For the next three month, thirty startups work out ouf the transformed "ewz-Unterwerk Selnau" in Zurich
Gerry Sullivan agreed to take on the CEO of the AC for the first year but I think he's really happy to go back to his businesses and his game theory consulting. They (Gerry included) recruited this guy to replace him. He's the former Director of Commercialization at the University of Toronto, and by all accounts was highly successful there. So, he ought to know a thing or two about helping techies start businesses (which is basically the core mission of the AC).
I haven't talked to him at all so I can't give any personal account. However he has also joined UW as their new VP of Commercialization. Having the same person in that job and running the AC should be interesting.
天気が良いのでベランダで焼き肉でもしよう、と準備。
備長炭は火が付きにくいのだけれども、安価な火起こしを使うことで、ものの５分で十分な着火が可能。
最初、奥のカセットガス・コンロで着火を試みたら微風でも火が安定しないんで、コールマンの508Aで試したら、あっという間に着火できた。さすが508Aの火力は強いなぁ。
Bobbi Holte is one of the people I interact with most frequently at the AC. She's formerly CFO of DSPFactory, a successful Waterloo startup, and other things including an accountant.
In the background, they've created a yearly award for volunteering, and named it after Gary Pooley (my primary advisor there) who himself has contributed a ton to the AC as a volunteer. The first award goes to Yvan Couture, a very useful guy to know, always ready to speak his mind on business and startups. (Sometimes he's right too ;-)

Two shots from a roll of accelerated fuji 200 iso film. I dev'd them first in Rodinal 1+100 for an hour stand, then put them through the fuji c-41 kit. I skipped the bleach.
The base is almost completely opaque, so I'll probably actually bleach them when I get the chance, there does seem to be -some- colour in them. The second is just the blue channel from another picture, for some reason the rodinal adjacency effects only turned up on the blue channel ...
GVP A3001 accelerator. 68030 @ 25Mhz and a RAM expansion that can take up to 8M in 1M 30pin SIMMs. It also has an IDE interface, but it's ancient and won't handle modern drives.

India Accelerator is a sector and stage agnostic startup accelerator, which has programs spread over 4 months where 5~10 selected start-ups will be provided with technology, business services and incubation space along with intense mentoring focused on the individuality of product and business development.

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab ), located in Batavia near Chicago, Illinois, is a U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory specializing in high-energy particle physics. As of January 1, 2007, Fermilab is operated by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC, a joint venture of the University of Chicago and the Universities Research Association (URA). URA is a consortium of 91 leading research oriented universities primarily in the United States, with members also in Canada, Japan, and Italy. Fermilab is a part of the Illinois Technology and Research Corridor.
Fermilab's Tevatron is a landmark particle accelerator; at 6.28 kilometers (4 miles) in circumference, it is the world's second highest energy particle accelerator (LHC is 27 kilometres in circumference). In 1995, both the CDF and D0 (detectors which utilize the Tevatron) experiments announced the discovery of the top quark. In addition to high energy collider physics, Fermilab is also host to a number of smaller fixed target experiments and neutrino experiments, such as MiniBooNE (Mini Booster Neutrino Experiment), SciBooNE (SciBar Booster Neutrino Experiment) and MINOS (Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search). The MiniBooNE detector is a 40-foot (12-meter) diameter sphere which contains 800 tons of mineral oil lined with 1520 individual phototube detectors. An estimated 1 million neutrino events are recorded each year. SciBooNE is the newest neutrino experiment at Fermilab; it sits in the same neutrino beam as MiniBooNE but has fine-grained tracking capabilities. The MINOS experiment uses Fermilab's NuMI (Neutrinos at the Main Injector) beam, which is an intense beam of neutrinos that travels 735km through the Earth to the Soudan Mine in Minnesota.
In the public realm, Fermilab is host to many cultural events, not only public science lectures and symposia, but classical and contemporary music concerts, folk dancing and arts galleries, when the Homeland Security Advisory System permits. Currently the site is open to all visitors from dawn to dusk who present valid photo identification.
