Proud to work for Sun

I have a new role at Sun. I'm a Technical Evangelist in the Sun Startup Essentials team. This is a dedicated team at Sun that helps interesting new startups navigate the complicated world of Web 2.0 technology and funding. If you are a Startup you need to apply to become part of this program. We provide some excellent benefits.

I was at the Hatchery Event in NY last week. I met some wonder folks there and had a great time.

Lynn Brewer is the the real Enron whistleblower. She is the founder of the The Integrity Institute As the name suggest they provide Advanced Corporate Performance Analytics with more than just financials as the basis. She presented her vision during the event and I had an opportunity to talk with her after the event. She mentioned that Sun is among the best in the industry in her integrity rating. Wow! I felt so proud to be part of such a company in these days when we hear of so many scandals.

I also met Jonathan Askin who is the Director of Brooklyn Law School for Incubator & Policy Clinic. He also confirmed that Sun almost always is on the right side on the policy issues. Yes, I do work for a company that not only "Does no evil" but also wants to "Do good" for the right reasons.
