.html
Follow up from an earlier post but based on the latest funding round.
Good stuff to discuss – especially the founder’s equity levels.
Congrats to TIA on the round and wish Dershing would blog more.

Dell Education Chromebook
Been wanting to get my son a laptop since I don’t think an iPad makes the best machine given the lack of keyboard and I wanted something cheaper for obvious reasons.
The school does a lot of stuff with Google so figured a Chromebook makes the most sense.
I use Wirecutter normally to hone in on things but unfortunately Wriecutter is totally made for the USA – something I am hoping they could get better at under NYT. Example would be showing links that work for the region you are in or highlighting stuff that ships globally.
Fortunately for the Dell Education Chromebook – Amazon will ship it to Singaore.
Use my link though – for obvious reasons. 😉
