The very first episode of Popplet Podcast!
Long-time listeners will have heard me joke before that this podcast should really be called “this is who are you up against.” I’ve been waiting for the right episode to deploy the joke as a title, and this week we have it. The joke is meant to convey how incredibly impressive these people are who we get to hear from every week. My guest this week is Josh Wolfe, a founding and managing partner at Lux Capital in New York City. Lux is a venture capital firm, but a highly unique one. They’ve spent more time in hard sciences and interesting nooks and crannies of the market than the typical VC firm. Some of investing is zero sum: my outperformance is someone else’s underperformance. Sometimes, though, investing is positive sum. The combination of capital, ideas, people, drive, and raw energy leads to amazing new things. I think the best investing and best investors of the future will be more collaborative than competitive. After finishing with Josh, I couldn’t stop thinking “god, do I want to be involved with whatever he’s doing, if only just to learn.” This conversation made me rethink my joke “this is who are you up against.” Now I won’t think of it as a zero-sum joke, but instead as a reminder: this is the kind of person who is out there. You better find your niche, and still be the absolute best you can within that niche. Please enjoy this killer conversation with Josh Wolfe. We cover just about everything.

In this episode I had an insightful discussion with Kane Pittard. Kane is a Humanities and computer science teacher from Butler College in Butler, WA. He is responsible for the creation and ongoing development of the Butler College IT teaching program. Kane's passion is using digital learning across all learning areas. Previous to becoming a teacher in 2013, he worked as a systems administrator and owned computer consulting business. I would to thank Kane for taking time away from his family, work, and fighting the time difference to talk with me on the podcast.

Albert Lee has had an amazing arc to his career. From his beginnings as a wine-steward at Chez Panisse, to working at Frank Gehry’s architecture studio, and on to the role of Associate Partner at IDEO and now Design Partner at NEA, the nation’s largest VC firm, Albert always strives to work with the best of the best. Given the breadth of his experience at these top institutions, it’s probably not a surprise that even though his expertise is in design, he values the balanced approach between design, engineering, and product teams that are the hallmark of a product-driven company. In this episode, Albert helps us explore subjects like: why the VC world has become more cognizant of the impact of design, how organizational design influences product design, and how to kickstart a design transformation. We hope you’ll get as much as we did from the insights Albert shared, and thanks for listening. Albert Lee's Bio Albert is currently the Design Partner at NEA (New Enterprise Associates), the world's largest venture capital firm, with a portfolio of over 450 companies. In this role he works closely with portfolio companies, furthers the understanding of design within the tech eco-system, and seeks out design-centric investments. In addition, he coaches CEO's, founders and entrepreneurs as an executive coach with Reboot.io, founded by Jerry Colonna, on all the questions and challenges that come along with building a high-growth company. He is also a Special Partner at Juxtapose, where he supports a multidisciplinary team in their user research, design, and product processes to launch and invest in high-growth consumer concepts. Albert has a deep background in both design and business. Albert was previously the Managing Director of IDEO’s New York office, where he brought more than a decade of experience in digital product, communication, and venture design to bear. He specialized in developing new offerings and incubating ventures for clients based on consumer insights in a wide range of industries, including retail/fashion, financial services, and consumer technology. Prior to IDEO, Albert was a Managing Director at the design firm 2x4, and founded their Asia office in Beijing. Earlier in his career he was a design architect at Frank Gehry’s office. Albert also co-founded the product, Popplet, which provides a visual productivity and collaboration platform for K-12, which has had over 9 million downloads. He was also recently named to Fast Company's Most Creative People in Business in 2014. Albert holds a BA in architecture from U.C. Berkeley, a MFA in graphic design from Yale, and an MBA from Columbia Business School. His work has been recognized and exhibited by SFMoMA and MOMA. In 2006, he was chosen as a Young Gun by the Art Director’s Club. He has served on the board of directors of AIGA/NY

Davy Buntinx, @dirtyjos op Twitter, of via zijn website. Onderwerpen eLinea is een nieuw Nederlands concept. Gebruikers kunnen hun eigen (digitale) krant samenstellen uit artikelen van diverse kranten en magazines. Enkele uitgevers hebben al toegezegd hieraan mee te werken. Gaat dit doorbreken? Beelden van de PlayStation Phone zijn gelekt. Android Gingerbread zou als OS gebruikt worden, maar wat met de bestaande PSP games dan? Lijkt er op dat dit gewoon een smartphone met game controls gaat zijn. Hyves is overgenomen door de Telegraaf groep. Het grootste sociale netwerk in Nederland biedt natuurlijk een hoop perspectieven voor TMG. En niet te vergeten in 1 klap in de mobiele telefonie en 9 miljoen potentiele klanten erbij. Tips Maarten heeft twee tips: Youtube5, een Safari extensie waarmee alle YouTube flash content naar HTML5 omgezet wordt. En de leuke web app "Chalk" van 37signals. Een virtueel krijtbord op de iPad. Davy heeft als tip VYou. Een site waarop je vragen aan mensen kan stellen die dan beantwoord worden met een video. Hij staat er ook zelf op - vraag dus maar gerust! Stefaan heeft een tip voor de Aperture gebruikers: Aperture Expert. Een site met een heel uitgebreide collectie aan informatie. Marco gebruikt sinds kort Popplet om mindmaps te maken. Maar het kan voor veel meer gebruikt worden. De iPad app is werkelijk uitmuntend. Voor de gamers is Chu Chu Rocket geen onbekende. Deze game was een van de leukste puzzelgames op de Dreamcast. Het is er nu voor de iPhone en iPad (iTunes links)! Feedback Het Tech45-team apprecieert alle feedback die ingestuurd wordt.
