I hope the waiting wasn’t too long.
Please welcome my friend and think-tank AFIDORA & business university HEC Paris fellow Alexandre Lucas, a new contributor on Tech IT Easy.
From Day 1, I had the idea of opening this blog to different friend-contributors, and when Alex told me about his willingness to post his ideas, it just looked like the perfect opportunity to offer my readership even better analyses on the high-tech industry.
Alexandre, just like me, is in the process of learning everything about the Information Technology industry, since he’ll join Goldman Sachs as an investment banker in the Technology & Media group upon graduation, in June 2007.
So whilst my posts often deal with the technology itself & entrepreneurship, Alex’s post I guess will focus more on commenting high-tech news from a corporate strategy & finance viewpoint. Alex will for sure provide us with great strategy insights and financial tips, and I’m glad to have him here as of today with me.
One might ask why Alex doesn’t open his own blog: basically, Alex’s contribution will be very punctual. He might blog 8 posts in a row and then stop blogging for 3 months. Being a guest, he is most welcome anytime he feels he’s got something interesting to share. You might expect other friends to join me in the Tech IT Easy adventure later on.
This being said, thank you in advance for leaving a greeting comment to Alex, my first blogging guest ever, for his soon to come first post ever.
What, no podcasts? I was sure you were announcing to start videoblogging… =)
oh well, maybe next month? =)

Maybe next month indeed. Alex lives on the HEC Paris campus, in Jouy-en-Josas, 15 minutes away from the Ecole Centrale Paris campus – where I do live. So, you’ll agree with me that we live too far away to videopodcast ourselves));

Hey cool. I definitely wasn’t expecting this. Welcome, Mr. Lucas!

Thank you for your compliments Alexandra. But I still believe Alex will bring a lot to this blog.
