I had the good fortune of interviewing
Kyrgyz expat
Erdin Beshimov on
my
MaximizingProgress.tv show. Erdin's newly admitted to the MIT
Sloan MBA class of 2011 and is already connected to the MIT
TechLink and
E-Club networks and plans to be part of the
Entrepreneurship & Innovation program run by MIT
Entrepreneurship Center Chairman, Professor
Ed Roberts. Erdin and I discussed both the challenges and opportunities facing
Kyrgyzstan
-- both the historical drastic changes following the collapse of the Soviet Union and Western economist inspired "
Shock Therapy", plus the more recent boom and bust investments in tourism, resource exploitation, and more. Furthermore, we covered a wide range of entrepreneurial opportunities and interests, including the need to dramatically improve the area of salesforce software. I think viewers were witnessing the
birth of a startup!
