Query:
There have been recent reports of ransomware attacks, by alleged
Russian hackers, on election-related companies, including a
vendor of election results display software.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/27/technology/2020-election-security-threats.html
My questions:
-- Is this a trend? Is there more evidence of ransomware attacks
on election organizations?
-- What effect do ransomware attacks have? Does this play into
the larger Russian effort of creating doubt about U.S. election
results? Or is this a typical ransomware ploy to extort money?
-- Do you expect these kinds of attacks to continue?

Hi, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. The Entrepreneur
Journeys (EJ) series is our flagship series and we're looking
for interesting companies with at least $5 million in annual
revenue to feature in lengthy feature stories. We are interested
in interviewing the entrepreneur who can and is willing to
discuss, at length, the nuances of the strategy and process of
company building, spanning topics such as bootstrapping,
financing, positioning, customer acquisition, channels, team
building, etc. To pitch, please provide revenue level, industry
(Our interests: E-Commerce, Cloud Computing, SaaS, Mobile,
Social, Big Data, IoT, FinTech, Digital Media, Gaming,
Healthcare IT, Online Education, etc.) and focus of the story
angle in terms of company-building experience. We use the
revenue level as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. The Entrepreneur Journeys
series has already produced 12 books
(http://tinyurl.com/4p4phwy). You can see examples of the series
on our blog (http://tinyurl.com/d8m9mt). This blog is part of
the One Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is
to help a million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual
revenue. We also use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach
other entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters.
You get publicity, as well as a platform to share your lessons
from the trenches with a large number of aspiring and practicing
entrepreneurs. 1M/1M has syndication relationships with many
venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India),
Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post, Business Insider,
ReadWriteWeb, and several other sites. Articles we develop
through these interviews often get repackaged for the
syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was named by Forbes in the
Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs (http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in Menlo Park, at our office. We will provide the dial-in for
phone interviews, and the address for the in-person interviews.
Requirements:
When you send in your pitch, please be sure to include the
revenue level, as it is the primary criterion we use to select
stories. Unlike other entrepreneurship media, we do not look for
financing as a criterion for determining story worthiness. Also,
if your revenue threshold is below the $5M level currently, you
are welcome to email me, and I will check if your story might
fit in any of our other series. To give you a flavor, here are
some of our other ongoing series: The 1M/1M Deal Radar: Revenue
between $1M and $5M, high growth rate. We typically do email
interviews for this series. Thought Leader Interviews: We also
have Thought Leader Series opportunities in Cloud Computing,
Cyber Security, Mobile and Social, Big Data, Outsourcing, Online
Education, e-commerce, Gaming, Online Fashion, HealthcareIT,
Internet Of Things, etc. These require, however, that the
company has a minimum of $5M in revenue.

named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs) and among the top 100 influencers on
the topic of cloud computing. Indicate in your pitch the revenue
level, as we use this as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. Please also provide the story
angle, talking points, etc., so we can gauge what is the thought
leadership point of view we will be highlighting in the series.
Our audience is extremely sophisticated, so the conversation
needs to be equally interesting. Sramana Mitra was also named as
one of the top 10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015

Query:
The Trump Presidency has seen a decline in relations with China
and a trade war escalating.
One area is of particular interest - semiconductor technology.
The Millennial Source is looking for comments on recent US
sanctions against China's semiconductor manufacturer SMIC, as
well as more broad sanctions against Chinese tech companies -
such as Huawei and others - to prevent them accessing this
technology.
Sources could answer some of the following queries:
1) Why have US sanctions targeted semiconductors in particular?
What is so important about this tech?
2) What do these sanctions mean for China? Can China produce its
own semiconductors or is it reliant on foreign trade?
3) Will these sanctions have knock-on effects for consumers,
i.e., smartphones? Will sanctioning companies like Huawei to
prevent them receiving semiconductors mean less Huawei
smartphones in the West?
Please include your bio and qualifications with comments - we
look forward to hearing from you!
