Elon Musk is man, but he's also a character that he crafted and which the media blew up to unimaginable scale.

This is episode 2 of Elon Musk Unmasked, a special four-part series from Tech Won't Save Us.Tech Won't Save Us offers a critical perspective on tech, its worldview, and wider society with the goal of inspiring people to demand better tech and a better world.

Ok, so we need a mulligan on this one. Although we believe the actual interview with Scott Lowe and James Green will perhaps surface eventually, we seem to have misplaced it. However, we do still have our discussion after that interview, which is an enlightening enough taste of the actual interview that it's still worth sharing. It's a 10 minute listen, we hope you enjoy it. And if you happen to find our missing podcast recording anywhere, be a dear and send it back home to us, please. We won't be mad, we just want it back.

In der Mittagsfolge sprechen wir heute mit Cornelius Frey, CEO und Co-Founder von Opinary, über die Übernahme durch das Softwareunternehmen Affinity.Opinary hat eine Technologie entwickelt, die Debatten visualisiert und damit über 170 Millionen monatlichen Usern ermöglicht, ihre Ansichten in intuitiven, einbettbaren Tools im Internet zu teilen. Das Startup arbeitet für führende Verlage und Marken, um ihr Publikum in großem Umfang einzubinden und zu verstehen. Dabei verspricht das Unternehmen eine Interaktionsrate von mindestens 2 % und bei Videoformaten eine Durchsichtsrate von mindestens 70 %. Darüber hinaus garantiert Opinary, dass die Nutzerinnen und Nutzer eine 15 % bessere Leistung auf ihrer Webseite in Bezug auf Verweildauer, Seitenbesuche und Abbruchraten haben als andere Vermarkter nativer Werbeformen. Das Startup wurde im Jahr 2014 von Cornelius Frey, Max Meran und Pia Frey in Berlin gegründet. Mittlerweile arbeiten mehr als 30 Personen mit über 15 Nationalitäten als Journalistinnen und Journalisten, Sales-Experts, Developer, Data Scientists sowie Marketeers für das Unternehmen. Unternehmen wie Pfizer, SAP oder Audi sowie Verlage wie Times, Funke oder der Tagesspiegel vertrauen bereits auf die intuitive Lösung.Nun hat Opinary bekanntgegeben, dass die Software-Firma Affinity das Startup übernehmen wird. Die Transaktionssumme beläuft sich auf einen siebenstelligen Betrag, der zu einer Hälfte in Geld ausgezahlt und zur anderen Hälfte durch einen Share-Deal geregelt wird. Zuletzt sammelte das Unternehmen im Jahr 2018 drei Millionen Euro ein, woran sich u.a. Project A und der Samwer-Fonds Global Founders Capital beteiligt haben. Insgesamt kommt das Startup damit auf 4,5 Millionen Euro an Wagniskapital. Affinity hat seinen Hauptsitz in Chicago, beschäftigt rund 400 Mitarbeitende und bietet Softwareprodukte für Verlage und Marketingfirmen an. Durch den Kauf möchte das Unternehmen seine Präsenz in Europa weiter ausbauen. Opinary wiederum soll der Deal ermöglichen, weiter in die USA und nach Asien zu expandieren. In Zukunft soll die Berliner Firma nun auch Produkte von Affinity anbieten. Die Marke Opinary soll bestehen bleiben und das bisherige Management bleibt ein integraler Bestandteil der Unternehmensführung.

Elements that make up a strong startup ecosystem are founders and talent to execute the vision, investors with capital, and finally journalists that are documenting what the founders and investors are doing. Without that coverage, it's difficult to attract more founders and more investors which are needed to create a vibrant ecosystem that will hopefully have a larger impact on society.Our guest today is Sean Silcoff a business reporter at the Globe and Mail covering the Canadian startup scene. Sean's book, Losing the Signal: The Untold Story Behind the Extraordinary Rise and Spectacular Fall of BlackBerry, which he wrote with his co-author Jackie McNish in 2013 was turned into a feature film starring Glenn Howerton and Jay Baruchel. I've seen it, and it's such a great take on the rise and fall of RIM.We also have a news breakdown with John Ruffolo.About Sean Silcoff:Sean Silcoff writes about technology and innovation for the Globe and Mail.

In the spring, Tech Policy Press editor Justin Hendrix teaches a course called Tech, Media and Democracy that is a partnership of faculty at NYU, Cornell Tech, CUNY's Queens College, The New School and Columbia Journalism School. The course hosts a range of expert speakers on issues at the intersection of those topics, and graduate students in journalism, information science, computer science, media studies and design collaborate to produce prototypes and investigations of key issues. A recent guest speaker was Peter Pomerantzev, an author and researcher who is concerned with propaganda, polarization and how we come to understand the world around us. Emily Bell, director of the Tow Center at Columbia and one of the faculty on the course, led the discussion, which ranges from topics including the information component of the war in Ukraine to the tension between democracy and authoritarianism to the role of journalism and technology in shaping public discourse.

Kristie Neo, the Editor for Venture Capital coverage at DealStreetAsia, joins the Indo Tekno podcast to reflect on the highs-and-lows of an already storied career covering the tech sector in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. She describes as one of her proudest moments her widely profiled investigative exposé in which Kristie challenged a number of questionable assertions made by self-proclaimed unicorn, Filipino property developer Revolution Precrafted. Kristie laments the often contentious relationship between the media and the tech world. She for instance reflects on the turbulence generated from her recent coverage of the potential "down-round" of a Singapore-based software company, which led to a series of testy exchanges over social media. Kristie is excited with the emergence of the carbon credit market in Indo. Although she is worried that Indonesia's 2024 elections could jeopardize the country's strong support of the tech sector, she adds "I think the Indonesian ecosystem can only grow much bigger and better."

There's no one more perfectly situated between the tech media and the tech elites who loathe them.Jason Calacanis built his reputation in Silicon Valley as a feisty tech reporter, waiting in line to ask Steve Jobs questions at the Code Conference. An extremely early investment in Uber suddenly made him one of the most famous angel investors in the world (thanks also to Calacanis's self-promotional megaphone). Today, Calacanis co-hosts All-In, the second-most popular tech podcast and one of the most popular podcasts in the world. The show is a must-listen in Silicon Valley and the envy of many wannabe thought leaders.We invited Calacanis on our much, much smaller tech podcast Dead Cat to interrogate what has made All-In so successful and where Silicon Valley's roiling war with the media is headed. Calacanis, who is reportedly part of Elon Musk's war room at Twitter, warned us that he absolutely would not talk about Musk's Twitter. (We tried.)This was a fun episode that we recorded right before Thanksgiving with co-host Tom Dotan and regular special guest Katie Benner.

The term Renaissance man doesn't do Baratunde Thurston justice. He's an Emmy-nominated host who's worked at The Onion and The Daily Show, advised the Obama White House, and wrote the New York Times bestseller How To Be Black. “Everything we know is becoming something we don't know—constantly.” -Baratunde Thurston Currently, he's the creator and host of one of Apple's favorite podcasts of 2020, “How to Citizen with Baratunde,” he hosts the new PBS show, America Outdoors, and he's a founding partner of the new media startup Puck where he just wrote the incredibly thoughtful piece “Will Smith's Tragic Lesson.” Thurston understands what's happening now and where we're heading in a very, very rare way. Even rarer, you're going to come away from this conversation without a sense of doom, but with an earned optimism that's worth strengthening by, in his words, “citizening.”

Topics Discussed and Key Points:●      How Gang Lu became the founder of the premier tech media in the country●      The transition from a competitive to a collaborative startup environment in China●      The connection between changing family dynamics and the rise of innovation and entrepreneurship in China●      The business of media in China●      All about BEYOND Tech Expo 2021 in Macau●      The future of the 996 working hour system●      Gang Lu on the U.S.-China trade war●      The current state of blockchain in China Episode Summary:Today on The Negotiation, we speak with tech influencer Gang Lu, Founder and CEO of TechNode.com. Formerly known as MOBINODE.com, Technode.com today is “the leading bilingual tech media in China covering startups and large listed companies, entrepreneurial community, and angel/VC investment activities.” Gang Lu is also the Co-Founder of OpenWeb.asia Workgroup, a blogging network focused on the Asian web industry and enhancing “the intercommunication of local Internet markets.”Gang Lu speaks to the parallels between the relatively recent relaxing of the top-down cultural dynamic in the Chinese family and workplace as the key that sparked the level of entrepreneurship that we see in the country today. With the government now encouraging the growth of new tech startups, Chinese society has become ripe for innovation that, according to Gang Lu, is only beginning.The world of media is obviously very different in China than it is in the West. For one, copyright is not enforced at nearly the same level, leading to a lot of outright plagiarism between companies. Advertisements are also valued much lower in China. Instead, to stay profitable, media companies rely heavily on sponsored articles. It of course follows that since articles can be commissioned by outside parties, the integrity of the information being published is often questionable.With the rise of the tech industry in Asia, TechNode, in collaboration with the Macao International Grand Events Promotion Association, is organizing the first two-day BEYOND International Technology Innovation Expo at the Venetian Macau on June 17, 2021. Gang Lu believed the time had come to shine a spotlight on Asia-based tech startups and other companies at an Asian venue instead of in the West where most of these events are usually held. Calling Macau “the Vegas of Asia”, he pinpointed the Venetian as the perfect place to kick off the first BEYOND Expo.Finally, Gang Lu speaks on the 996 culture, the U.S.-China trade war, and blockchain. To these three developing topics, he adopts a wait-and-see mindset, saying that China does not currently seem to be budging in its big-picture economic priorities despite (or maybe because of) the ongoing pandemic, increasing global dependence on digital solutions, and the transition of power in the U.S. Key Quotes:“I think, before 2011, you didn't see that many startups. But after 3G took off, suddenly you saw the mobile market booming.” “If we look at the global tech space, there are so many new companies that are not in the States or Europe. They are in China and other Asian countries. We need not just an event, but a platform where people can go every year to showcase their technologies and innovations in Asia.” “Why is China moving so fast? I think China, for many reasons, is able to open the market to adopt new applications and infrastructures like 5G.”

In this episode, we explore and unpack the relationship between the tech ecosystem and the media. We'll seek answers to questions such as - what roles do media publications play in the ecosystem? How does this differ between international and local publications? What are the key considerations for the media in doing this work, particularly from a talent and business model perspective? What about companies creating their own content - what is their motivation and what can be learned? And, why is there seemingly a contentious relationship between African tech and the media?2:27 - We talk public relations utility and strategy, with Wimbart's Jessica Hope. 6:47 - What role does international tech media play in the ecosystem? We hear from TechCrunch contributing writer Jake Bright.12:05 - A discussion with Tomiwa Aladekomo, of Big Cabal Media, the parent company to TechCabal, on the publications' objectives and challenges. 17:03 - We explore how one publication, Stears Business, is tackling information scarcity, talent, and business model challenges in Nigeria, with Preston Ideh.23:05 - We speak with Paystack's Emmanuel Quartey on the company's editorial approach and hiring content to solve a problem. 28:23 - Is there a contentious relationship between African tech and the media? Are those in the ecosystem playing their part in sharing with requisite openness and transparency? 30:41 - A retrospective conversation between Sayo Folawiyo, Justin Norman, and this episode's co-producer Osarumen Osamuyi, on the environmental challenges of building sustainable media businesses and meeting the expectations of the tech ecosystem.

Hey, hello everybody. This is Ramesh Dontha, the podcast host for the agile entrepreneur podcast. And this year 2020, this is my first podcast and also, we are also doing the video cast as well. So I'm very, very excited to introduce today our guests, Corey Minton, who is the editor in chief of Big Data Beard. So Corey, welcome. 00:30 Corey: Hey, thank you very much Ramesh. Glad to be on another podcast. It's pretty fun. 00:35 Ramesh: Yeah, this is going to be a video cast as well. So I came across your Big Data Beard and I met you in Las Vegas for the BrightTalk interview. Impressed with what you guys are doing and you talked a lot about Big Data Beard and then switching the direction. So why don't we take it from the beginning? So what is Big Data Beard and then how you got involved with it? 00:57 Corey: Absolutely. So Big Data Beard is a creative media company that's really focused on talking about the trends, technologies and the talented people that are really making big data a big deal. And big data is certainly evolved over the last few years, has becoming an in-vogue term that people didn't really understand completely. And it was exciting to now it's almost, it gets polarizing, right? But it really, what we try to focus on is finding those nuggets of wisdom with smart people and smart companies that are leveraging AI, Big data, machine learning, deep learning, IOT, this modern emerging technology landscape to really do something transformative. So whether that's, you know, talking with the founders and the CTOs at cool, interesting startup companies to talking with industry executives who are actually using these technologies to impact the quality of human life or their business. And so really, it's really a great way for myself and our other contributors and members of the podcast team to really get to talk to the best and the brightest in the industry. And we really, that's how we started. We really just wanted an excuse to talk to the best and the brightest so that we would constantly stay as educated as possible on these emerging trends. So that we can continue to be great technologists in a variety of ways. 02:38 Ramesh: Okay, fantastic. So that is fine, actually you're doing a very interesting thing Corey, one is that you're fully employed, but started Big Data Beard on the side as a side hustle I would say. So talk a little bit about the Corey not the big beard guy. What do you do? 02:57 Corey: Yeah, so not Big Data Beard, my job is, I'm a strategist for Splunk, which is a big data software company, a publicly traded company. Very interesting, cool software used really to help make machine generated data usable, accessible, and valuable to everyone. And so my job as a strategist is very much to help understand where is the industry goin...
