Re: Enron - NEVRL - AA meeting on July 27

Professor Kothari:
Thank you for the communique. Your recollection regarding a "next step" for
Enron is correct - we are currently working
to define Enron's key issues and research questions. The group will reconvene
this week. Following that meeting, I
will provide an update to you regarding our progress.
With regards,
Amy Oberg

Subject: Enron - NEVRL - AA meeting on July 27

Dear Amy:

Thank you and your colleagues for taking the time to video-conference with
us at MIT and AA professionals associated with NEVRL. I enjoyed the
exchange and was left impressed by the technical savvy and keen interest in
research on part of Enron. I look forward to hearing from you sometime
soon.

As I recall, we agreed that Enron would forward a few issues/questions that
NEVRL could potentially address. Once we have a meeting of minds on the
set of issues, we can discuss further how best to collaborate and
accomplish our goals. I believe both sides would benefit immensely. MIT
faculty can research questions relevant to industry and you might receive
some answers you are looking for!

With best regards,

S.P.
