Transcript:

I would like to ask you about the arab community
Do you feel that there is a good connection with the arab worlds
Like Egypt and Jordan and arab world at large
And I know that you are involved in the community aspect
In the founder of harvard arab alumni association
So I don’t know what you think about the connection or a Bridge
Between the arab world and the silicon valley or the US at large
I think the bridge is weak
I think the bridge is very weak
I think its in a nap
With few other organization
If you compared our network arab community in the US with silicon valley
And arab community for arab world with silicon valley
Then compare it with Indian community
Or compare it with east European community or the Chinese’s community etc
Its very very weak
We absolutely nap behind but its improving
Its improving a lot but still its very very weak
