We did it #SussexSquad! Clean water is now running for 250 families and 600 children in a village in Biafra, inspired by #MeghanMarkle’s #40x40 initiative and with all your generosity. Getting this jubilant video made yesterday the best day I’ve had in 7 years. Thank you so much!

[Ian @isexton]

Hi Squaddies! I wonder if you can help me? I’ve worked with dozens of Squaddies over the last few months & it’s been immensely rewarding. I need your help for some Squaddies who have turned to me to provide clean water for the families in their community.

I'm launching Tinamou Advisory.

After four decades of building and scaling enterprise technology businesses, most recently with the great people at Instacart, five startups and five successful exits, and a lot of hard lessons, it's time to put that experience to work in a different way.

Tinamou Advisory works with technology companies, investors, and PE-backed businesses on the challenges that actually move the needle: AI and data commercialization, go-to-market transformation, enterprise revenue growth, and strategic partnerships.

I've spent most of my career being brought in to fix commercial engines that weren't working. That's what Tinamou is built around.

If that sounds relevant to something you're working on, or if you know someone it might, I'd love to hear from you.

P.S. On the name: "Tina mou" is my nickname for my wife Constantina (an actual Greek Goddess). It also happens to be the name of the street where we own property. And a Tinamou is an ancient, resilient bird native to South America, one of the oldest bird families on earth, that has quietly survived and adapted for over 80 million years. Three layers of meaning I didn't plan, but couldn't ignore.

@trudyspeaks Yes. I got him cream, which works. He just forgets to use it! He has terrible allergies. They seem to be connected.

My Grandson, Dymitri, didn’t just graduate from his Bachelor’s in Cybersecurity, Summa Cum Laude, he got a perfect 4.0 GPA!

I’m his Dad too, because I adopted him. I couldn’t be more proud.

[Ian @isexton]

@bayougal86 @IAmSophiaNelson Ha! You’re a stickler, but you’re correct!

[Ian @isexton]

@peggy_west33588 Wonderful! Working from home is also important to Dymitri. It’s good to hear your Nephew enjoys it so much.

[Ian @isexton]

I will. Thanks! Your nephew is in a good place. Dymitri has a couple of offers already. One comes with a fully funded MBA in Cybersecurity. He thinks he’s had enough academics for now though. He wants to get to work. He is planning on getting an AI Cybersecurity certification though.

[Ian @isexton]

@AmandaManares Yes. We were on a day trip today. Just the two of us. We had an early start. This was a breakfast stop. He waited 4 days until he could tell me in person. We had a wonderful day together! ❤️

[Ian @isexton]

@LIHIpdx Thank you! He was born smart! He did blame me for the 4.0 though. I home schooled him for high school, and, whenever he got a 98, I would tease him and ask him what happened to the 2%!

Neither of us is inclined to stick around to identify them!

Let’s have some fun. Here are some hilarious reviews of the Melania “movie”.
