Hanging with Rasha Hasaneen
I was treated to lunch by former Colleague at Hitachi Data Systems Rasha today. She was involved in the strategy group at HDS, and is now involved in the strategy department at SAP a few blocks away from PodTech.
We had some interesting conversations on how Social Media is impacting many different businesses from Enterprise Storage to even the ERP/CRM space. She’s been aware for some time that Social Media impacting nearly every line of business, politics, and information. I’m sure we’ll be talking again.
She showed me some killer pics of her most recent trip to her birthplace in Egypt, hopefully she’ll post the pics online and leave a link in the comments here. Rasha was known for being involved in the New Orleans relief process, pretty cool gal. See you around Palo Alto!
