INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS:
[01:06] Entrepreneurship is a really hot topic, nowadays. I believe it’s because of the way the gig economy has completely altered the way people earn a living, that people are turning to entrepreneurship en masse as they believe it to be their only ticket to financial freedom. What are your thoughts on this topic?
[03:45] What is TechForGood?
[05:19] Data Privacy is a human right.
[05:45] Businesses that look after their user’s Data Privacy have a competitive edge in the marketplace.
[11:19] You’ve worked with many GDPR clients, so you know that Data Privacy is a serious thing. With the ubiquity of Artificial Intelligence, what role do you see it having in helping businesses keep their customer’s data safe?
[12:33] AI and Machine Learning have become so commonplace that, unfortunately, people are mistakenly using the terms interchangeably. Can you share with us the proper definitions and applications of those terms?
[15:23] Let’s make sure our young people learning AI can invent things, because in 10-20 years, the Artificial Intelligence that will be, won’t be anything like the AI everyone’s predicting.
[17:00] Why do you need to leverage AI for Data Privacy and Cybersecurity?
[21:54] Just like we’re advancing with AI for good, hackers are developing AI for bad, and without any oversight.
[22:55] Tony Flath: In the future, it’s going to be a war of machines.
[23:39] According to an article published by Forbes in 2015, 9 out of 10 startups fail. This is a really big number and very painful, especially considering the way we started our conversation where startups are a critical component of our economy. Where do Entrepreneurs go wrong?
[28:00] Successful Entrepreneurs are the ones who get a co-founder.
[28:15] You can’t rely on employees to have the same passion as founders do, because they don’t have the same equity in the business.
[28:55] What is the one question that will determine if an entrepreneur will be successful?
[29:53] I understand that you help startups to not repeat the mistakes that others before them have made. Can you share with us a little bit about the work that you do?
[32:27] How do people connect with you?
[36:08] Do you have any parting words of wisdom that you’d like to share with the audience?
