Yesterday was the 1st day in a week full of activities here in Amman, yesterday’s launch was very good, I attended for about 3 hours then I had to bail out, sadly i forgot to take my camera so I wont be sharing any photos, I would have loved to record Sami Shalabi’s speech which I found very interesting and useful. He explained how he started his latest business Zingku which was later acquired by Google.

Reid Hoffman CEO of LinkedIn, Joi Ito from Creative Commons, Mitchell Baker From Firefox and Habib Haddad from Yamli are also among the people attending the event.

Yesterday was a great networking opportunity as well, I met some old friends and was able to talk about some potential partnerships for Wizards with other companies in the gaming field in the US.

More events are coming up starting today with the Entrepreneurship Forum which I am going to try my best to attend. You can RSVP here. Other events include a speed networking event tomorrow and Souq Tijartina.

You can learn more about this week on Unleashing Designs as well.
