@united Thanks for making my 2millionth mile special. Started w/ a special gift at the #UnitedLounge at 6am, followed by a million mile coin handed to me by Captain Kevin Ayres, flight 274, a handwritten note by the flight crew, and a shout out over the cabin PA. #loyalty

Been a fantastic 9 years at @reveleer. We have seen growth of over 100x in this timeframe. Couldn’t be prouder of this team

@BillAckman @realDonaldTrump ???? - what’s your point?

The country is 100% behind the president on fixing a global system of tariffs that has disadvantaged the country. But, business is a confidence game and confidence depends on trust. President @realDonaldTrump has elevated the tariff issue to the most important geopolitical issue in the world, and he has gotten everyone’s attention. So far, so good. And yes, other nations have taken advantage of the U.S. by protecting their home industries at the expense of millions of our jobs and economic growth in our country. But, by placing massive and disproportionate tariffs on our friends and our enemies alike and thereby launching a global economic war against the whole world at once, we are in the process of destroying confidence in our country as a trading partner, as a place to do business, and as a market to invest capital. The president has an opportunity to call a 90-day time out, negotiate and resolve unfair asymmetric tariff deals, and induce trillions of dollars of new investment in our country. If, on the other hand, on April 9th we launch economic nuclear war on every country in the world, business investment will grind to a halt, consumers will close their wallets and pocket books, and we will severely damage our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitate. What CEO and what board of directors will be comfortable making large, long-term, economic commitments in our country in the middle of an economic nuclear war? I don’t know of one who will do so. When markets crash, new investment stops, consumers stop spending money, and businesses have no choice but to curtail investment and fire workers. And it is not just the big companies that will suffer. Small and medium size businesses and entrepreneurs will experience much greater pain. Almost no business can pass through an overnight massive increase in costs to their customers. And that’s true even if they have no debt, and, unfortunately, there is a massive amount of leverage in the system. Business is a confidence game. The president is losing the confidence of business leaders around the globe. The consequences for our country and the millions of our citizens who have supported the president — in particular low-income consumers who are already under a huge amount of economic stress — are going to be severely negative. This is not what we voted for. The President has an opportunity on Monday to call a time out and have the time to execute on fixing an unfair tariff system. Alternatively, we are heading for a self-induced, economic nuclear winter, and we should start hunkering down. May cooler heads prevail.

@ashishc78 @smartDataIncLtd Thanks @ashishc78. Appreciate the long term partnership. #SaaS

Great catching up with a @smartDataIncLtd customer, we've partnered with for over a decade! #inspiring to see his #HealthTech startup grow 10x, and proud to play a role. Excited to continue as a #strategic partner in their next big leap. Thanks, @Ackermanjay, always a pleasure!

Curious what people think of the new @Starbucks compostable lids? I find it harder to slowly sip a hot cup of coffee.

Congrats. Big win.

Looking forward to my first JHHS. Excited to meet up with some industry friends, new friends and peers. #learn #reflect

Finally rain comes to #LosAngeles.

Was out last week filming our annual kickoff video @reveleer. Always seeking to step it up.

@msuster Glad to see this post. 🙏

I biked in this morning. My house survived. Got valuables & sentimental things out. My heart goes out to all my friends - so many friends - who lost everything. I can’t explain why I got lucky and and embarrassed to even say it. But for anybody worried about me - I’m fine 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@msuster Stay safe Mark.

Thank you for all the kind emails, texts, tweets etc. I need to log off from exhaustion but will try to respond another time. We now know for sure houses in our neighborhood burned down. Winds expected to get worse over night. We won’t know anything until at least tomorrow, maybe longer. We are safe. People got out. But so devastated for all the people affected. We can rebuy stuff. Others will struggle more. So grateful for firefighters, first responders, police and everybody else who risks their life to help others.

And I questioned when a colleague asked why I chose @iah for a day meeting. #EternalOptimist

Thanks for the drive and conversation @lead_by_change.

@jasonlk Not an issue @reveleer this team is driving amazing innovation in healthcare - 100% growth off a strong base and profitable.

Probably only about 10% of VC backed software start-ups are growing fast enough to raise another round Why is the number that low? Because the top decile of 600+ of them barely hit "triple triple double double" Anything less isn't fast enough for a VC investment Anything less doesn't get you to IPO in 7-10 years

@VBCareAlliance @reveleer Thanks for acknowledging @VBCareAlliance

As physicians and other clinicians embrace #ValueBasedCare, technologies like #AI are crucial to efficient patient data management, according to @reveleer’s @Ackermanjay. Read more: bit.ly/4aeWwl6

Namaste

Curious as to why people think this disparity in rates exist between @Uber and @lyft. Seeing this with increasing frequency at least in #LosAngeles.

Congrats @UConnMBB on a great win. 1 more to go. #champion

Confident @UConnMBB fan. Go #Huskies

Let’s go @UConnHuskies. #MFinalFour
