Episode 9 - Francesca Gomez

In this episode of our Emerging Tech Talks podcast we spoke with Francesca Gomez, Co-Founder of Smarter Human. Smarter Human translates data from financial services firms into meaningful insights in real-time, enabling quick and informed decisions to be made around risk and compliance. We talked with Francesca about graph databases, the Panama Papers, the reason diversity is so important in tech and we also got some advice to share with young women who are interested in tech but maybe put off, unnecessarily, by ‘Computer Science’ “When you’re creating technology you can actually… you’re creating the future because technology now it underpins so many fields – having the knowledge and the ability to understand how computers work and how you create applications helps you actually influence the future and I think when you don’t have a good gender diversity you start seeing things like algorithms which are biased because you just don’t have the designers there.” Francesca Gomez Link to the full episode script: https://www.mad4digital.com/episode-9-francesca-gomez

Episode 8 - Lora Haddock

In this episode of our Emerging Tech Talks podcast we spoke with Lora Haddock, founder and CEO of Lora DiCarlo - creators of the Osé personal massager and first-ever handsfree micro-robotics sextech product. Haddock came to the idea of creating the Osé after her first blended orgasm which ‘literally threw her off the bed’. The Osé is a serious bit of tech which won the CES 2019 Innovation Awards Honoree in the Robotics and Drone product category. An award which was then rescinded for reasons covered in this interview. The Osé “uses advanced micro-robotics to mimic all of the sensations of a human mouth, tongue & fingers, for an experience that feels just like a real partner, no need for vibration. It even adapts to your body for a personal fit that hits all the right spots.” Being a product that is unapologetically focused on the pleasure of people with vaginas and members of LGBTQ communities, it’s been a complicated road for Lora DiCarlo. We chat with Lora about stigma, inequality, blended orgasms, the urgent need for diversity at the top levels of business, her time in the navy and her aim to create products that help everyone feel comfortable in the skin they’re in right now...Enjoy!

Episode 6 - Jonathan DeCarteret

With a STO launch coming up on May 1st, we spoke with Jonathan DeCarteret of INDX Capital about the state of crypto, reasons to invest and why with a degree in AI and psychology he picked masternodes. “Masternodes can be viewed as just the next generation of mining. Unlike Bitcoin mining - which requires huge computers, electricity costs - masternodes just run on everyday servers...The great thing about masternodes is that once you’ve got them up and running they just pump out revenue 24/7 for you.” Guests: Jonathan DeCarteret Requested drinks: green tea, please!
