It was so cool hearing about your projects, and your energy, and your passion, and your creativity! I’m super excited about working more with you all the coming weeks, and going even deeper into your projects, and exploring ways to make each and every one of them a success. 
DOUBLE THANKS …
… to all those who gave feedback on the videos of other people as well. You learn most while giving and sharing with others. We’re starting gradually … but in future videos/etc we’re going to prioritize giving feedback from our side to those who gave feedback to others, and to those videos that have already received feedback from a number of other people. These elements are fundamental to the philosophy of a flipped classroom and project-based learning, and are critical to developing the rockstar entrepreneurship and leadership skills that help people compete locally / regionally / globally in a fast-moving world. (We’ll discuss more on these points later.)
I know some others were having some technical difficulty or were not able to post thus far … we look forward to hearing more about your projects soon as well!
cc @juanma, @rida, @razan, @kebbinour, @kifahbanna, @raneen.jd, etc
Yalla, have a good evening, and look forward to connecting again soon!
Cheers.
