In this episode of the DevReady Podcast, our hosts, Andrew Romeo and Anthony Sapountzis, are joined by Neville Christie, Future Maker at STEEP Renaissance. In this episode, he talks about STEEP Renaissance and the need to change mindsets and practice gratitude. 

Neville has been an entrepreneur since the age of 12. During his 69 years in innovation, entrepreneurship, and research, he always found that the biggest problems in the world are the source of the most significant opportunities. When in 2018, he sat down and spent time researching the social, technological, economic, ecological, and political trends, and he came up with two firm conclusions:
1. The decade will see substantial structural changes in the social, technological, economic, ecological, and political fabric
2. As a result of the changes, most nations will experience 40 tsunami-like events (pandemic, recession, financial crisis, war, changes in supply chains across the world, among others)

In this fun episode of the DevReady Podcast, our hosts, Andrew Romeo and Anthony Sapountzis are joined by Rex Kelly, General Manager & Manager of Marketing and Sales at Aerion Technologies. The conversation centers around the parallels that can be drawn between business and the movie in the spotlight for this edition of the Podcast—Ocean’s 11.

Danny Ocean assembled an A-Team in the movie. And there’s so much to learn from the movie if you are a start-up founder or the owner of a business.

Listen in as the conversation takes us through Mark’s medical career, the possibilities in the digital health space, his start-up experience, and the exciting world of robotics.

Mark has spent most of his career in the medical device sector. Towards the end of his medical school journey, he decided not to pursue additional clinical training. Instead, he rolled up a lot of his experience into his own consulting business, which is what BioEnginuity. And since 2018, he has been doing really several different consulting projects with clients as large as Johnsons & Johnsons but also small as emerging medical health companies in the digital health space.
