Three Birthdays & the World Cup - with Dr. Sunny Zhang 🎂
​Update: Due to Ion’s closure on July 3, we are moving the cake to the Lymbar on June 30 5-8pm to join World Cup celebrations with Latino Founders Forum, Born Global Community, Women in AI USA, TrueLeap Inc., and Orian.ai Partners. Special thanks to my great friend Oleg Lysiak for coordinating. Can’t wait to have a blast!
​Houston, We’ve Landed! 🎂🇺🇸⚽🚀✨
​After an intense and inspiring time in India, I’m so excited to be back home in H-Town.
​Join me at the Ion District on Friday, July 3 as Houston heads into its final World Cup weekend and we celebrate three birthdays:
​The United States turns 250. 🇺🇸
​My own birthday - guess how old I’m turning. 😎
​The birth of Orian.ai — Community Intelligence. ✨
​Orian has been more than 25 years in the making, growing from my journey through research, teaching, venture building, and community building—and from one question I have never stopped asking:
​How can technology help human communities become better connected and create greater impact as intelligent ecosystems?
​This gathering is not a formal launch or presentation. It is a joyful moment to reconnect and celebrate new beginnings.
​There will be community.
There will be a future worth building.
And yes, there will be chocolate|vanilla cake. 🎂
​I’ve missed you all and would love to celebrate together.
​🖖 Sunny
