Because of wonderful trading by KDK Options (link here), Keane VCC was able to make a donation to the O3R Orlando Rodriguez Foundation. They use their funds to promote youth education and sport opportunities. Their website can be found here.
Donations this year have gone to O3R, Shriners Childrens Hospital Chicago, and Northeastern Illinois University. This donation has already made 2019 the most successful year philanthropically for KeaneVCC!

Innovation Weekly Update: Wow Factor, Discipline, and Grind
by Michael Keane
This week was marked by the Wow Factor, Discipline, and Grind. We had Nueralink make its announcement, Cryptocurrency all over the place, and company earnings reports that showed how they are continuing their march forward.
The Wow Factor
Earlier this week, Rachel Metz from CNN wrote (story link here) about Elon Musk's new venture, Neuralink. It is a venture looking to connect your brain with the internet through a device implanted in your brain. This is the Wow factor being introduced. Now the testing continues.
The Discipline
All things currency really were front and center this past week. Most notably, cryptocurrency and Facebook's Libra (not a designated cryptocurrency) took on a full onslaught from the US Government through hearings and press releases. One such story (link here) from The Wall Street Journal editors explain as much.
Also, in California, it was announced that the state will be deploying electric school buses throughout the state. The story link (here) is from Good News Network.
The Grind
Many companies reported earnings last week (Microsoft, Netflix, Banks, etc.) and many more report in the next few weeks (AMD, Facebook, Intel, etc.). It is clear that most companies on the innovative side of things are in a grind out their business mode. One such story from Marketwatch (link here) about its business shows some growth, but lots of grind.
That's it for this week. Can't wait for next week!
