Technology Against Closed Despotic Regimes – For Scenario Magazine.
My latest contribution for Scenario Magazine, about how technology has played a significant role against Egypt’s despotic regime.
After I wrote this article new riots erupted at Tahrir Square in Cairo, with the terrible consequence that even more people lost their lives fighting for freedom and democracy against their regime.
The journey towards a new and better country has just started for Egypt, while Europe worries about recession, the Egyptian people are fighting for basic human rights. But as a wonderful Egyptian friend and entrepreneur puts it; we are optimistic – we have to be.
Thanks to all the amazing Egyptian entrepreneurs and the US and Danish mentors, for an unforgettable journey and experience, June 2011 in Cairo .
