“XSponse is a full ecosystem built on a network-based system using PoE and BLE technology,” says Blake Albertsen, VP of Sales at XSponse, in an interview with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, during ScanSource Partner First. Albertsen highlighted XSponse's integrated security and communications platform, which combines wearable technology, wall-mounted devices, and advanced detection capabilities. The ecosystem is designed for deployment in schools, hospitals, corrections, hospitality, and casinos, offering both large-scale and small-footprint solutions. One key feature is XSponse's wearable badge technology, which provides immediate safety alerts. With a triple-button press, the badge triggers LED and vibration feedback, sends alerts through the network, and can even dispatch 911 calls to on-site security officers. The devices also support full audio intercom functions and include built-in cameras with electromagnetic shutters for privacy. XSponse extends beyond personal safety with unique environmental monitoring capabilities, including a vape detector that integrates into HVAC systems to identify vaping and other anomalies such as methane, carbon monoxide, and various toxins. Albertsen emphasized that the system is designed to integrate directly into existing security infrastructures, giving organizations a robust, scalable platform to enhance safety, communication, and real-time incident response.

Welcome back to another episode of Upside at the EUVC Podcast, where Dan Bowyer, Mads Jensen of SuperSeed, Andrew J Scott of 7percent Ventures, and Lomax unpack the forces shaping European venture capital.This week, veteran journalist Mike Butcher (ex-TechCrunch Europe, The Europas, TechFugees) joins the pod. From the creator economy eating media brands, to Europe's fragmented ecosystem and the capital gap that just won't die, we dive into EU-Inc, Draghi's unfulfilled reforms, ASML's surprise bet on Mistral, Europe's defense awakening, Klarna's IPO, and quantum's hot streak.Here's what's covered:00:01 – Mike's ResetTechCrunch Europe closes; Mike reflects on redundancy, summer off, dabbling in social and video.03:00 – Media Evolution & Creator EconomyFrom '90s trade mags → TechCrunch → The Europas & TechFugees. Blogs as early social media; today's creators (MrBeast, Bari Weiss, Cleo Abram) echo that era. Bloomberg pushes reporters front and center as media becomes personality-driven.06:45 – Europe's Ecosystem & Debate CultureEurope isn't Silicon Valley's 101 highway — it's dozens of fragmented hubs. Conferences like Slush, Web Summit, VivaTech anchor the scene, but the missing ingredient is debate. US VCs spar on stage then grab a beer; Europe is still too polite.12:00 – All-In Summit DebriefMads' takeaways from LA: Musk on robotics (the “hand” bottleneck), Demis Hassabis on AGI (5–10 yrs away), Eric Schmidt on US–China AI race, Alex Karp on Europe's regulatory failures. The Valley vibe captured, but it's only one voice.17:00 – EU-Inc & Draghi ReportDraghi's 383 recommendations, just 11% implemented. €16T in pensions sit mostly in bonds; only 0.02–0.03% flows into VC (vs 1–2% in the US). Permitting bottlenecks: 44 months for energy approvals. Panel calls for a Brussels “crack unit,” employee stock option reform, and fixing skilled migration.35:00 – Deal of the Week: ASML × MistralASML leads a €2B round in Mistral at €11B valuation. Strategic and cultural fit (Netherlands ↔ Paris) mattered more than sovereignty. Mads: 14× revenue is a bargain vs US peers. Andrew: proof Europe's VCs are too small — corporates must fill the gap. Lomax: ASML knows it's a one-trick pony with 90% lithography share; diversifying into AI hedges risk.49:00 – Defense & Industrial BaseRussian drones hit Poland, NATO urgency spikes. UK pledges defense spend to 2.5% GDP by 2027, but procurement bottlenecks persist. Poland cuts red tape under fire; UK moves at peacetime pace. Andrew: real deterrence is industrial capacity. Mike: primes must be forced to buy from startups; dual-use innovators like Helsing show the way.59:00 – Klarna IPO & the Klarna MafiaKlarna IPOs at $15B (down from $46B peak). Oversubscribed; Sequoia nets ~$3.5B; Atomico 12M → 150M. A new “Klarna Mafia” of angels and operators will recycle liquidity back into Europe's ecosystem.01:03:00 – Quantum's Hot StreakPsiQuantum ($7B, Bristol roots), Quantinuum ($10B, Cambridge), IQM (Finland unicorn), Oxford Ionics' $1B exit. Europe has parity in talent but lacks growth capital. Lomax: “Quantum is hot, but a winter will come.” Andrew: Europe can win here — if the money shows up.01:05:00 – Wrap-upThe pod ends on optimism: Europe may not own AGI, but in quantum it has a fair fight.

Six years ago, we launched our podcast with a strong focus on the emerging Ethereum ecosystem, which led us to uncover groundbreaking opportunities early on—DeFi, NFTs, the Metaverse, and more. Back then, Ethereum was widely regarded as the epicenter of innovation, attracting cypherpunks eager to experiment with smart contracts and drive a digital revolution. Since then, that initial spark has faded, and with it, Ethereum's dominance in the crypto market, reflected in the price of $ETH. In this episode, we breakdown the factors behind this shift and share our insights on how the 2025-2026 bull market could unfold beyond the era of tariff scares. We also discuss Bitcoin's evolving role in the ecosystem and how it fits into the bigger picture. Topics: First up, reflecting on 6 years of the Block Runner podcast Next, what's attracting cypherpunks to experiment with smart contracts and drive a digital revolution? and Finally, share our insights on how the 2025-2026 bull market could unfold beyond the era of tariff scares Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

In this episode of FYI, ARK's Brett Winton and Charlie Roberts speak with Dmitry Shevelenko, Chief Business Officer at Perplexity, about the company's evolving role in the future of the agentic internet. They discuss how Perplexity is carving out its place in the AI ecosystem—not as just a wrapper, but as a full-stack answer engine built for research, action, and trust. Dmitry outlines how Perplexity balances product excellence, model orchestration, and subscription alignment to serve both consumers and enterprises. He also highlights the team's bold vision for Comet, their AI-native web browser, and how it fits into a future shaped by AI agents and voice interfaces.Key Points From This Episode:00:00:00 How Perplexity positions itself within the AI assistant landscape—and what makes it stand out to ARK.00:02:37 Why the analyst team prefers Perplexity for researching earnings calls, transcripts, and filings.00:03:58 Dmitry explains why only a few agentic AI systems may dominate—and why productization still matters.00:06:10 The team discusses Perplexity's potential for rapid user growth and why context portability may remain limited.00:07:51 How the agentic internet could reshape browsing—and why half of current screen time may be up for automation.00:09:33 A breakdown of Perplexity's monetization strategy, centered on consumer and enterprise subscriptions.00:12:28 Why the company avoids ad-based business models in favor of long-term trust alignment with users.00:13:17 Introducing Pro Perks: how Perplexity returns affiliate value to users instead of monetizing with ads.00:14:28 The vision of a future where your personal agent negotiates on your behalf with merchants' AI agents.00:15:43 Why link-based performance advertising is vulnerable in an agentic world—and which ad models might persist.00:18:10 Charles on building trust and resisting “sycophantic” behavior in AI agents.00:19:47 Perplexity's view that the same AI assistant can serve both personal and professional needs.00:22:12 How Comet, the new Perplexity browser, lets agents perform real-world actions—like buying books and managing LinkedIn.00:26:00 The team explores how reduced friction leads to increased curiosity and new behaviors online.00:28:15 Brett asks how browser context, data, and distribution contribute to Perplexity's strategy and the Chrome bid.00:30:08 How voice interfaces may disrupt browsing—and how Perplexity is preparing for that shift.00:32:18 Why big companies struggle with probabilistic AI outputs—and how that limits speaker adoption.00:34:06 On mobile, Perplexity aims for deeper OS integration beyond just launching a mobile browser.00:35:18 When asked about BCI, Charles emphasizes staying agile over trying to predict distant tech horizons.00:37:04 Why Perplexity focuses on augmenting human curiosity—rather than chasing AGI or superintelligence.00:38:15 Perplexity's role in debugging and breaking through AI tool limitations—rather than generating code.00:40:01 Charles responds to “just a wrapper” critiques, explaining Perplexity's orchestration layer and search infra.00:43:13 Execution velocity as a cultural differentiator—and why adaptability is key to Perplexity's growth.

Send us a textThe crypto industry has a storytelling problem. Despite its revolutionary potential, most crypto projects struggle to connect with mainstream audiences because they've created an insular world of jargon, acronyms, and narratives that actively exclude outsiders."I've been in a lot of different industries – social impact, investment, technology, healthcare – and I've never been in an industry where narrative mattered more than crypto," explains Stephany Zoo, Head of Ecosystem at Caladan and a veteran crypto marketer since 2014. Drawing from her experience across four continents, Stephany reveals how cultural contexts profoundly shape crypto adoption, from Vietnam's surprisingly high 30% adoption rate (driven by distrust in traditional financial products) to the interplay between regulatory environments in different regions.The disconnect between crypto projects and mainstream users runs deeper than many realize. While companies like Robinhood are successfully bringing their existing users into crypto, the reverse rarely happens. Crypto marketers have created barriers through excessive technical language and a focus on what makes crypto different rather than relatable. "So much of the storytelling we've seen recently positions crypto as this unique thing that's redoing or undoing what the financial world has done previously," Stephanie notes. "You can't have an entire industry that stands by itself."This marketing challenge extends to how founders approach growth. Too often, they chase vanity metrics – Twitter followers, conference appearances, impression counts – while neglecting the fundamentals of positioning, messaging, and conversion metrics that actually drive business. The result? Unsustainable hype cycles that quickly fade instead of building lasting value.For marketers navigating this space, Stephany offers practical wisdom: return to marketing basics like user segmentation and channel strategy, focus on clear messaging consistency across all platforms, and tell stories that connect crypto to everyday experiences rather than isolating it as something alien. As the industry matures and institutional adoption grows, communicating crypto's internal culture to the outside world responsibly becomes increasingly critical.Ready to build bridges instead of walls with your crypto marketing?

https://coachingyouthhoops.com/ai-basketball-coach/ https://coachingyouthhoops.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmessing/ Richard, can you start by explaining your mission to Give Voice to Ethics™ and how it connects to youth sports? What inspired the creation of the Ecosystem-4-Ethics™, and how do you envision it impacting communities, especially in the context of sports? Ethics is often discussed in business or politics—why should youth sports be part of this global conversation? From your perspective, what are the most common ethical challenges facing youth sports today? How do you see privacy concerns—like data from apps, videos, or team platforms—intersecting with youth sports? In youth sports, winning often overshadows character-building. How do we realign priorities ethically? How can coaches and organizations balance the pressure to perform with the responsibility to protect young athletes' well-being? What role should parents play in modeling and reinforcing ethical behavior in youth sports? Many coaches are volunteers without formal training. How can we equip them to handle ethical situations? Have you seen examples where a lack of ethics in the stands—parent behavior, referee abuse—trickled down to impact kids directly? With the rise of video analysis, recruiting platforms, and wearable tech, how do we ethically handle the collection and sharing of kids' data? What risks do parents and leagues often overlook when they share game highlights or athlete stats online? Do you believe there should be universal guidelines for protecting minors' data in sports? If so, what should they include? Sports is a global language. How can we create a shared ethical framework that works across different cultures and communities? Are there international examples of ethical youth sports programs that the U.S. could learn from? If you could give a “Youth Sports Ethics Checklist” to every league, what would the top three items be? What advice would you give a small-town coach who wants to build a team culture rooted in ethics? How can sports organizations integrate privacy by design into their programs for young athletes? Looking ahead, what role do you think technology and AI will play in both improving and challenging ethics in youth sports? What gives you hope that we can build a truly ethical youth sports ecosystem—and how can our listeners get involved?

Is your website traffic dropping even though you're doing everything right? Building a marketing ecosystem is more critical than ever as AI reshapes how clients find therapists online.

India's journey in digital health began just over a decade ago, yet it has quickly grown into one of the most ambitious transformations worldwide. It started in 2012 with maternal and child health programs, expanded to cover non-communicable diseases, and gained momentum with the launch of the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) in 2020. At the heart of ABDM is the ABHA ID—a unique 14-digit health identifier for every citizen. Combined with registries for facilities and professionals, and a consent-based health information exchange, India has laid the groundwork for a truly interoperable system. So far, over 800 million ABHA IDs have been created. Yet, only around 20% of facilities and professionals are onboarded, with adoption challenges in the private sector. Ritesh Aeron is a distinguished digital health expert and program management specialist with a strong track record of driving large-scale health systems transformation through digital innovation. He currently serves as a Director at the Equitable Global Healthcare Foundation (EGHF), a role he has held since April 2025. In this discussion he explains: What is the current state of healthcare digitalization in India? How did India's digital health journey start and evolve? What is the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) and how does it work? What is the ABHA ID and why is it important? How does interoperability and consent-based data exchange function? How many people and facilities are onboarded so far? What challenges remain in adoption and regulation? How is data being used for population health and surveillance? What role does AI and innovation play in care delivery? How open is the Indian market for global providers? How is AI affecting both healthcare delivery and the software workforce?

Venkat Atluri, McKinsey senior partner and coauthor of The Ecosystem Economy: How to Lead in the New Age of Sectors Without Borders, explains how value creation is shifting from stand-alone enterprises to coordinated networks of collaborators. Drawing on two decades advising leaders in technology, media, and telecom, he outlines what makes ecosystem businesses distinct from traditional conglomerates—and the governance required to make them work at scale.   Atluri emphasizes that ecosystems aren't about diversification for its own sake, but about following a customer-led thread: “Start with the customer and then follow the thread—what other problems does that customer have that you can solve together with partners?”   Key Insights from the Conversation Beyond Suppliers: Many firms mistake a supplier list or procurement process for an ecosystem. Atluri is clear: “A supplier list is not an ecosystem. An ecosystem is about mutual value creation and sharing in the upside.” Role Clarity Matters: Some firms will anchor the platform, continuously raising the bar for developers and users. Others will participate as contributors, protecting privacy, quality, and customer experience. Scale only comes when “responsibilities, incentives, and accountability” are explicit. Discipline in Operating Models: He advises executives to integrate ecosystem thinking into strategy, but then run deeper, dedicated workstreams to define roles, economics, and governance. Competition Is Ecosystem vs. Ecosystem: Scenario planning must account for new types of disruptors and ask, “What would an ecosystem leader do here?” Over time, Atluri expects the economy to consolidate into a few macro-ecosystems with multiple micro-ecosystems nested beneath them. History as a Control: Symbian and BlackBerry illustrate that large user bases are not moats. “Unless you keep raising the bar on your proposition, you lose.” Customer Experience Sets the Standard: Consumer expectations now apply in B2B as well: “If something doesn't work out of the box, that tells you the company is focused on itself, not the customer.”

have you ever wondered what the difference between a garden and an edible ecosystem is? Do you want to know how you can create one in you own yard? In this episode with author Zach Loeks from the Ecosystem Solutions Institute, you learn all that and more. We'll walk you through how to choose your site, even if all you have is a 5ft by 5ft patch of earth. From there we'll look into orienting the garden spot, improving the soil, and choosing your plants for form, function, and potential. The coolest part is that this system is modular and you can expand it from a tiny spot in an urban yard to a whole farm with the permabed system. While there are tons and tons of tips and information in Zachs book on edible ecosystems, the smallest and most basic form revolves around the modular permabed system that he pioneered in his first book. Starting with a 5”x5” patch of earth, you mound compost or topsoil like you might in a garden bed, with the low sides being on the south and north ideally to create tiny microclimates that favor different types of plants. in the center row at the height of the mound you can plant your key plant, which will usually be a fruit tree or berry bushes. This creates a center point with full access to sunlight and space around to plant your support species. I'll use the example of a pear tree guild from the book. in the center is the pear tree, ideally a bare root sapling which will cost less than a potted on and is less likely to be root bound. Along with the tree on the top of the mound you could plant grape vines on either side which will use the tree as a trellis as they grow taller. strawberries are a great perennial ground cover which will help to shade out weeds and bear delicious fruit on the south side where it gets full sun. on the shadier south side of the mound you could grow a few asparagus shoots. they're a highly nutritious perennial vegetable that will keep coming back year after year. Some echinacea planted around the top by the pear and grapes will offer some visual beauty from the flowers, attract pollinators, and is a powerful medicine too.  This is just one example of a micro edible ecosystem. If you have more space you can group multiple 5×5 squares into a row, or add multiple rows in what Zach calls a triad. play with different combinations of plants that can support one another and explore the full diversity of what grows in your climate. The options are almost limitless.

Host Sebastian Hassinger interviews Alexandre Blais, professor of physics at the Universite de Sherbrooke and scientific director of the Insitut Quantique. Alexandre discusses his academic journey, starting from his master's and PhD work in Sherbrooke, his move to Yale, and his collaborations with both theorists and experimentalists. He outlines the development of circuit QED (quantum electrodynamics) and its foundational role in the modern superconducting qubit landscape. Blais emphasizes the interplay between fundamental physics and technological progress in quantum computing, highlighting both academic contributions and partnerships with industry. He also describes the evolution and mission of Institut Quantique, stressing its role in bridging academia and the quantum industry by training talent and fostering startups in Sherbrooke, Quebec. Finally, Blais reflects on the dual promise of quantum computing—as a tool for scientific discovery and as a long-term commercial technology.Key Themes and Points1. Early Career and Path into Quantum ComputingAlexandre Blais began his quantum computing journey during his master's at Sherbrooke, inspired by a popular science article by Serge Haroche that laid out the argument for why quantum computers would never work.He pursued quantum studies at Sherbrooke despite a lack of local experts, showing early initiative and risk-taking.2. Transition to Yale and Circuit QEDBlais joined Yale for his postdoc, attracted by the strong theory–experiment collaboration.The Yale group pioneered "circuit QED," adapting ideas from cavity QED (single atoms in magnetic cavities) to superconducting circuits, enabling new ways to read out and control qubits.Circuit QED became the backbone of superconducting qubit technology, notably enabling the transmon qubit (now a dominant architecture).Collaborated with figures like prior guests of the podcast Steve Girvin and Rob Schoelkopf, and was a postdoc along with Jay Gambetta and Andreas Wallraff.3. Superconducting Qubits and Research FocusMost of Blais's work has centered on superconducting qubits, particularly on understanding and extending coherence times, reducing errors, and improving fabrication/design.Emphasizes the complex, nonlinear, and rich physics even of single-qubit systems (e.g., challenges of dispersive readout and unexpected phenomena like multiphoton resonances).Notes the continuing importance of deep, fundamental research despite growing industrial and engineering focus.4. Role of Academia vs. IndustryGrowth of corporate investment (Google, IBM, Amazon, Intel) has changed the landscape.Blais argues that universities should focus on pushing the scientific frontier and training talent, not on building commercial-scale quantum computers.Academic groups can pursue high-risk, high-reward research and deeper understanding of quantum technology's physical underpinnings.5. Institut Quantique and Quebec's Quantum EcosystemBlais leads Institut Quantique, which supports both basic and applied quantum research and has been highly successful in fostering a local quantum startup ecosystem (e.g., SBQuantum, NordQuantique, Qubic).Offers entrepreneurship courses and significant seed grants (even to students and postdocs) to encourage talent retention and company creation in Sherbrooke.Partnership between academia, startups, and public investment has attracted international players like Pasqal and IBM, establishing Sherbrooke as a quantum technology hub.6. Societal and Philosophical ReflectionsFundamental challenge: making increasingly large quantum systems remain quantum despite Bohr's assertion, via the Correspondence principle, that as a quantum system scales it will become classical.Quantum computers are not only future commercial tools—they are already invaluable scientific instruments, enabling new physics via experimental control of complex quantum systems.Blais is optimistic about quantum computing's potential for both discovery and eventual large-scale applications.Main TakeawaysBuilding quantum computers is both a technological and fundamental scientific challenge. Even with commercial interest, deep physical understanding is essential—academic research remains vital.Close collaboration between theorists and experimentalists breeds breakthrough advances. Circuit QED exemplifies this synergy.Quantum research institutes can seed thriving tech ecosystems, if they focus on both talent training and supporting spinouts, as shown by Institut Quantique in Sherbrooke.Quantum computing's greatest early impacts will likely be as scientific instruments, enabling novel experiments and discoveries, before large-scale commercial utility is achieved.Quantum hardware's development continually reveals new, subtle physics; e.g., the decades-long puzzle of dispersive readout reflects the complexity inherent in scaling up quantum technology.Notable Quotes “Quantum computers will, before being commercially useful, be fantastic tools for discoveries.” “What we're trying to do is go against that very fundamental principle—we're trying to build a bigger and bigger system that behaves ever more quantum.” “There is real power in mixing theory and experiment when tackling the challenges of quantum technology.”Listeners will enjoy a blend of scientific storytelling, personal insight, and a blueprint for building world-class quantum research hubs that advance both discovery and innovation.

CFRA's Angelo Zino raised his price target on Nvidia (NVDA) after the company's blockbuster earnings report. While he notes the disappointing miss in data center revenue, it's "all upside in China" after CEO Jensen Huang set the bar low on the previous quarter. He expects demand for Nvidia's A.I. chips to heavily accelerate in the region. As for the company's future, Angelo makes the case that Nvidia is moving far beyond its role as a chipmaker into creating entire A.I. ecosystems.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Copy and paste content doesn't build a connection. If you want your brand to resonate, you need to go deeper, more human, more emotional, more real.That's executed perfectly by The Last of Us, a post-apocalyptic story that became a global phenomenon not because of monsters, but because of its heart. In this episode, we're taking a closer look with the help of our special guest, Ashley Emery, CMO at VelocityEHS.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from emotional storytelling, breaking traditional formats, and building real resonance with your audience (even in the most unexpected places).About our guest, Ashley EmeryAshley excels in driving growth and innovation in B2B technology organizations, both at the global enterprise and high-growth start-up scale. She holds an Executive MBA and specializes in demand generation and revenue-focused marketing strategies. Ashley has a proven track record of building and leading high-performing marketing teams, having served as Head of Global Campaigns for the Database and Analytics category at AWS, VP of Marketing at Emburse, and most recently, the SVP of Demand Generation at Employ, the parent company of JazzHR, Jobvite, and Lever.What B2B Companies Can Learn From The Last of Us:Story comes before product. In B2B, it's easy to get stuck in the habit of leading with features, capabilities, or technical specs. But as The Last of Us demonstrates, what draws people in is a story they care about, not a list of innovations. Your product may be powerful, but unless your audience understands how it impacts their world or identity, it won't matter. Center the narrative on the customer's journey, pain, and outcome, your product plays a supporting role in that transformation. This shift can completely reframe how you approach content, ads, and even your brand voice. Ashley advises, “Lead with a human-centric storytelling. Don't sell features… the product is the enabler, it's not the hero.”Your audience might not be who you think. “Even if you think you understand your audience, you may not,” said Ashley, who was surprised herself, as she was so drawn to the series. Just as The Last of Us broke out of its presumed “gamer” audience, B2B brands often have unexpected buyers, champions, or influencers they're missing. Assumptions based on firmographics or industry stereotypes can be limiting. VelocityEHS found that their safety-focused customers were actually risk-tolerant thrill-seekers outside of work, which changed how they positioned messaging. This is a call to continuously validate personas, run qualitative interviews, and listen for nuance. Your best buyers may not look like your ICP on paper.The medium shapes the message. It's not enough to have a great story, you have to tailor it to the channel and format. A 60-minute podcast moment doesn't automatically become a good TikTok. Just like a video game plot doesn't translate directly into a TV script, B2B content has to be rewritten for the medium it's living in. That means writing social hooks, designing natively for mobile, and assuming low context. Ian reminds us that, “-if you take an idea that Ashley says in minute 50 of a podcast and drop it onto LinkedIn, and the person has no context at all who this person is or what they do, then the actual insight itself isn't as interesting or valuable.” Meet your audience where they are, mentally, emotionally, and contextually, or risk wasting great content on the wrong canvas.Quotes“Often in marketing, we get scared of emotion. We try to stay very neutral in our language. We don't want to be provocative, we don't want to be bold, and I think we as humans crave that. The show is a perfect example. The boldness, the emotional connection, and the conflict of the characters was really valuable. There's so much raw emotion and connection in the stories that could be told, and not being afraid to tell an uncomfortable story… is powerful.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Ashley Emery, CMO at VelocityEHS.[00:56] Why The Last of Us?[01:42] The Role of CMO at VelocityEHS[02:48] Breaking Down The Last of Us[26:47] B2B Marketing Lessons from The Last of Us[27:36] Human-Centric Storytelling in Marketing[35:16 Understanding Your Audience[38:43] Building an Ecosystem of Content[40:20] The Importance of Star Power[42:14] Embracing Emotional Tension in Marketing[46:11] Final Thoughts & TakeawaysLinksConnect with Ashley on LinkedInLearn more about VelocityEHSAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.
