GMIC SV to Connect US Mobile Internet Companies to Fastest Growth Overseas Markets

Scores of US companies have already made the move to capture market share abroad.  Learn from companies like Flipboard which worked with Chinese partners, localized their app, and now have more downloads in China than in the US. Qualcomm has seen record growth in developing markets within BRIC nations, where local handset brands have launched to compete with behemoths Apple and Samsung. Venture capitalists investing in startups with a global eye are raising record funds, particularly those who can efficiently monetize the hundreds of millions of users in emerging markets.

The Mayors Office of Civic Innovation has launched in partnership with Gray Area Foundation for the Arts (GAFFTA), Office of Economic Workforce Development, sf.citi, San Francisco Travel, and Golightly House to spotlight the organizations and entrepreneurs that make up today’s generation of innovators.

Innovation Month helps tell the story of San Francisco as the best place to live, work and play. More than any other city, San Francisco is uniquely poised to innovate and invent the future right here, right now, by capitalizing on our greatest resource – our people. And innovation isn’t just about technology – it’s about a different way of thinking and approaching our problems. It is through innovative approaches to crime fighting and community involvement that San Francisco remains one of the safest big cities in America. It is through new ways to make it easier for companies to do business in SF.

Logan is launching a tech start up but ran into a common problem like so many start up hopefuls… locating a talented co founder. He decided to organize a Meet Up in order to hopefully find his tech match as well as help others.

Members are invited to identify themselves as founders, cofounders, non technical, and technical. In hopes of wooing a mate, the member stand in front of an eager group of hopefuls and give their best 60 second pitch!

Tempted to attend but have no idea what C++ is, no worries!!! There were non technical start ups eager to expand. One that caught my attention was founded by Antonia Townsend. TheEnclosed.com is taking a new approach to underwear! Antonia’s new start up ships luxury knickers monthly! A whole new way to say “I LOVE YOU”! I doubt 1800Flowers.com will be adding this service so you better stick with TheEnclosed.com

Graham Hunter was knighted as “All things meeting”, meaning he will keep record, attendance, smile, as well as shoot out a few tweets, which is fitting seeing as he is head of a start up marketing firm . Visit Grahamhunter.org

Living in the moment

“If the past or the future existed some scientist would have discovered it by now” Eckhart Tolle.

You cannot live in the past or the future, they do not exist . The only moment you have is this one.

You spent your entire adolescent being programmed to look in the future or work through the past but no one ever tells you how to actually live your REAL life. Real life as in the one you are in right now. Its amazing we literally live in the eternal now!

Is it hard being an Android in Silicon Valley?

Many look at me as if I work for NASA. In complete awe and amazement. They look down at my hand as if to say “What is that?” Where do you get that? And is that made on earth?

Being in the tech hub of the world people expect you to have Apple, and why shouldn’t they….the international Global headquarters is down the street. However I am making a bold statement and I back Samsung. Which I am not going to lie it can be very lonely,but a GREAT conversation starter!

Yes its actually made by Samsung, right here on this planet
