Simon grew frustrated with trying to meet people through traditional dating websites. After spending   time and effort creating a profile, searching for dates, emailing back & forth, arranging to meet, it was disappointing to realize minutes into the date that there was no chemistry & the date was a time waster.  If only there was a way to find out if there was “chemistry” before committing to the live date, thus the creation of SpeedDate. SpeedDate is the first dating site that provides users with an opportunity to increase their chances of dating success by hosting 5-minute speed dates.  Instant interaction with SpeedDate’s patent real-time technology eliminates any chance of an awkward first in-person encounter. SpeedDate has been the catalyst of many marriages & engagements. Prior to SpeedDate, Simon worked at Elfamed, Inc., a biotech startup, as VP of Commercial Operations. He developed company strategy and operational plan, while securing the first research collaborations with big pharma. Additionally, he also assisted in raising VC funding for Pharmaron (China based), a chemistry outsourcing company.   He has a Stanford MBA , a BS & MS in Chemical Engineering, & a BS in Economics from MIT. 00:30:00The Power ConnectionnoSimon Tisminezky,Speed Dating,Dating,Online Dating,Social MediaGuest: Simon Tisminezky, CEO and Co-Founder of SpeedDate.com We'll Discuss:  *Discover how to click, connect live & start your date  *Utilize the latest technolhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/the-power-connection/2011/04/26/raising-your-money-iq-for-busy-professionalsBusinesshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/the-power-connection/2011/04/26/raising-your-money-iq-for-busy-professionals/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/the-power-connection/2011/04/26/raising-your-money-iq-for-busy-professionalsTue, 26 Apr 2011 15:30:00 GMTRaising Your Money IQ for Busy Professionals Guest: Chris Hendrickson- Finanancial Expert, Author, Trainer and Coach with Anthony Robbins, Peak Performance Expert in Human Needs Psychology We'll Discuss:  *Discover why more money won’t make you rich  *Disregarding  your budget is actually a recommendation  *Learn the one thing in your way  *Break thru those barriers preventing money IQ  *Achieve holistic financial success About: For more than two decades, Chris Hendrickson has been inspiring people to get out and stay out of debt.

Tom’s in depth understanding of computers combined with his world-class speaking capabilities soon earned Tom the reputation as being one of the best technical speakers in the world, and his students fondly began calling him Tera-Tom because of his knowledge of Teradata Data Warehousing. Tera-Tom has written over 30 books on Teradata and has taught over 1,000 classes throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Africa, India, Malaysia and China. Tom directed Coffing Data Warehousing towards its most challenging transformation by creating the Nexus Query Chameleon, a business user’s desktop tool designed for all aspects of Business Intelligence. The Nexus is the first desktop BI tool designed to access all computer vendor’s databases including Teradata, Oracle, IBM, Netezza, Greenplum, and Microsoft. This changed the computer industry because customers could now utilize multiple vendors in their previously proprietary environments and bring the data together via the Nexus. Microsoft was so impressed with the concept that they currently OEM the Nexus for their customers. The Nexus has hundreds of major companies using the product including Dell, Bank of America, Nationwide Insurance, AT&T, Pepsico, Vodafone, Telcel, Microsoft, Netezza, Warner Bros and many more.
