From Cooking with FIRE to Embracing TECH w/ Burnt Ends' Dave Pynt
The global pandemic has wreaked havoc on many industries - with the Food & Beverage industry one of the hardest hit. Most countries, at some point, have had to ban dining in - and even once that restriction is lifted, they have limited the restaurant capacity to only 50-70% of the pre-pandemic levels. To survive financially, restaurants have had to pivot their business and operating models online to create new revenue streams. In this episode, we are going to look at the role tech has played in helping restaurants overcome these unprecedented challenges. If yo...

What the HELL is OPENRAN? And how will it impact 5G? w/ BlueFire's Rob Jones
There's a new tech industry buzzword floating around that I need to understand better - and that buzzword is OpenRAN. The reason I need to understand it better is because it seems like it has the capability to transform the way mobile operators purchase, deploy and support their networks. In the old days, it was easy, you rang up one of the network equipment manufacturers, like Nokia, Ericsson or Huawei, and they built your network. But with OpenRAN, operators can choose from hundreds of vendors and thousands of network configurations. That sounds complex...

The GENDER LEADERSHIP DIVIDE w/ VMWare & Lean In Singapore's Uma Thana Balasingam
In recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of initiatives that have raised global awareness about the importance of gender diversity, the challenge of the gender pay gap - as well as the issue of a lack of women in senior leadership positions. But while these initiatives draw more attention to these issues, what I want to understand is has this attention led to progress. Are we getting any closer to closing the Gender Gap? And today's guest, Uma Thana Balasingam, is ideally suited to help me delve deeper into this question.
