One of my favorite areas of technology had a thought leader, a very popular figure. I happened to kickstart an association with that gentleman but surprisingly a big misunderstanding occurred between us.

I have a Facebook memory – exactly a year back in March 2020 was the first time in history we conducted a completely online meeting via a video-conferencing application joining 60+ entrepreneurs across the state for a breakfast meeting. Time flies,…

Just happened to notice mind blowing news from Russia that the oldest plant ever to be regenerated has been grown from 32000-year-old seeds.
