Currently a senior writer at Fortune magazine covering high tech and finance, Lashinsky's specialty is getting the inside dope on the technology scene that most interests the money crowd. He's an insider to Silicon Valley with solid credentials, an independent, knowledgeable and well-connected voice on what's really going on in high-tech. He brings an edgy, clear-headed "New York" perspective on the creative, lively and sometimes make-believe landscape of the Valley. Lashinsky previously has worked in Washington D.C., Chicago and Tokyo, where he was a Henry Luce Scholar, reporting for the Nikkei Weekly, the English-language version of Japan's main economic daily, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun. He began reporting on Silicon Valley in 1997. Panelist: Eli Harari, Founder and CEO, SanDisk Corporation
