Today marks the end of my one-hundred-twenty-fifth week of working from home (mostly). Here are my takeaways from week one hundred twenty-five:

• Culture – I spent time immersed in a different culture this week. It was interesting to see the differences in relation to entrepreneurship. Value creation means different things in different cultures.
• Network effects – I’ve been thinking about how high-quality networks have an outsize impact on early-stage entrepreneurship. Ideas and information flowing freely to early founders can be game changing. I’m wondering how to improve the network in Atlanta.
• Research – I spent time this week reading academic research and trying to track down the authors. I’ll spend more time hustling in that effort.

Week one hundred twenty-five was busy. Looking forward to next week.
