    Davos Recap - World Economic Forum Explainer, with Joseph Raczynski

    Recorded live in the Alps - check out the video version of this on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Gd2wam1QP5s In this video, I break down exactly how the Davos conference works, moving past the headlines to show you the reality of the event. While most people see the soundbites on the news, the real dynamics of the World Economic Forum happen between the different "zones" of the city. I explain the complex tiered badge system (and why the color of your badge matters so much), the difference between the official Congress Centre events and the hundreds of corporate pavilions that take over the town, and the intense security protocols that turn a small Swiss ski village into a fortress. From the logistics of getting invited to the networking dynamics that drive global decisions, this is your complete "Futurist's Guide" to understanding the ecosystem of Davos 2026. In this video, I cover: The Layout: Understanding the Congress Centre vs. the "Outside" events. The Badge System: Breaking down the hierarchy of access (White, Hotel, and Public badges). The Security: What it takes to secure 3,000 global leaders in one valley. The Networking: How business actually gets done in the lounges and pop-up venues. The Verdict: Is the conference truly impactful for the future of tech and policy? Send us a text Many more amazing technology episodes to come! Subscribe and prepare for the new world.

    Cardano and the Evolution of Trust in Web3 Finance with Frederik Gregaard

    Cardano is the 10th largest cryptocurrency by market cap, sitting around 22.5 Billion dollars. That’s quite a number given its ICO raised approximately $62 million from 2015-2017 at a price of $0.0024. Cardano is part of what I call the old guard of cryptocurrencies launched after Ethereum, by Charles Hoskinson, which launched the era of smart contracts. Much has changed from that period, speculation, ICOs, NFT crazy, DeFi Summer, the meme coin craze, and now RWA, or Real World Assets. Today, Corporate crypto treasuries have grown to $100 billion, but most are still managed with spreadsheets and scattered wallets that lack transparency and control. The questions today are what can we do about this next phase to keep things transparent and clear for all parties participating. Send us a text Many more amazing technology episodes to come!
