Transcript:

My name is Ramy Adeeb from Egypt
Born and raised in Egypt till the age of 16
I learned how to program in Egypt
My passion for computers started when I was a little kid
My father was working in the army
Sometimes I used to go with my father to work ,
They had computers there so I was playing with it
And I was learning MS-DOS too
At the age of 16 we moved to the United State
I studied computer science in Harvard University
After that I finished my MBA in Stanford University
My professional background started to grow after the finishing college
I worked for a startup company here in San Francisco called Tellme Networks
Tellme was a startup company specialized in voice technology
I worked there for 7 years
We built the company when we were 3 or 4 or maybe 10 to 15 people in a garage
The company got bigger and bigger till we reached 300 engineers
Then Microsoft bought our company in 2007
After that I worked in Venture Capital company for 2 years
Then I decided to leave the investment business
and went back to the startup companies so I can build my own product
cause this is what I’m really passionate about
