In this episode of Wavelengths, hosted by Amphenol Broadband Solutions, Daniel Litwin discusses the evolution of smart cities and the crucial role of fiber broadband with Tyler Cooper, Editor-in-Chief at Broadband Now. As urban and rural areas adapt to new technological advancements, the need for robust connectivity, strategic investments, and inclusive digital policies has never been more important.Smart Cities Depend on Fiber Broadband for GrowthThe transition to smart cities is not an overnight process but a gradual transformation driven by infrastructure improvements. Many smart city initiatives, such as AI-powered traffic management, smart water systems, and IoT-driven public safety, operate behind the scenes, improving urban efficiency without direct consumer interaction. At the core of these advancements is fiber broadband, which provides the high-speed, low-latency connectivity needed for real-time decision-making. While consumers may not immediately notice these changes, the foundational improvements to citywide digital infrastructure are shaping the future of urban living.Bridging the Broadband Divide: Urban vs. Rural ChallengesThe disparity between urban and rural broadband access remains a pressing issue. Cities focus on upgrading existing infrastructure to support next-generation innovations, while many rural communities still struggle with basic internet access. Beyond infrastructure, there is also a digital literacy gap, where many residents in underserved areas lack the knowledge to fully utilize broadband services. Expanding fiber networks in rural areas is essential for telehealth, remote education, and economic opportunities. Without reliable broadband, rural communities risk being further marginalized in an increasingly digital world.The Role of BEAD Grants and Municipal Broadband SolutionsThe Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program presents a historic funding opportunity to address broadband gaps nationwide. State broadband offices are now responsible for ensuring that these funds are effectively distributed to underserved areas. Additionally, municipal broadband networks, where communities build and manage their own internet infrastructure, are emerging as a powerful solution. Cities like Chattanooga, Tennessee, have demonstrated the success of publicly owned fiber networks, offering high-speed, low-cost internet access to residents.

In this episode of Wavelengths, hosted by Amphenol Broadband Solutions, Daniel Litwin discusses the evolution of smart cities and the crucial role of fiber broadband with Tyler Cooper, Editor-in-Chief at Broadband Now. As urban and rural areas adapt to new technological advancements, the need for robust connectivity, strategic investments, and inclusive digital policies has never been more important.Smart Cities Depend on Fiber Broadband for GrowthThe transition to smart cities is not an overnight process but a gradual transformation driven by infrastructure improvements. Many smart city initiatives, such as AI-powered traffic management, smart water systems, and IoT-driven public safety, operate behind the scenes, improving urban efficiency without direct consumer interaction. At the core of these advancements is fiber broadband, which provides the high-speed, low-latency connectivity needed for real-time decision-making. While consumers may not immediately notice these changes, the foundational improvements to citywide digital infrastructure are shaping the future of urban living.Bridging the Broadband Divide: Urban vs. Rural ChallengesThe disparity between urban and rural broadband access remains a pressing issue. Cities focus on upgrading existing infrastructure to support next-generation innovations, while many rural communities still struggle with basic internet access. Beyond infrastructure, there is also a digital literacy gap, where many residents in underserved areas lack the knowledge to fully utilize broadband services. Expanding fiber networks in rural areas is essential for telehealth, remote education, and economic opportunities.

This episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more Watch the full video on YouTube - click hereDr. Robert McMahan, President of Kettering University, started out as a kid with binoculars, staring up at the stars, fascinated by the unknown. Now, he's shaping the next generation of leaders who will drive innovation in the auto industry before they even step foot into the workforce. For Dr. McMahan, leadership isn't about power—it's about unlocking the potential of those around you. He believes a true leader creates an environment where people thrive, where great ideas don't just exist but move forward.Too often, companies think they've built a culture of leadership because they've put values on a poster in a conference room, but when you ask employees what those values are, they can't tell you. Dr. McMahan is determined to change that. At Kettering, leadership is modeled, not just taught. Leaders must make tough decisions, but transparency matters—helping people understand why decisions happen so they feel connected to the bigger picture.Kettering isn't your typical university. It operates on a co-op model, where students spend half their time in class and the other half working in the industry. This hands-on approach means graduates don't just have theoretical knowledge—they have actual experience solving problems inside organizations.This model benefits students and keeps the university ahead of industry trends. Students rotate between school and work, bringing back insights about what's happening. That constant feedback loop helps Kettering adapt its curriculum to match the industry's ever-changing needs, making it one of the most future-focused universities in the country. But who is McMahan outside of work? He is a Joni Mitchell fan, an aerobatic pilot (not a great one, he admits), and a lifelong astrophysics nerd—he even had a poster of an astrophysicist on his wall in college. More importantly, he's the kind of university president who walks the halls, buys students coffee, and keeps the conversation going. Because leadership isn't just about decisions—it's about connection. Themes discussed in this episode:The role of education in shaping future automotive leadersWhy the auto industry must shift from command-and-control to authentic leadershipThe key to building an organization with values that drive real cultural changeHow Kettering's co-op model gives students real-world experience before graduationHow future automotive careers will evolve and why students must adapt nowThe disconnect between academic learning and corporate expectations—and how to fix itThe power of real-time industry feedback in keeping STEM education future-readyFeatured guest: Robert McMahanWhat he does: Dr. Robert K. McMahan is the seventh President of Kettering University, where he has led a decade of transformation, strengthening its reputation as a leader in STEM and business education. With a background spanning academia, government, and venture capital, he has been instrumental in shaping innovation policy, technology investment, and engineering education. His career includes roles as a physics professor, science advisor to North Carolina's governor, and senior strategist at In-Q-Tel. A recognized thought leader, he has contributed to groundbreaking astrophysics research and holds multiple patents, making a lasting impact on...

In this intimate conversation with Raj, serial entrepreneur Miki Agrawal shares profound insights from her experiences in a darkness retreat and her journey of personal transformation. Miki is an author of "Disrupt-Her," and a trailblazing innovator known for founding TUSHY, THINX, and Wild. Named "Fast Company's Most Creative People in Business" and "Young Global Leader" by the World Economic Forum, Miki shares her evolution from a hard-charging entrepreneur to an advocate of "soft power" leadership. Her latest venture, Hiro Technologies, exemplifies this approach by partnering with nature to solve the global plastic crisis through breakthrough fungi technology. Beyond her business accomplishments, she's a devoted mother, musician, and thought leader in the space of authentic leadership and emotional intelligence.Key Topics and Takeaways:How five nights in complete darkness revealed the mechanics of our emotional patterns and thought loopsWhy "soft power" might be the leadership paradigm our world desperately needs right nowThe remarkable experience of watching yourself cry and finding joy in feeling everythingThe difference between leadership and mastery (and why understanding this changes everything)How prayer and gratitude can transform our relationship with uncertaintyWhy moving at the "perfect pace" means something different than what most people thinkThe profound shift from being a leader on a pedestal to being a guide on the pathHow vulnerability and power aren't opposites - they're partners in authentic leadershipThe way our souls might have chosen this human experience specifically to feel it allWhy feeling insecure might be one of the most secure things we can doThis conversation reminds us that true aliveness isn't found in avoiding the dark or chasing only the light - it's found in embracing every shade of the human experience. As Miki beautifully puts it, "I want to skid to death's door sideways, not in a well-preserved body, thoroughly used up, loudly proclaiming, wow, what a life!" The invitation is clear: what if instead of managing our emotions, we let them be our teachers? What if instead of fearing our vulnerability, we let it be our strength? This episode challenges us to embrace the full spectrum of being human, knowing that in this embrace, we find our most authentic power.Connect with Miki:Instagram: @mikiagrawalWebsite: https://mikiagrawal.com/Support Hiro Technology's Crowdfund Campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hirotechnologies/hiro-experience-plastic-eating-fungi-at-homeConnect with Raj:Instagram: @raj_janaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Send us a textWelcome to another episode of the Acid Capitalist, coming to you from the sun-drenched shores of St. Barts in the French Caribbean. This week, we're diving headfirst into market mayhem, absurd tales, and the kind of insights you can only find here.Palm trees. Santa Claus. Sleigh bells. An unlikely combination, yet somehow it works. St. Barts this time of year is pure energy: the priciest destination on the planet, unpredictable weather, and panicked yacht-dwellers caught in sudden downpours. It's all a fitting metaphor for the markets, seemingly perfect, yet always poised for chaos.Tesla's doubled since the election. Bitcoin keeps grabbing headlines, and stocks were closing the year with a stunning 27% gain. It's a world where expectations are sky-high, but danger lurks. I dive into the question: are we at the peak, or is there more room to run? And could Bitcoin really hit a million bucks? If you've been here since 2013, you know I've been calling this move for years.An LA Tale: Karate Kicks and MarketsSometimes, the markets behave like an LA socialite: confident, demanding, and completely unpredictable. I share a personal story from a glamorous night in West Hollywood. Picture this: a spoiled child, an audacious woman in a mini skirt, and a thigh-high karate kick that stopped just short of my chest. The parallels to the markets are uncanny: strutting in confidence one moment, delivering a shocking blow the next.The Seduction of NowThe biggest trap in investing? Being consumed by the present. I explore the seductive mistress that is “now” and why it blinds us to the future. Looking back at my own missteps during 2008, I reflect on the importance of stepping back and imagining where markets might be 18 months down the line. Because the present? It's rarely the full story.A Tipping PointChina is wrestling with deflation and the consequences of years of aggressive policies. Their stock index is stuck at levels from two decades ago, and the yuan teeters on the brink of devaluation. Could this be the tipping point for a global economic reset? I explore what a weaker yuan might mean for global consumption, tariffs, and U.S. consumers. Spoiler: it's not a rosy picture.⬇️ Subscribe on Patreon or Substack for full episodes ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/HughHendryhttps://hughhendry.substack.comhttps://www.instagram.com/hughhendryofficialhttps://blancbleustbarts.comhttps://www.instagram.com/blancbleuofficial⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a five star review and comment on Apple Podcasts!
