Invite FriendsThe Magic of Disruption - Greater Equity All Around
Fortunately for the world Amit Pradhan is a brilliant and generous soul. Be it his compassion for others (he is an active Board Member on the Norwegian Refugee Council), his vision for what responsible AI could look like and mean for us all, or his dedication to the decentralization of power and control that would result in a complete switcheroo on who makes the money on data(that would be you and I in his vision thank you very much). We cover it all and then some.
Join us on April 26th with Tomas Björkman, Founder of Ekskäret Foundation, for a conversation on how to accomplish your Inner Development Goals.

The Future of Women in Business
Don’t settle and let your inner bad bitch speak her truth. To say that Lisa Carmen Wang (Angel/Crypto Investor, entrepreneur, women’s advocate, People and Profit Podcast host, author of the Bad Bitch Business Bible, and 4X USA National Champion & Hall of Fame Gymnast - ohh yeah there’s that too) is a force of nature is an understatement. This woman literally jumps buildings in a single bound. Lisa is on a crusade to disrupt the business establishment so that women rise and keep on rising and never look back - unapologetically. Nike may say just do it. Lisa Carmen Wang says just do it - again, and again and again. Powerful, inspirational and practical.

Third Times a Charm: How Quantum Computing will help us do more good in the world
An amazing conversation with an extraordinary mind. Founder and CEO of Strangeworks, Will Hurley aka "Whurley" is a serial entrepreneur using his past experience and connections to demonstrate just how much good tech can do in the world. From his start at Apple where he first answered phones (they then discovered his brilliant mind) to starting a mobile company that built apps for Starbucks, The American Idol and The Daily to name a few - Whurley recognized that he was doing limited good. Realizing the need for a bigger infrastructure to really change the world, he got to work building it. His choices as he saw it : biotech, robotics, or quantum. He chose the latter, feeling it was the right technology at the right point in time with the right needs to address. Putting community, collaboration and quantum computing to work, his impact has been amazing. Add to this, he is a former bass player, has a passion for healing education, and more.

A rich conversation with a visionary mind sharing solidly implementable solutions.

Living Redeux - can technology help us get to sustainable communities?

The Future of the Digital Divide: It’s Brighter than you Think
Viola Llewellyn, CoFounder of Ovamba, is facing risk head on and helping banks to do the same along the way. The result: decrease of the digital and financial divide and a healthier ecosystem, as those who formerly were turned away when requesting funding are better seen as promise rather than risk. Juggling multiple cultures has given her the unique ability to “code-switch”, have better access and understand a broad range of stakeholders. One key takeaway - impact investing actually lessens the risk of a portfolio as it promotes wealth through healthy business whereas NGOs primarily prevent poverty. Far too often people mistake philanthropy as a form of impact investing. Listen to learn more about impact investing, equity, fintech and the lessening of the digital divide.
Join us for our next episode on December 14 with James Ehrlich, where we’ll talk about the future of living as we learn more about his regenerative community effort. Will tech finally be embraced as friend vs. foe? Listen to find out!
