Clear communication fosters understanding and alignment among diverse stakeholders in green building projects. “Green buildings are not going away… Green buildings are an umbrella. There's a whole bunch of things underneath it, whether you're an energy efficiency geek or you really love to study how the built environment affects our forests or maybe you're really into passive design. There's a whole bunch of things that are underneath that sort of green building umbrella. There's going to be more and more legislation that requires your building to be efficient. There's going to be more and more incentives for your building to be efficient. I hope at some point we're not allowed to build inefficient buildings...” -Enzo Tessitore     Show Resource and Information Connect with Charlie Cichetti and GBES   GBES is excited our membership community is growing.

In this episode of Pro AV Today, host Ben Thomas explores the world of technology in the casino and gaming industry with Christopher Justice, a board member of the American Gaming Association. Their conversation highlights the crucial role technology plays in gaming establishments, from OEM technology on slot machines to advanced digital signage. However, behind these impressive innovations lies a complex web of compliance and cybersecurity challenges that the industry must tackle.Casinos face stringent regulatory standards, often more rigorous than those in other sectors like hospitality or education. Justice explained that gaming technology must meet the standards set by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) and additional compliance requirements such as PCI, AML, and KYC. These regulations ensure fair play and integrity while also necessitating a robust approach to cybersecurity. As gaming systems become more connected, the risk of cyber threats increases, requiring IT teams to implement multiple layers of security protocols, including NIST and PCI DSS standards.One unique aspect of the gaming industry is the intersection of highly regulated payments and gaming technologies. Justice pointed out that while gaming regulations focus on fair play and integrity, they often overlook data security, leaving vulnerabilities that can be exploited. This dual responsibility requires a culture of compliance within organizations to safeguard gaming integrity and data security.The integration of advanced technologies extends beyond the casino floor. Modern casinos now feature fully integrated rooms with personalized TV experiences and mobile connectivity. Justice highlighted the role of mobile devices as the primary interface for guests, enhancing their experience by offering customized services based on user preferences. This shift towards a mobile-first approach presents both opportunities and challenges, particularly in managing the vast amounts of data generated and ensuring compliance across various regulatory standards.Justice emphasized the importance of IT departments in managing these technologies and maintaining compliance. The complexity of integrating old and new systems, along with varying levels of technology across different casino operators, adds to the challenge. Despite these hurdles, the goal remains to deliver a seamless and secure experience for guests.As the industry continues to evolve, the focus on enhancing customer experiences through technology will only intensify. Justice's insights underscore the need for ongoing innovation and collaboration within the industry to meet regulatory demands and exceed guest expectations. For those looking to enter this dynamic field, he suggests leveraging resources like the American Gaming Association to navigate the regulatory landscape and forge meaningful partnerships.The conversation between Thomas and Justice provides a comprehensive overview of the technological and regulatory landscape in the casino and gaming industry, offering valuable insights for industry professionals and newcomers alike.

Transatlantic Tech Talks is a three part mini-series on the Undercurrents podcast feed, produced with the support of Microsoft, which explores the state of international cooperation on digital governance between the United States, the UK and Europe. As technological innovation accelerates, and new digital tools and business models arise, governments are working to develop a framework of regulations to safeguard the rights and interests of their citizens. Not all stakeholders agree, however, on the best way to achieve this. While some advocate a ‘digital cooperation' approach based on transparency and data-sharing, others are more concerned with maintaining ‘digital sovereignty'. In this second episode, we explore the issue of digital technical standards, the rules and parameters which govern the development of technologies and ensure interoperability between countries and businesses. Isabella Wilkinson speaks to Emily Taylor (CEO of Oxford Information Labs), Bilel Jamoussi (Chief of the Study Groups Department at the ITU) and Richard Wingfield (Head of Legal at GPD), who explain why digital technical standards are so vital to the digital economy, and why they are inreasingly coming under threat.  Credits: Speakers: Bilel Jamoussi, Emily Taylor, Richard Wingfield Hosts: Ben Horton, Isabella Wilkinson Editor: Jamie Reed Sound Services Music: Jamie Reed Sound Services Recorded and produced by Chatham House

In this episode, Jeff talks tech governance with Shelia Warren, Head of Blockchain, Data, and Digital Assets at the World Economic Forum. While tech leaders often think that governance hinders innovation, Warren argues that a basic governance framework can help solution developers think more deliberately about their products and build more inclusive experiences for users, which ultimately translates to higher adoption. Warren also posits that good governance practice increases public confidence in new technologies, in sharp contract from the negative aspects of largely unregulated technologies or crypto assets (think, bitcoin). Jeff and Sheila also discuss the implications of “self-governance” in decentralized systems like blockchain, and the need to align tech developers and policy specialists. Join us for an in-depth conversation that just may change the way you look at governance in tech.

Dr. Marley Doyle is a reproductive psychiatrist at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. She's also "legally blind", with 20/400 vision. She struggled through medical school just like all med students, but with that additional complication. She made it, however, and her discussion with Aditi Patel and Irisa Mahaparn gives some clues as to why. First, her disability was invisible which made it easy for people to assume that she wasn't disabled. And second, she was naive to the fact that she could ask for help. In other words, she stumbled through it all and came out the other side without having been a "burden" for her school. Years later, she acknowledges that she could have asked for more help. We also discuss the technical standards that most schools have in place to define what a student physician should be able to do physically, intellectually, and emotionally to succeed in school. These standards, however, often seem to be written with a stereotypical disabled person in mind, one who cannot possible succeed because of their disability, and thus should not be in medical school. We discuss the concept of "assumed competence" which, as recent CCOM guest lecturer Dr. Oluwaferanmi Okanlami pointed out, allows people with disabilities to show they are able to fulfill their duties as opposed to assuming they cannot. And we discuss the AAMC's recent first-of-its-kind report "Accessibility, Inclusion, and Action in Medical Education Lived Experiences of Learners and Physicians With Disabilities," which brought to light the inconsistent policies and procedures for, lack of support of, and lack of awareness many schools have of their legal obligations under the law towards students with disabilities. And we talk about why med schools that don't encourage disabled people to apply are missing out on a piece of the diversity puzzle. Plus, Dr. Doyle helps answer a listener who is lucky enough to have several med school acceptances, and wants to know how to decide among them! Lucky you, 'Anxious Premed!' Don't worry, we can help. Are you living with a disability and discouraged about your med school plans? Are you in medical school, disabled, and have some advice to offer?

Our topic for this episode is Technical Standards for offshore wind, and our guest is Walt Musial, Manager of Offshore Wind at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, or NREL. Walt was in Washington, D.C. recently to chair a meeting of the Offshore Wind Technical Advisory Panel, which is where we caught up for this interview.
