Podcasts about tech conferences

How is sustainability covered in main tech conferences? Sure cybersecurity, DevOps, or anything related to SRE, is covered at length. Not to mention AI… But what room is left for the environmental impact of our job ? And what are the main trends which are filtered out from specialized conferences in Green IT such as Green IO, GreenTech Forum or eco-compute to generic Tech conferences? To talk about it Gaël Duez sat down in this latest Green IO episode with Erica Pisani who was the MC of the Performance and Sustainability track at QCon London this year. Together they discussed: - The inspiring speakers in the track - Why Qcon didn't become AIcon - How to get C-level buy-in by highlighting the new environmental rik - The limit to efficiency: fine balancing between hardware stress and usage optimization - Why performance and sustainability are tight in technology - Why assessing Edge computing's positive and negative impact is tricky And much more! ❤️ Subscribe, follow, like, ... stay connected the way you want to never miss an episode, twice a month, on Tuesday!

In this episode, Tina Tower takes listeners behind the scenes at South by Southwest (SXSW), her favorite tech conference. Having attended eight times, Tina shares her biggest takeaways, standout sessions, and key emerging tech trends—all with her signature candor and enthusiasm. This episode dives deep into AI trends, the loneliness epidemic, balancing technology and human connection, the environmental impact of AI, cybersecurity, and so much more. If you're keen to stay on the cutting edge of tech but also crave a more connected, fulfilling life, this one's for you. Key Takeaways: SXSW Overview: SXSW combines tech, music, and film; Tina focused on the tech track. It's a hub for learning, inspiration, and connecting with like-minded change makers. AI Everywhere: AI dominated the conference, but Tina questions whether mainstream desire matches tech-world hype. Small language models are emerging as more eco-friendly than large ones like GPT-4. AI agents, avatars, and robo-taxis are evolving fast—commercial fast-learning robots may be here by 2030. Human Connection & Loneliness: Keynote by Kasli Kalam emphasized the "loneliness epidemic." Her "5-3-1 Game": Connect with 5 people weekly, maintain 3 close relationships, and have 1 hour of quality interaction daily. Even introverts need meaningful connection, though the ideal amount varies. AI, Tech & Health: The paradox of embracing convenience tools while ensuring they support—not replace—human connection and mental health. Future health may involve mindset coaches as common as personal trainers. Ethics & Future Threats: A growing divide: people embracing vs. avoiding advanced tech (think brain chips and body-embedded sensors). Issues around trust in information and the growing need for credible journalism. Cybersecurity: Meredith Whitaker from Signal warned about privacy risks as AI agents start connecting all your personal information. Tips: Enable end-to-end encryption, especially for sensitive accounts like iCloud. Wonder & Curiosity: Beyond tech, nurture your community, stay curious, and deliberately step out of your echo chamber. The Need for Balance: Leverage AI for productivity, but use the gained time for real connection and human experiences. Draw boundaries with tech—seek more “off time” for happiness and well-being.   Whether you're a tech enthusiast or just trying to make sense of the digital world we're living in, this episode offers a grounded perspective with heart. Tune in to feel inspired, informed, and reminded that the future is human—tech is just the tool.

What does the future hold for nonprofit technology from one of the giants in the industry?Ryan Ozimek, founder of Soapbox Engage and long time nonprofit IT thought leader, reflects on the trends and topics from this recent conference for the sector from Microsoft – particularly the embrace of AI and the potential of AI tools to impact the nonprofit sector.In its second year, the Microsoft Global Nonprofit Leaders Summit drew nonprofit sector and IT activists from around the world to discuss new tools, new partnerships, and new needs. Listen to Ryan Ozimek in conversation with Carolyn Woodard on his reflections on trends that were discussed and explored at this conferenceSome Key Takeaways:Big changes are happening fast – Ryan sees this era as strikingly similar to 1999 when we all got online on this new thing “the internet.”To prepare as a nonprofit: don't feel you have to dive in the deep end but be aware that in a short time we will all be swimming in this pool. Generational change is painfully evident in AI adoption.How does the nonprofit sector take full advantage of young people understanding new technologies especially AI, intuitively? AI is everywhere and will be everywhere. How can we use it best in our sector?How can our sector push AI tools to be better?Two and a half things for nonprofits to prepare to be able to find opportunities in this new world:Start with what problems we are trying to solve and fit the tech to that. Be prepared to be more agile and more nimble than ever before.AI agents can help you build the framework to describe your needs. Practice asking AI “what are the types of questions I should be asking you to help me solve my organization's problems?”It's important to deeply understand the tech savviness of your nonprofit. How ready are you for change? Opportunities are also coming at us really fast and not every opportunity will be a good fit.Last year at this summit the message was “Copilot is your copilot and it will help you with everything.”This year Ryan heard that multiple agents that specialize in certain tasks/things will be more helpful than a “generalist” AI. You will need to find the AI agent that can help do the exact thing that you need done. We will all need to learn to ask the right AI agent the right questions.What is the expected impact on nonprofit jobs? People will be able to be more productive, more able to help the organization meet the mission. Nonprofits will be augmenting their people with AI agents doing the grunt work. Think now about what you can automate. What is there that you have to have done that a person doesn't have to do? This will free your staff to better meet your community needs.Let's meet our missions better and bigger than we ever have, because the world has lots of needs right now. The nonprofit sector/social sector will have more and more challenges in the current environment – so making the sector more productive with AI will help it meet needs that are only growing. _______________________________Start a conversation :) Register to attend a webinar in real time, and find all past transcripts at https://communityit.com/webinars/ email Carolyn at cwoodard@communityit.com on LinkedIn Thanks for listening.

What if the most profound lessons from a massive global event had little to do with technology and everything to do with human connection? In this solo episode, I reflect on my time at this year's Web Summit, the world's largest tech conference, where I found more inspiration and insights in the unexpected moments of connection than on the stages and at the booths.  I'll share four powerful takeaways that will inspire you to reflect on your own journey. From embracing the mindset that “builders will keep building” to the importance of surrounding yourself with people who energize and uplift you, these lessons go beyond the professional world. They're about how we show up, connect with others, and stay rooted in what truly matters. Whether you're navigating challenges or celebrating wins, this episode will remind you of the power of resilience and human connection. In this episode, you will learn about: The importance of perseverance in challenging times how surrounding yourself with the right people can create life-changing connections the transformative power of saying "thank you" and how gratitude can uplift your environment what it means to be human in the age of AI and how technology can help us reconnect with our true selves Stay safe and #standwithukraine, Anna   Resources: Learn more about the Web Summit: https://websummit.com  Join the free yoga classes I teach every Monday and Thursday: https://annaliebel.as.me/lytmorning  Book a Mindshifting Intensive: https://annaliebel.as.me/strategycall    Support Ukraine: https://u24.gov.ua/

A couple decades ago, being a startup founder meant packing up and moving to Silicon Valley. It was the only way to easily access customers, investors and advisors. Today, you can build a business from just about anywhere without sacrificing the vital resources you need to validate your idea and get funded. As a result, many entrepreneurship communities have sprouted and developed in different cities, and that includes Nebraska! The state has become reputable in the startup space, and entrepreneurs there have made meaningful inroads and gained a ton of traction. Why has there been such an uptick in people going after entrepreneurship? What are some of the key trends emerging out of Nebraska's entrepreneurship community? How do we build businesses that don't set us up for burnout later? In this episode, I'm joined by startup veteran, strategist and community builder and editor at Silicon Prairie News, Stefanie Monge. She talks about Nebraska's startup boom and why more early-stage entrepreneurs are recognizing the value of staying there.  Topics Covered; What are early stage companies doing to get funding?  The advantage of building your startup in Nebraska  Why entrepreneurship is the ultimate wealth-building opportunity How to prevent entrepreneur burnout  The danger of a “growth at all costs” mentality    Guest Bio Stefanie Monge is the editor at Silicon Prairie News.

Preview of upcoming Ummah Tech conference - Ismail Dhorat by Radio Islam

To kick off Elixir Wizards Season 13, The Creator's Lab, we're joined by Zach Daniel, the creator of Igniter and the Ash framework. Zach joins hosts Owen Bickford and Charles Suggs to discuss the mechanics and aspirations of his latest brainchild, Igniter—a code generation and project patching framework designed to revolutionize the Elixir development experience. Igniter isn't just about generating code; it's about generating smarter code. By leveraging tools like Sourcerer and Rewrite, Igniter allows developers to modify source code and batch updates by directly interacting with Elixir's AST instead of regex patching. This approach streamlines new project setup and package installations and enhances overall workflow. They also discuss the strategic implications of Igniter for the broader Elixir community. Zach hopes Igniter will foster a more interconnected and efficient ecosystem that attracts new developers to Elixir and caters to the evolving needs of seasoned Elixir engineers. Topics discussed in this episode: Advanced package installation and code generation improve the developer experience Scripting and staging techniques streamline project updates Innovative methods for smoother installation processes in Elixir packages High-level tools apply direct patches to source code Progressive feature additions simplify the mix phx.new experience Chaining installers and composing tasks for more efficient project setup Continuous improvement in developer experiences to boost Elixir adoption Encourage listeners to collaborate by sharing code generation patterns Introduction of a new mix task aimed at removing the "unless" keyword in preparation for Elixir 1.18 You can learn more in the upcoming book "Building Web Applications with Ash Framework" by Zach and Rebecca Links mentioned: https://smartlogic.io/ https://alembic.com.au/blog/igniter-rethinking-code-generation-with-project-patching https://hexdocs.pm/igniter/readme.html https://github.com/ash-project/igniter https://www.zachdaniel.dev/p/serialization-is-the-secret https://www.zachdaniel.dev/p/welcome-to-my-substack https://ash-hq.org/ https://hexdocs.pm/sourceror/readme.html https://smartlogic.io/podcast/elixir-wizards/s10-e09-hugo-lucas-future-of-elixir-community/ https://github.com/hrzndhrn/rewrite https://github.com/zachdaniel https://github.com/liveshowy/webauthn_components https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Regex.html https://github.com/msaraiva/vscode-surface https://github.com/swoosh/swoosh https://github.com/erlef/oidcc https://alembic.com.au/ https://www.zachdaniel.dev/ Special Guest: Zach Daniel.

François Bitouzet, the guest of honor, then dives straight into the heart of the Viva Tech 2024 event, providing detailed insights into its scope, significance, and impact.An Overview of Viva TechFrançois explains that Viva Tech is a four-day event held annually in Paris, focusing on bringing together stakeholders in the innovation sphere. This year's event saw the participation of 155,000 attendees from 120 countries, showcasing thousands of startups, tech leaders from companies like Google and Meta, corporate giants such as Audi and LVMH, as well as public sector representatives.The Unique Format and InitiativesOne of the most distinctive features of Viva Tech 2024 was its two-fold format. For the first three days, the event catered to the B2B audience, allowing startups and investors to network and collaborate. On the final day, it opened its doors to the general public. This approach aimed to make technology accessible to everyone, regardless of their professional background.François highlighted various initiatives like the “100+100” program, where 100 successful business women in tech spent a day mentoring young girls. This not only promoted diversity and inclusion but also inspired the next generation to pursue careers in technology.Focus on AI and Other InnovationsWhile Artificial Intelligence (AI) was a major talking point, François emphasized that the event delved deeper into how AI is shaping different business sectors rather than just focusing on the technology itself. By bringing in sector-specific insights, the event sought to provide a realistic perspective on the current impact and future potential of AI.Memorable Moments and CreativityFrançois shared several memorable moments from the event, including a live Q&A session with Elon Musk, who joined virtually to answer unfiltered questions from the audience. This showcased the raw and authentic engagement the event aims to foster.Another highlight was the collaboration with the European retailer FNAC, which set up a kiosk where speakers could sign books for the attendees. This initiative bridged the gap between traditional formats and modern technology, exemplifying how the old and the new can coexist harmoniously.Looking AheadAs the conversation winded down, Marco and François discussed the future of Viva Tech, hinting at more surprises and creative content for next year. François emphasized the importance of injecting poetry and romance—metaphorically speaking—into the world of tech to retain its human touch and inspirational value.Call to ActionFinally, Marco encouraged listeners to make plans to attend Viva Tech 2025, expressing his excitement about potentially meeting his audience in person. François echoed this sentiment, inviting everyone to experience the blend of innovation, business, and meaningful impact that Viva Tech promises.ConclusionThe episode concluded with both Marco and François expressing their shared optimism for the future of technology and its potential to not only transform industries but also enhance our quality of life. They agreed that events like Viva Tech are crucial in driving this change by making technology accessible, inclusive, and genuinely impactful.____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-cybersecurity-society-humanity-conference-and-event-coverage____________________________ResourcesLearn more about VIVA TECH 2024: https://vivatechnology.com/____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastAre you interested in sponsoring our event coverage with an ad placement in the podcast?Learn More
