One thing I have been wondering about Obama and what he said yesterday is what he means for Silicon Valley and Industry/Tech generally. Specifically, what does it mean to eliminate capital gains for start-ups, and stopping tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas and giving them to companies that create jobs in the US of A? To keep the discussion in one place, I’d like–with the indulgence of PTH adminstoration, to invite folks to discuss this on our Wadi Blog in Silicon Valley:

Though for issues specifically related to tech and industry in Pakistan and/or NEDians role in this, let’s talk here, or on the Pak Tea House.

We’ve been on hiatus here at NED Nama for a bit. It had to do with our Editor having some catching up to do, and some organizational work to be done.
The good news, as you will see in the immediate future includes:
- NED Alumni Association of Silicon Valley (NEDians SV) is being formalized as an organization.
- NED Alumni Association of Southern California (NEDAASC) is coming to fruition, too.
- Two academic competitions are being held at NED (TechElite08 and SPEC2008), and which we’re hoping to get regular updates on.
- … more and regular information that you, our readers will send in…right?
