While working in the cybersecurity industry for Cisco, Founder Henry Zhang became aware of critical gaps that large cybersecurity corporations overlooked when it came to the security posture and safety of local businesses. He and co-founder Nicole Wraback, a Georgia Tech computer science engineering grad who studied AI, decided to invent a solution that could work for real people. They enrolled in Georgia Tech's Create-X student accelerator and met Robin Bienfait, of Valor. He then went through Startup Runway, Valor's pre-seed investor introduction platform.

On this episode of the Rocket IT Podcast, Matt and Eric of Rocket IT sit down with Robin Bienfait, Founder and Accelerator of Atlanta Tech Park, and CEO of Emnovate, an executive advisory firm based inside the Park’s facilities. As an executive from AT&T, Blackberry and Samsung, Robin has both led innovation from within corporations, as well as invested herself in innovative technologies outside of these corporate hubs. Now, in an effort to share her expertise, Robin has created an ecosystem that curates innovation, engages entrepreneurs and accelerates business growth.

Climbing the Corporate Latter - Rohilesh X Robin Bienfait and Becky Blalock Part 1Robin Bienfait and Becky Blalock, both superstar powerful business leaders based out of Atlanta, Georgia, join us at the Happiness Platform and the Leadership show to discuss what it means to climb the corporate ladder for them in their technology and utility and engineering backgrounds and how to reach the c-suite.

Learn the secrets of STEM women who Innovate - Rohilesh X Robin and Becky Part 2Becky Blalock and Robin Bienfait return to discuss how you can innovate to stay relevant, as well as we delve into the mental health implications that exist in corporate life today.

Over the past 2 years Robin has been working for Samsung as Chief Enterprise Innovation Officer, where she started a business for Samsung as an Interpreneur. Robin spent 22 years at AT&T (retired) where she led over 30,000 employees at and was dedicated to building a scalable and reliable enterprise class network. Robin also spent 6 years at BlackBerry as Chief Information Officer. Robin demonstrates how one can be innovative, lead thousands of people, create businesses within large businesses and yet stay customer and people relevant. We discuss how culture can kill a strategy in a business. Robin states that sometimes culture can get you into the business and scale but will not keep you in business. Hence you want that culture where the organization evolves to lead market trends by having deep insight, allows for innovation and where you want that employee who wants to be with the company for 40 years We explore the concept of Inclusion Officers, put there so the company does the right thing for their people. And we finish our conversation with the responsibility of boards and companies alike to look beyond shareholder value (as it has been traditionally been defined).
