For our final episode of season 2, this time it's Jim who sits on the other end. Our special guest host is his longtime mentee — and CEO of Nexleaf Analytics — Nithya Ramanathan.
What led to the decision to prioritize social impact over the stereotypical Silicon Valley (attempt at) wealth for its own sake? Guided by Nithya's insightful questioning, Jim's narrative takes us through the early experiences that shaped his sense of empathy without ever losing his innate curiosity for science and technology. As they discuss the evolution of social entrepreneurship, the significance of data sovereignty, Jim and Nithya explore the foundational layers of tech that are needed for the future of systems change.
This episode is a call for all tech professionals and leaders to harness their skills in service of the world's most pressing challenges. Join us as we close Season Two with a conversation that's as much about looking forward as it is about looking back.
