Trond Undheim, futurist, speaker, entrepreneur, venture partner, and the author of a new book, Augmented Lean in this second episode gets to the practical details of how flexibility can be achieved in manufacturing plants after a 50 year innovation hiatus. Trond draws on his industrial tech background, understanding of manufacturers' realities, and recognition of frontline workers' expertise to develop flexible, augmented environments. He recommends balancing inputs from both employees on the shop floor and management to “hack and govern” new solutions. Trond acknowledges these are long term paradigm shifts.     KEY TAKEAWAYS   [02:57] Trond explains the deskless reality for factory workers results from forgetting to innovate for 50 years.   [05:00] Adding multiple screens gives employees the data they need and freedom to walk around.   [05:36] How no code technology now allows data to be widely available and accessible.   [06:26] Up to date information augments workers' intelligence and real-time operational decisions.   [07:03] The first killer application is digital work instructions.   [07:52] Tech advances enable empathetic learning as feedback is immediate and uncontentious.   [09:44] Augmented lean approaches technology integration in a smarter way—top down and bottom up.   [10:54] Governance is an essential aspect of modern organizations.   [11:42] The problems arising with top down only technology integration.   [12:57] The benefit of bottom up analysis of bottlenecks and operating needs.   [13:51] The advantage of workers' general understanding of operations and cross-training.   [14:38] In manufacturing, employees have to be learning on the job, on site.   [15:27] How can we expect an innovative workplace if the tools do not augment workers?   [16:32] Greenfields permit shortcuts so workers can add digital apps to legacy systems.   [17:44] What to do with legacy machines.   [18:39] Taking a First Principles approach to production based on value creation.   [19:10] Augmented lean is about context and flexibility.   [20:32] “Hack and Govern” – hacking is bottom up and governing is top down.   [23:58] Apps-based productivity in this digital revolution needs a certain amount of flexibility.   [24:56] Empowering and inspiring frontline workers to show their experience and improve ROI.   [26:15] How to get new workers interested in manufacturing jobs in the US.   [28:08] What is factory work like now? What do factories look and sound like?   [32:43] What does Trond think about Musk's edict “return or resign”?   [34:25] Backlash or not, managers have a losing proposition trying to get everyone back to the office.   [35:44] This decade, Trond does not see factory work being done 100% on site.   [37:12] With significant advanced technologies, the shop floor has more pull than office environments.   [38:52] New fluid interfaces that interact with workers—the factory floor wasn't ready at first.   [42:01] With cyber-physical systems, ‘prototype to product' is not easy and can take time.     [43:42] The vision of “lean” in Trond's new book.   [44:54] Did we take a wrong fork in the road away from cyber-physical systems in the 1970s?   [46:22] IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: Rinse and repeat! Use quick iterations to experiment your way through to positive change. Hack and Govern: the juxtaposition of bottom-up and top down approaches for a more balanced outcome.     RESOURCES   Trond Undheim on LinkedIn Trond on Twitter Futurized & Augmented podcasts Augmented Lean: A Human-Centric Framework for Managing Front-Line Operations, by Trond Arne Undheim Tulip.co     QUOTES    “If the tools that we are providing to the workforce don't augment them, don't make them feel meaningful, don't give them dignity, and don't give them knowledge, how can we expect to have an innovative workplace?”   “You have to govern technology … but on the other hand, the internet revolution is all about hacking, it is about bottom-up initiative, about enabling your smartest nerds — who nowadays can be someone who didn't study computer science.”   “There are so many exciting factories right now … they have robots, they have digital interfaces, factories don't look like you might imagine they do!”   “Tesla is today's Ford — it is not a virtual organization of software programmers — Tesla produces something physical, they have factory floors, in fact, they have some of the world's biggest factories that they just opened in Texas.”   “Software is easy, cyber-physical systems are hard.”   “Think in sprints, allow hacks, don't forget to govern.”   “There is no management of workers that doesn't include letting them experiment and try out new things, and there is no responsible management approach that lets everyone do their own thing.”

Trond Undheim, futurist, speaker, entrepreneur, venture partner, and author of a new book “Augmented Lean”. Trond draws on his technology-focused background across public, academic, and private sectors to discuss the need and solutions for workplace flexibility for frontline manufacturing workers. Acknowledging the paradigm shift to employ a human-centric approach, integrating employees' inputs, Trond highlights sophisticated new software which improve frontline experiences and overall results. These solutions optimize processes and augment workers rather than emphasize machine automation.    KEY TAKEAWAYS   [03:19] Trond's path starts in a random manner when he notices a poster!   [04:55] How Trond canceled Christmas to write his Ph.D. proposal in two weeks.   [06:02] Norway's phone company is exploring the nomadic workplace in 1998.   [07:44] Trond does fieldwork in Silicon Valley that is selling “placelessness”.   [09:18] Trond becomes sought after for technology policy decision-making, government thinktanks, energy policy, and eventually economics at the E.U..   [12:19] Standardization: Trond explains how fascinating and essential it is—eg the Apple charger.   [14:54] How interoperability and openness have been important new developments.   [16:19] Trond equates learning standards and standardization like foreign languages.   [19:22] Trond's work at MIT on no-code language and the impact it can have on the workplace.   [20:42] Advanced efforts to transform the factory floor with productivity tools for frontline workers.   [22:08] The tech user interface is finally simple enough to get out of the way.   [22:49] Was the emphasis on automation was the wrong path to take—being technology deterministic?   [23:00] When it comes to manufacturing, why has the focus historically been on automation and efficiency?   [24:49] The question is NOT “Are the robots going to take over?” That has been a distraction.   [26:10] How can we think about the “how” of work differently to get on the right track? Trond offers a fundamental to ask question first.    [27:20] The role of business schools in producing leaders who think they know best!   [28:20] Changing the paradigm from a quest for lifelong specialization in one domain to multiple specializations over time with general systems knowledge.   [31:40] How a human-centric manufacturing approach gathers and benefits from front-line workers' and middle managers' years of expertise.   [34:17] Why “cobots” are an important reframing of machines as “robots” are defined as “dangerous”.   [36:52] Bridging the digital/physical divide through augmentation to transform frontline workers toward knowledge work—Trond explains why this is a good thing.   [40:45] How greater advances now can be made augmenting how frontline workers work rather than automating machines.   [42:30] The potential for renewed glory in manufacturing by augmenting the entire workforce. Tune in for Part 2 – the practical “how” to make it happen.   RESOURCES   Trond Undheim on LinkedIn Trond on Twitter Futurized & Augmented podcasts Augmented Lean book by Trond Arne Undheim Tulip.co   QUOTES    “It sounds extremely dry, but standardization is super interesting. It's the driver of the economy: it builds markets.”   “Markets are built: they are very purposely constructed architectures of rules, regulations, and standards.”   “Multiple specialities consecutively throughout your career has to be the target.”   “In a true human centric vision of manufacturing, the humans are always at the center---the whole idea is manufacturing has always been about innovation.”   “The overall perspective that ‘management knows best' is detrimental to a true understanding of human work.”   “To make progress, the smart thing is to augment your workforce more than you automate your machines.”

In this episode, Trond Undheim joins the show. Based outside of Boston. Trond is a futurist, podcaster, investor, author, speaker, entrepreneur and the former director of MIT Startup Exchange.

Jean-Claude Burgelman, Professor of Open Science Policy at the Free University of Brussels, interviewed by host Trond Arne Undheim.  In this conversation, they talk about The Impact of Digital on Science. JC Burgelman’s career spans the EU, foresight, Media, and tech assessment. We discuss the role of foresight in EU policy. What are the big challenges? Fallout of COVID has compelled science from closed to open, from premium to collaborative. Is a 5th revolution in science irreversible? What has been learned? We talk about how the business model is shifting from articles to data and touch on next decade’s science and publishing. My takeaway is that data is the new oxygen and science is opening up. How quickly will it happen? Quicker than you would think. Yet, proprietary publishing models still have some gas in the tank and don't misunderstand that with open science everything will somehow be free. Scientific institutions, teams of scientists, and perhaps even individual scientists, will, rather, be able to price themselves more accurately. There might be a bigger discrepancy between good science and bad science, and perhaps less of the latter.

Chronic Disease Management. Exciting applications (health coaching, telehealth, mHealth, chatbots, agent assist, augmentation, scaling personalization, digital characters, animation, avatars). Perspectives on the future.The takeaway is that  Digital Health AI must emerge but only when we are sure the software truly works. For now, what we have is scattered machine learning applications that approximate meaning and compute fairly mindlessly. Hyperpersonalized health will indeed depend on AI, but the tech will only succeed if its developers realize that life is complex, people are different, and there was a reason healthcare has been somewhat tailored to each person in a manual fashion. Behavioral health apps are great, but need to be integrated into the health system in an interoperable manner before it can have its true effect on population health and individual health outcome. Having listened to this episode, check out Dalang Health as well as Catherine Havasi's online profile:Catherine Havasi (@catherinehavasi) https://www.linkedin.com/in/havasi/  Dalang Health (@dalangtech) https://www.dalanghealth.com/ Homepage https://www.catherinehavasi.com/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Tuğberk Duman, Head of Innovation at Futurice, the Finnish consultancy, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about  Why thinking about a world beyond the screen? Invisible user interface where natural gestures (body movements, perhaps even thoughts) trigger interactions. Current examples making use of Alexa, Google Home, Siri, Cortana, or Google Glass). Experiments, Trends in UI design, Design thinking inspiration and components (chatbots, biometrics, computer vision, new ecosystem business models). Emerging use cases. Surprising industries are first adopters.  The next decade—what will happen next to Zero UI and in which sequence?.The takeaway is that whilst it would be nice to think we are there, we in fact have a ways to go before we reach the ultimate Zero User Interface Experience. Having said that, the world beyond the screen is desperately needed, as we reel from coronavirus-induced work fatigue. The surprising thing is that it’s not really the technology that’s stopping us--it’s our imagination. We would be fully capable of coming up with compelling user interfaces already today, using existing technologies, if we only knew how. After listening to this episode, check out Futurice as well as Tuğberk Duman's online profile:Futurice https://futurice.com/Tuğberk Duman (@tugberkdmn) https://www.linkedin.com/in/tu%C4%9Fberk-duman-b0947148/The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Jon Wellinghoff, CEO of GridPolicy and former Chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. Now a quick word from our partners: Cleantech.org is a leading virtual research institute and incubator to the cleantech sector, with an online membership base of over 45,000. Subscribe to the site to learn more about cleantech and meet scientists and entrepreneurs to commercialize your ideas. Contact info AT cleantech.org. That’s cleantech.org/In this conversation, they talk about The transdisciplinary mindset needed to understand energy innovation, The policy/regulation impasse. The downside of monopolistic utilities (at the distribution, transmission, and generation levels). Sustainable energy systems, Distributed energy resource (DER) systems. Disruptive forces--particularly policy barriers (and opportunities). The regulatory tools available in the US and abroad (FERC, State regulators), the Texas case of free utility competition, exciting startups in the space (Smartwires, Whisker Labs, etc), the impact of innovation on the policy mix and outcome. Lastly, we discuss the next decade. The takeaway is that Grid Energy Innovation seems to finally be underway, and with that, we can see transformation across the grid and consumers can finally get involved. However, energy still consists of a myriad of separate markets, both nationally and regionally, and that total picture is not likely to change any time soon. Once it does, we are looking at opportunities that are very hard to fathom, and implications for how we live and how our planet responds.   Having listened to this episode, check out Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), GridPolicy and Jon Wellinghoff's online profile:Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (@FERC) https://www.ferc.gov/ Grid Policy http://gridpolicy.com/Jon Wellinghoff (@jbwellinghoff) https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonwellinghoff/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Nick Jankel, transformational futurist, the CEO and co-founder of Switch On, and author of the new book Now Lead The Change, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about The Personal Development Market. VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity). Trends in Self-help, Leadership, Therapy, Coaching, and Healing. Brain science. Wisdom. Practical psychology. Bio-Transformation Theory.   Reading cognitive v. emotional signals in yourself and others. The future of business and human personal development, next decade and beyond. Being future-proof (as organizations and individuals).The takeaway is that the Personal Development Market is just starting up. If you include Therapy, Coaching, Leadership, and Mindfulness apps, it may well be a 100 billion market. The idea that we should be the change we want to see in the world, a saying that has been attributed to the famous Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi, is easy to pronounce but hard to do, but may well be an essential insight. What is for certain is that we cannot sit around waiting for positive change, no matter where we are on the societal ladder. Tying it explicitly to futurist thinking was novel to me and quite refreshing. After listening to this episode, check out Switch On, Now Lead the change--the book, as well as Nick Jankel's online profile:Switch On https://switchonnow.com/Now Lead the change https://www.amazon.com/Now-Lead-Change-Future-Proof-Transformational-ebook/dp/B085TRK243 Nick Jankel (@nickjankel) https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickjankel/The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Dmitry Kaminskiy, Partner, Deep Knowledge Ventures, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about What is longevity and why does it matter if we live longer? Health span v. Lifespan. The Intersection of AgeTech, WealthTech and FinTech. The silver tsunami (of aging). Quality-adjusted life-year (QALY). Scenarios. Rise of policy scene for longevity. Biomarkers on the path to population health. How AI intersects with longevity. P4 (Preventive, Precision, Personalized and Participatory) Medicine. Who will first reach their 123rd birthday? A Manhattan project for longevity. The Longevity Industry 1.0 and 2.0—towards the next trillion dollar industry.The takeaway is that longevity may indeed be the next trillion dollar industry and may perhaps be the most complex industry as well. Staying in good health is an important shared goal across the globe, and our health is constantly under threat from diseases, including aging. However, there is a drastic difference in the goals of increasing healthspan v. increasing life span. To my mind, there might even have to be a significant ethical debate whether life span is worth increasing on a general basis. Do we really need to live that much longer? Is there an optimal life span and does it depend on the available resources or the available meaning of life that the individual has at any given time? These are complex questions without obvious answers. After listening to the episode, check out Deep Knowledge Ventures, Longevity 1.0, the book, as well as Dmitry Kaminskiy's online profile:Deep Knowledge Group https://www.dkv.global/ Longevity 1.0 https://www.longevity-book.com/ Dmitry Kaminskiy (@DmitryKaminskiy) https://www.kaminskiy.info/ and https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmitrykaminskiy/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Ben Goertzel, CEO and founder of SingularityNET and Chairman of the Artificial General Intelligence Society, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, we talk about Futuristic applications of interoperable AI. Sophia- the robot. Singularity. Transhumanism. How to define intelligence . Decentralized, Distributed, interoperable AI. The importance of trust to progress with technology. Future of human-computer interaction. My takeaway is that futuristic AI will continue to fascinate, whether we ever get there--or not. It is a Janus faced future the proponents of Artificial General Intelligence are exploring. Will it solve more problems than it creates? In reality, it’s not a question of when we get there --un less we suddenly find ourselves needing that level of intelligence for an existential survival issue for our race, but how we get there. At some point, we likely will. But whether it will take 50 or 150 years, I’m less sure about. After listening to this episode, check out SingularityNET and Ben Goertzel's online profile:SingularityNET https://singularitynet.io/Ben Goertzel https://www.linkedin.com/in/bengoertzel/The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Jon Tota, CEO and founder of Syntax + Motion and host of the Learning Life Podcast, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, we talk about The future of learning experience design. Shifting focus from the teacher to thinking about learners first. How to teach true skills? How do you get the user to interact? From learning management systems (LMS) via design thinking to learning experience platforms (LXP). Should everybody have their own online course for personal branding? Corporate learning. Individual thought leadership. How to navigate the noise? What to consume? What to produce? How to earn money with content?The takeaway is that learning experience design is an ever-evolving field which finally is taking off. We need it. Learning should be fun, interactive, engaging and learning software platforms should be well thought out and easy to use. It’s slowly starting to happen.After listening to the episode, check out Syntax + Motion, the Learning Life Podcast as well as Jon Tota's online profile:Jon Tota (@jontota) https://thriveloud.com/thrive_loud/272-jon-tota/ Syntax+Motion ( https://www.syntaxproduction.com/ Learning Life podcast https://learninglifeshow.com The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Jaya Baloo, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), Avast Software, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about why is it so hard to eradicate cybersecurity challenges? Internet Organised Crime Threat Assessment (IOCTA). Threats we are ready for and know about vs. Threats we don’t know about are not ready for. The Quantum Market Players, Challenges, and applications. What quantum security challenges do you worry about in the next decade? Jaya uses the story of Alice, Bob, and ex-girlfriend Eve to illustrate quantum security. How to teach quantum computing to a new gen of engineers. The takeaway is that quantum security is just around the corner--because if it isn’t, we are all in trouble. Quantum computing has gone from being a theoretical possibility, to a highly experimental, niche application among a few computer firms, to a significant, emerging government concern, and a future business opportunity for those with a lot of data to crunch fast. Most of us don’t need to worry about it in this decade, but doing so, is a bit like not thinking about retirement in your twenties. It isn’t necessary, but it is smart to do. After listening to the episode, check out Avast Software as well as Jaya Baloo's online profile:Avast Software https://www.avast.com/en-us/index#pc Jaya Baloo (@jayabaloo} https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaya-baloo-558492/The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Urho Konttori,  co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer of Varjo, the mixed reality equipment maker, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about The Future of Industrial-grade Mixed Reality (MR).  The advent of enterprise/industrial-grade AR/VR/XR/MR/hybrid reality and its impact on RR. Which companies are using it already?  Current professional user types. Emerging use cases. Why is Varjo so focused on human-eye resolution devices and hi-res MR? We discuss adoption timelines and formfactors as well as remaining technical/market challenges.  We look into the Future of mixed reality (5-10 years ahead).The takeaway is that industrial mixed reality has now come of age. It is only a question of few years, until large swaths of industry and a plethora of professionals will depend on it to do their job. The pandemic could not have come at a bigger inflection point for the industry. After listening to this episode, check out Varjo as well as Urho Konttori's online profile:Varjo https://varjo.com/Urho Konttori (@konttori) https://www.linkedin.com/in/urho-konttori-aa16835/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Gabriel Luna-Ostaseski is the Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer of Braintrust, the first user-controlled talent network, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about  the results from building and investing in 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation marketplaces. Is blockchain overhyped? Emerging marketplaces with non-extractive externalities and truly sharing control and ownership. The path and possible end point(s) of decentralization in the next decade and beyond.My takeaway is that next generation marketplaces that favor the users as opposed to corporations, are rare but increasingly important for the marketplace concept to survive. After listening to the episode, check out Braintrust as well as Gabriel Luna-Ostaseski's online profile:Braintrust https://www.usebraintrust.com/Gabriel Luna-Ostaseski (@gabelunao) https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabelunaostaseski/  The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Chloe Demrovsky, CEO of Disaster Recovery Institute, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, we talk about The Future of Risk and Resilience. How to handle disasters. Chronic stressors v. Sudden shocks. What organizations should be worrying about right now. Risk management. How to increase resilience. Opportunities from crisis. How organizations can survive and thrive in the next decade.The takeaway is that in order to fully prepare for the next decade, there is really no way around developing a systematic take on risk and resilience. There is so much to know but a first step is to be aware of the organizations and frameworks that exist to help executives map their risk and start developing approaches that might work no matter what happens to their organizational assets in a crisis. After listening to the episode, check out Disaster Recovery Institute and Chloe Demrovsky's online profile:Disaster Recovery Institute https://drii.org/Chloe Demrovsky chloe-demrovsky (LinkedIn) and @ChloeDemrovsky (Twitter)The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Shaun Vanderpool, CEO and founder of Il Lupo and Hempire, an avid hunter of emerging technology to commercialize, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim.In this conversation, they talk about how difficult it is for our educational system to recognize and adapt to individual exceptional abilities. We discuss the massive potential of Hemp, the vast energy potential of a new five phase engine, and briefly cover an emerging opportunity to extract Water directly from air humidity, each technologies Vanderpool has dug up ‘from under a rock’ and not at universities, and is now exploiting.The takeaway is that the future of emerging tech is, for all the hype around it, vastly underrated, given that it can be developed with such vastly improved efficiencies at such rapid pace. On the other hand, perhaps it takes a unique mind to identify and commercialize breakthrough tech.The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Gary Sheynkman, a first generation immigrant (to the US) from Kiev, Ukraine living in Dubai who runs Leyden Ventures, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about Arabian Tech. The Arabian startup scene. Accelerators and VC in the Middle East. Digital transformation of Arabic private equity approaches. Building a startup ecosystem from scratch. The Area 2071 initiative. The Middle East of the future.The takeaway is that the future of Arabian tech looks promising, although still nascent. The startup ecosystem in the Middle East will undoubtedly emerge strongly as traditional industries start to expire and a transition will occur. For now, the Middle East of the future is a vision, a reality in the hands of literally a handful of entrepreneurs in a small subset of cities across the region, most notably in Dubai. Don’t count them out. Also don’t assume it will happen overnight.After listening to the episode, check out Leyden VC as well as Gary's social media profile:Leyden VC https://leyden.vc/ GINCO Ventures https://www.ginco.investments/Gary Sheynkman (@sheynk) https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheynkman/ Gary's personal homepage sheynkman.comThe show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Sahra-Josephine Hjorth, CEO and co-founder of CanopyLAB, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, we talk about empowering learners, and about blended learning, moving beyond screen time to Virtual immersionm AI/AR – how to use tech the right way. We discuss tackling scaling challenges in social learning, EdTech post-COVID-19. We cover how Sahra collated and digitized more than 50+ ways of classroom learning in a teacher’s toolbox. How to plug the 21st-century skills gap? The next decade's learning reality.The takeaway is that social learning is much talked about but poorly understood. How could it be that Sahra-Josephine Hjorth -- in 2020 no less -- is among the few to describe each of the social and pedagogical components that go into teaching, this ancient practice that is so important?

Yael Tamar, CMO and co-founder of SolidBlock, the issuance platform for digital securities, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim.In this conversation, they talk about The tokenization of securities, starting with the pioneering use case of real estate, where SolidBlock in 2018, in collaboration with its partners, created Aspen Coin to finance the renovation of the St. Regis Aspen Resort, a 179-room luxury hotel. We spend some time discussing the basics of securitization and tokenization before moving to discussing how the deepening digitization creates financial transformation as well. Lastly, we discuss the ever present need for information on blockchain developments. Yael herself started the site Top of Blockchain.The takeaway is that the tokenization of securities has only just begun. Given its novelty, even real estate will take some time to onboard at scale to such a platform. However, when it does, the true revolution of fractionalized ownership and tradeability will enable swaths of new, emerging investors to enter the market, even from very low starting amounts. This could prove transformational for the emerging markets in Asia, South America and even Africa.After listening to the episode, check out SolidBlock as well as Yael Tamar's social media profile:SolidBlock (@SolidBlockCo)    https://www.solidblock.co/Yael Tamar (@yaeltamar) https://www.linkedin.com/in/yaeltamar/Top Of Blockchain https://topofblockchain.com/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Bill Carpou, CEO at OCTANE, the accelerator in California and General Partner at Visionary Ventures a growth stage fund is interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about how the newly formed Innovation Network of Southern California (InSoCal) is Building the Southern California of Tomorrow. We discuss how to build any innovation ecosystem, what the ingredients are, how to adapt to local and cultural dynamics, and how to thrive and grow. We also muse about ecosystems of the future.The takeaway is that the future of innovation ecosystems is up in the air. What worked in the past must be continuously adapted. Attempting to make a poor carbon copy of Silicon Valley is not going to cut it. inSoCal seem to have found a cool, networked model where they pool the resources from several existing regional networks and achieve momentum that way.After listening to the episode, check out OCTANE as well as Bill Carpou's social media profile:OCTANE (@OctaneOC) https://octaneoc.org/ EvoNexus (@EvoNexus) https://evonexus.org/Bill Carpou (@bcarpou) https://www.linkedin.com/in/bill-carpou-1b26b88/ OCTANe Collaborates with LAVA and SDVG to Form “Innovation Network of Southern California” https://octaneoc.org/octane-collaborates-with-lava-and-sdvg-to-form-innovation-network-of-southern-california/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Sidney Wheatley, CIO, Private Office of H.H. Sheikh Mohamed bin Salman bin Abdulla bin Hamad Al-Khalifa, Kingdom of Bahrain, is interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim, host of the Futurized podcast, and author of Future Tech (2021), Pandemic Aftermath (2020), Disruption Games (2020), and Leadership From Below (2008).In this conversation, they talk about The Future of Family Office Investing. Trends in family office investment portfolios. Global shifts, industry trends, foresight, tech investing, fintech, and blockchain. They discuss new consumption patterns for multimedia and film as well as other emerging sector plays. Furthermore, they cover diversification during times of turmoil, the changing nature of the petroleum industry towards the post-petroleum world and post-virus world. They cover the Bahrain Economic Vision 2030 and wonder what does the next decade look like?The takeaway is that Family Office Investing is adjusting to global events, innovative opportunities, and societal disruption with diversification and increased emphasis on technology startups as a new asset class. However, traditional assets, such as real estate, industry, and manufacturing still stand strong.After listening to the episode, check out the family office works for as well as Sidney's social media profile:Sidney Wheatley https://www.linkedin.com/in/sidney-wheatley-316a1227/ Sheikh Mohamed Bin Salman https://www.mohamedbinsalman.com/The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Timothy Morrissey, CEO and co-founder of Artimus Robotics interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, we talk about why develop artificial muscles? Tim explains the differences between; actuators, motors, engines, machines, robots, automation, augmentation, and humans—what a mouthful. We discuss how robots are poised to take over the dull, dangerous and dirty jobs, but not really many other jobs—in the near future. A soft robot’s artificial muscles’ advantages includes speed, energy density, power and efficiency. We discuss key emerging applications in industry, medicine and other fields, from berry pickers to automobiles, robots in the home, adult toys and beyond—yes, artificial can be REALLY soft, too.My takeaway is that soft robotics is what will make robots seem more human, which is nice and a bit scary, but that’s not really the point. The applications emerging are capable of non-human feats that will transform science, engineering, products, and—ultimately, our society. The immense progress envisioned is a ways out, what we are seeing now is really only scratching the surface. Prepare to be amazed a decade from now, and within the next thirty years, robots will be unrecognizable from what they are today. Some soft robots, nanobots, will also be so small that they will be invisible to the human eye. All exciting, exhilarating, and slightly perplexing. However, understanding soft robotics is not that hard—I’m going to make it recommended reading and exploration for my kids, at lest. Might as well prepare their for their adulthood, which will truly be he age of robotic coexistence. Science fiction come true, one might say.After listening to the episode, check out Artimus Robotics as well as Timothy Morrissey's online presence:Artimus Robotics (@ArtimusRobotics) https://www.artimusrobotics.com/Timothy Morrissey https://www.linkedin.com/in/tgmorrissey/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Thomas Clozel, CEO and co-founder of Owkin, the federated data network startup boosting AI for medicine, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about integrating AI and system biology to enable breakthrough medical moments. They explore how machine learning can be used to augment medical and biological research. In Owkin’s federated learning approach, the data stays put with the owners, but the learning models travel. Theydiscuss the data heterogeneity in healthcare, the need for interoperability, and we touch on hype versus reality.The takeaway is that AI for medicine is here to stay, it has come far, but has bumped into some fundamental obstacles—interoperability, explainability, privacy, and transparency—that need to be resolved before reaching its full potential. That’s even more important than evolving the base technology to become more efficient. This is why federated learning is such a crucial experiment. Can it work? Will it satisfy everyone? Time will show. AI is not monolithic and neither is medicine. There seems to be many contenders for glory, and there are many puzzles to solve. They won’t all go away this decade. After listening to the episode, check out Owkin as well as Thomas Clozel's online presence:Owkin (@OWKINscience) https://owkin.com/  Thomas Clozel (@TClozel) https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-clozel-m-d-408a9321/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Wafa Omar, founder of BizWhisper, a startup which is specialized in creative problem solving for entrepreneurs in the MENA region through mentoring, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim.In this conversation, we talk about startup mentoring in the UAE, in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), the political and economic alliance of six Middle Eastern countries—Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman, and ostensibly in the MENA region as a whole. We discuss being a female entrepreneur in the Middle East and what the future holds.My takeaway is that the future of mentoring startups in the UAE, GCV, and MENA region is crucial for growing a healthy, thriving startup ecosystem. Having a home grown mentoring platform that caters to culturally specific mentoring needs is terrific. After listening to the episode, check out  as well as Wafa Omar's online presence:Wafa Omar https://www.linkedin.com/in/wafa-omar-5392b0173/BisWhisper LinkedIn profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/bizwhisper-business-coaching-7384b01b3/Wafa Omar https://www.instagram.com/wafa_sbc The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Ori Inbar, Founder of Superventures and also CEO and founder of AugmentedReality.org, the organizer of AWE, the world’s most essential AR/VR conference since 2010, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, they talk about community building in the no longer so embryonic AR/VR space, the emergence of spatial computing, the Augmented Reality Expo (AWE). They discuss AR/VR venture capital, exciting and emerging use cases and form factors, market size, mobile AR, and COVID’s impact on remote tech. They explore the world in 2030 and the threats that the world is facing.The takeaway is that augmented reality has come a long way and is no longer a fringe technology, and the COVID-moment has made progress in the field a global tech priority. As for VR, the community is growing but developing true killer apps will take time. Maybe a good thing, because we are not really ready for what is to come. Will we evolve into a virtual species? Neither Ori nor Trond think so at this point. Ask them in thirty years, though.After listening to the episode, check out AWE as well as Ori Inbar's online presence:AWE (@ARealityEvent) https://www.awexr.com/Super Ventures (@super_ventures) https://www.superventures.com/Ori Inbar (@comogard) https://www.linkedin.com/in/oriinbar/The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.

Michel Bauwens, Founder of the P2P Foundation and co-author of Peer-to-Peer: The Commons Manifesto, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. In this conversation, we talked about how the world may have reached a tipping point where the balance between centralized and distributed activity as well as for profit and not for profit activity have overreached its boundaries. In Bauwens’ analysis, historically when this happens, with civilizations such as the Mayans, or the Chinese, a reversal of polarity happens, and society moves into healing mode. The difference this time, is that the system is global, and that we have nowhere else to go. Our challenge now is, whether we are capable of living within planetary boundaries. Bauwens, in this respect, subscribes to a functionalist pulse-wave theory of cyclical change.My takeaway is that the commons is indeed an interesting seemingly growing sentiment and a reaction to both big capitalism and libertarianism, a third way, if you will. I wrote about this phenomenon in my 2008 book Leadership From Below. Arguably, an increased focus on developing the commons, would help foster a more egalitarian, just and sustainable world. I found Bauwens critique of the crypto-anarchic divide between commoners and libertarians, the latter underlying blockchain quite interesting, as I had earlier perhaps put that effort more in the commons camp than it deserves, because at the surface, they are both about getting rid of the middleman. After listening to the episode, check out Michel's most recent book, the P2P Foundation, as well as his social media profile:Peer-to-Peer: The Commons Manifesto https://www.uwestminsterpress.co.uk/site/books/m/10.16997/book33/P2P Foundation https://p2pfoundation.net/Michel Bauwens (@mbauwens) https://www.linkedin.com/in/mbauwens/ The show is hosted by Podbean and can be found at Futurized.co.
