Here it is, another Rosh Hashanah arriving, and the previous one still seems so recent. I looked back at my wishes from last year, and some of them came true. Obama won and showed the world what Leadership 2.0 is all about. Hapoel Haifa won, made it to the Israeli premier league, and did that with a lot of passion, commitment and style.
This year I decided to be a bit more specific, something beyond just general health and world peace. So, here are my 3 wishes for the new Jewish year:
- 5 great deals: When I talk about deals, I mean it in the most broad sense. Some combination of exits, strategic accounts, partnerships or massive distribution. 5 amazing business deals that will make a direct or indirect influence on Gemini’s success.
- 3 amazing rock concerts: I already have tickets for Leonard Cohen, Shalom Hanoch (1AM at the Barby) and Pearl Jam (again). Although we are back in Israel, I hope to attend at least 3 world class rock concerts with real emotional impact.
- 1 historical championship: Between the Patriots and Hapoel Haifa, how about another historic championship. Odds are low, but hey – I am asking for just one.
Add 5+3+1 and it equals Nine(9), the Hebrew letters of the new Jewish Year: תש”ע.
Shana Tova!

You can (should) aim higher...
c'mon - if this is what you wish you need to change job. Doesn't a VC want X12 at least? ;)
Shana Tova!

P.S
* As for the 'great' deal - you missed us...
