"Tech Incubator Led by Deval Patrick Faces Disruption Amid Mideast War"
The tech incubator, Our Generation Speaks (OGS), chaired by former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick, is facing disruption as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict escalates. Israeli graduates of OGS have accused the organization of failing to take a decisive stance against alums who expressed support for the attacks by Hamas. Palestinian alums have requested a formal statement expressing concern for innocent lives affected by the crisis. The dispute reflects the challenges faced by various institutions amid the intensifying conflict. OGS CEO Lobna Agbaria stated that any alumni expressing support for terrorism would be expelled. Some Palestinian members have asked to withdraw from the alumni network due to the dangerous situation in Gaza. Patrick emphasized the importance of protecting the safety of all involved and supporting future connections.
