Silicon Valley Culture is changing the world. The environment leads its entrepreneurs through an amazing journey. Watch the 8 phases through which all go through once decided to be part of the entrepreneurial tech ecosystem.
The EXIT: For many entrepreneurs that’s an exciting feeling.
But the acquisition process can also be intimidating and even confusing. Part of the reason for that is there are no set rules for how an acquisition occurs.
You may not know why a potential buyer is calling, what exactly they want, or what to expect throughout the process.
Tommaso shares valuable lessons learned for Startup Founders on how to navigate towards and through the exit.
It's easy to look at where you are and where you want to be and think, “I’ll never get there” and plateau with your current skill set.
Maybe you’re a developer who is looking to level up their career. Maybe you’re someone who wants to break into a development career for the first time.
Wherever you’re at, I want to teach you the same methods I use every single day to keep my skills sharp and to keep myself connected to interesting and rewarding projects and relationships.
MVP-style influencer marketing programs can be strategic for your company. The oldest influencer program in enterprise IT & technology was the Microsoft MVP Program.

In May 2015 a chain of encounters led a small group of strangers to meet, on and offline, and revive the WordPress Italian Community. After endless hours of chats on Slack, we have regular monthly meetups in half a dozen cities, contributor meetings and at least 2 WordCamps planned for 2016. This is our story and we hope it can be your community’s story too.

Digital experiences across multiple languages and channels and markets bring a new level of complexity to an omni-channel strategy. See how top brands are leverage people, process and technology to deliver a first rate experience.
Workshop on getting to grips with digital strategy by thinking like a network.

Lots of stuff on Netflix in there too.
Cross device applications have become more common among major companies in the last few years. It's a real challenge to preserve Agility and to keep your lead time short enough over 10 or 20 applications which also have to grow together… Were shall we start, how can we organize the team to make it work flawlessly? Rock bands from the late 60's and early 70's are a reference for a lot of people across several domains: Artists, Inventors, Scientists, and many more.

A mythic rock band with charismatic members and a lot of interesting patterns with many similarities to Scrum. They that helped us to make our teams rock and build powerful, complex yet really Agile products.
Going from "camp..." to "Oh, Wow, THAT CAMP!"
Some summer camps are still practitioners of the old campfire tradition: telling great stories.
I find that that skill set is diminishing. When I go to visit camps in the summer I rarely see that awesome moment of kids leaning forward in anticipation while a leader holds them in wrap attention with tales of adventure or of heroes overcoming great odds.
We're missing something very important.
That storytelling skill will be the one thing that we can do to fight the malaise of our industry: camp is dying.
In this keynote address, I will be talking about ways to tell the amazing stories of the transformation power of camp and showing some cool examples from the world of summer camp (and beyond!)
Together we can save camp!

"Use Storytelling as a Strategic Business tool" by Maria MocerinoTheFamily
When you talk about your project, it's not about what you say but how you say it. Sure, figures and statistics are essential but you'll never seduce anyone with just facts and figures.
So how will you stand out? Storytelling is a skill and like any skill, you need to practice. This will help you to stand out from the crowd and acquire more clients, employees, investors, or...anyone really ;)
Maria is a Public Speaking Coach as well as a writer/performer and TheFamily's very own English teacher.

Progress or activism? You want so badly not to fail, that you work day and night without taking a break and care for yourself and your employees. It can be hard to accept that sometimes the best thing to do to achieve top performance is to stop working and start “playing”. Of course, you don’t want to switch to the opposite end of the spectrum and play too hard without putting in the work. Once you find the balance between work and “recharge”, you can avoid the dangers of burnout and enjoy your work much more. But how to avoid falling into the culture trap of all work and no play?

According to Juliet (Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet), a name should mean nothing, but for a startup, it’s a completely different story. Choosing a name for your startup can be one of the most important decisions you make in the beginning, and for a good reason: it is the most impactful choices you’ll take. That’s why it is pretty common, that startups before getting product-market fit change their names a couple times. Unfortunately, not every startup gets enough time and they realize too late that they chose a lame name. But what is in a name?
Creative Traction Methodology - For Early Stage StartupsTommaso Di Bartolo
How to build a mindset that gets a new product traction? 99% of all startups are forced to give up because they lack traction. As founders are thrilled and captivated to build a product that could change the world - the majority downright neglects to put equal efforts towards how to differentiate in taking the product to market. The difference between those who make it to get traction and the rest lies in the innovator’s mindset.
China’s Solar Industry and the U.S. Anti-Dumping/Anti-Subsidy Trade Casechinaglobaltrade
This report by ChinaGlobalTrade.com covers the anti-subsidy and anti-dumping trade case against Chinese manufacturers of solar cells, which is currently entering its final stages of investigation at the U.S. Department of Commerce. The report offers a balanced, fact-based discussion of the trade case; an exploration of how China's solar industry has grown so big so fast; and a thorough analysis of what might be the consequences – many of them likely unintended – of 35 percent tariffs on U.S. imports of solar cells from China. For a new sense of how the solar industry got to where it is and where we should go from here – a path that mutually benefits us all – check out the solar manufacturing report here.

Hello, my name is Mickey and I'm a UX / UI Designer. From my portfolio you will see some of the projects I've completed for my User Experience Immersive course at General Assembly. Thanks for reading!
Education systems across the West have degenerated into a series of memory tests and the quest to hit abstract performance targets and measures. So students that appear well qualified are often unable to apply the most basic of mathematical, scientific, engineering or logical principles, and nor do they have a good appreciation of history or design. This does not bode well for a future of faster change and greater complexity.
“At the most basic level our society it is about the survival of the most adaptable”
For sure; today’s education and learning methodologies have to move toward more experimental and experiential working in order to reinforce the basics whilst engendering far greater understanding. Early specialism has also to be reversed with all students studying a broader range of topics through school and on into college and/or university.
“Education isn’t something you have to get done and dusted - it is a lifelong pursuit”
There is a further need to recognize that the (so-called) academic and practical streams are afforded equal importance! To get the best out of teams/groups all members have to share a common base of understanding and appreciation. In turn, this can be enabled and supported by Just-in-Time education and training-on-line. But there is much more….

Metaverse Discovery. How companies metaverse. By Tommaso Di BartoloTommaso Di Bartolo
Like the Internet before it, web2, the metaverse is a virtual experience bringing people, companies, and products together in both digital and real environments to create new economic opportunities. The groundwork is already laid. People and organizations jumping in are gaining invaluable experience, meeting customers, developing revenue streams, and even shaping metaverse culture. Learn how to find the right opportunities in this fast-moving universe of the Web3 world.
The metaverse brings new opportunities for consumers and brands to interact and exchange in a digital frontier. Perhaps the most exciting part about the metaverse is that the experience is truly open to consumers, creators, and companies. In a (virtual) world where anything is possible, brands have limitless possibilities to define the future of engagement and create wholly new revenue streams. We call this the Metaverse Economy. It’s a sandbox, bringing new opportunities and challenges.
What part of the metaverse should you make a play in? How do you connect with consumers in this space? What digital assets and products should you create? Should you tie those assets to the real world? And then there’s the simple (yet complicated) questions that you need to get off the ground. Questions like: “What is the metaverse?"

Tommaso Di Bartolo expanding upon how to sense, recognize and mature opportunities leveraging ideation techniques.
Ideation is the creative process of generating new ideas, which can be accomplished through a variety of ideation techniques, such as brainstorming and prototyping. If done right, ideation is what helps founders and executives determine the right problem to solve and how to solve it.
The goal of design thinking is to empathize with customers, uncover the non-obvious pain points they’re experiencing, and learn more about how the current solutions in the marketplace aren’t meeting users’ needs. It’s often in those gaps where companies can spot the best business opportunities.
Silicon Valley is not a Geolocation but an Ecosystem. How can you become part of it. In this talk Tommaso Di Bartolo expands upon 9 things that mold / shape non-silicon valley entrepreneurs when stepping into Silicon Valley. Watch the talk live on: https://www.facebook.com/groups/be.whatittakes/

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
