Sam: 
It is nice to meet you by email. 
 
As Eric mentioned, I have been working with American, Turkish and
Israeli colleagues to launch a private project connecting rising leaders
in each country in order to address the business and policy challenges
(and opportunities) facing the trilateral relationship.  It would be
great to meet to hear about your work with Turkey as well as share
details about this effort with you. 
 
My Turkish colleague in this initiative, Gokhan Gundogdu - a businessman
from Adana - is in the New York area for the next couple weeks, and
specifically will be in Manhattan this coming Monday, if there is any
chance you might have time to meet then?  If not, it would be great to
speak with you in person or by phone whenever might work.
 
Best, 
David

Sam-

I'd like to introduce you to David Halperin at CAP (contact info below
and cc:ed here).  Hunter and David were talking recently about Turkey
and Hunter mentioned the work you are doing in NY State with Turkey and
David thought that you would both have some mutual interests.  David is
working on a Israel/Turkey/US related project that you would find
interesting. Perhaps it might make sense for the two of you to talk
and/or get together.  I am sure you know a number of people in common.

Let us know if the two of you have trouble connecting.

Best,

Eric
