Hi all - I'm the director of Gaza Sky Geeks. Great to see this conversation taking place. Thanks to all of you who have supported our work! A new piece was just written about us by NPR, and if you Googled "Gaza" yesterday, this was one of the top search results: http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2014/12/14/370139...
Our crowdfunding campaign has been extended until January 8. If you haven't already supported and told your friends about it, please do! It's at http://www.gazastarts.com.
I'll also be in the Bay Area from Dec 22 - Jan 6, and while I'll be primarily focused on friends & family, I'd be happy to set up a coffee side chat if entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley want to hear what it's like to launch startups in Gaza.
For those of you in Israel, I pass through Jerusalem frequently and Tel Aviv occasionally, and can also meet up there.
When I arrived to Gaza over a year ago, I had no idea what I'd find. What's made me so dedicated to Gaza Sky Geeks is the untapped potential I see. As we nurture startups in Gaza, one of our goals is to develop expertise in launching startups in frontier markets more broadly. Do reach out to us at [email protected] if you'd like to engage with our work.
