Back from the US-Israel New Media Business Exchange

Yesterday afternoon in Atlanta I attended the "Gala Reception" of the US-Israel New Media Business Exchange held in the shadows of CNN at the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.

I appreciated the warm greeting that I got from both Tom Glaser and Laurence Olivier and everyone associated with the US-Israel New Media Business Exchange. I also appreciated the opportunity to catch up with some of my friends from Israel who were connected to the Israeli companies that were showcased, including: 5Min, Arootz, Asankya, BlogTV, Digitalsmiths, Dyuna, Extend Technologies, Gumiyo, Hingi, i-Mature, MuseStorm, Oversi, Pando, Playcast, PLYmedia, Radvision, Scopus Video Networks, SimplyGen, Speedbit and VBox Communications.

I applaud the efforts of the on-going efforts of the American-Israel Chamber of Commerce and look forward to being part of their future events. I also wanted to thank Turner Broadcasting for their contributions to this event.
