Frank Quattrone leading Silicon Valley Tech Deals

Posted on April 8, 2011 by MyOrbit-Team| Leave a comment

http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRfEHlX2l_-pd47Ht9QgESj16OJ8HxGSUkbDZQBTSAkhhFblS_JFrank Quattrone has re-emerged as the top investment banker in the Silicon Valley after coming out from the legal tangles and two court cases in the past years (one trial resulted in hung jury and the other resulted in a conviction, which was overturned by a higher court). Over the last 2 years, as Wall Street giants like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley reduced focus from early stage tech ventures to focus on main stream cash flow businesses, Frank Quattrone was well placed with his vast executive network in Silicon Valley to capture the market by offering his tech business selling expertise and services to tech companies wanting to sell out or raise growth capital.

It is estimated that Frank Quattrone now advises about 20 companies through his company Qatalyst Group, from giant Google to National Semiconductor, and smaller start ups. He was involved in the  deals, including EMC’s purchase of Data Domain. The Qatalyst Group is beleievd to be at no. 3, behind Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, on technology deals above $1 billion so far this year. That’s very going indeed by someone who was almost written off a few years ago.

UN Coalition launches attacks on Gaddafi’s military in Libya

Posted on March 20, 2011 by MyOrbit-Team| 1 Comment

UN operations in Libya began on night of 19 March 2011, and they are likely to end within a few days. France and UK Air Forces are leading the UN Coalition attack on Col Gaddafi’s military in Libya. US Naval forces have fired 100+ tomahawk missiles to support the Operation Odyssey’s goals. Residents of Tripoli heard explosions on the eastern side of the capital. They all say they had enough of Col Gaddafi and wants him to step down and that people of Libya will be happy to see Col Gaddafi go away as soon as possible. Col Gaddafi showed his colors when he declared ceasefire on Friday night and initiated his military attack on Benghazi’s 670,000 people shows that he is ready to kill his own people to retain power. Meanwhile, Al-Jazeera has said that Libyan authorities have detained a team of its journalists in western Libya, the AP news agency reports. The four correspondents are said to be British, Tunisian, Mauritanian and Norwegian.

We support the UN Coalition’s action in this case. Similar ops should have happened in Rwanda & Burundi, and Bosnia many years back to prevent genocides, but that’s the lesson here, not to let punk dictators kill do genocide within their country. We want to see immediate stop to all killing of civilians in Libya. We want to see democracy in Libya.

For example, Google’s site layout is a masterstroke in terms of clarity and simplicity. A white background is a must for any website that wants people to stay for a while and read their cotent. Clear links in blue help. 2 column layout is best for a business website, and a 3 column website works well for a media/cotent rich website like here on MyOrbit.tv Recently, WordPress (a website publishing software) has released a theme called: Coraline Continue reading →
