Highlights
Huge news for the startup cities movement both because @MarkLutter and the @CCIdotCity are going to be cooking up a ton more cool initiatives like this in Africa and beyond, and because @kurtislockhart is an absolutely beast and the work they are doing to develop a new university ecosystem on Zanzibar is going to fit really well with the new special zones being established on Zanzibar. Keep an eye on @MarkLutter @CCIdotCity and @kurtislockhart @AfricaUrbanLab
Sending love to all my Jewish friends on this anniversary of the October 7th atrocity.
Also expressing my distain for the anti-Israel protests happening around the world today. Regardless of your views on the ongoing conflict, the lack of basic civility that leads people to feel obliged to do this today is discouraging.
