    HBR Asks: What Are NFTs, and Why Do They Matter? 19 Mar 2021 --- NFTs are all over the news. We decided to take a closer look and figure out just what this bitcoin-adjacent technology is — and whether it's worth the hype. 0:00 -- Intro 0:27 -- What are NFTs? 1:14 -- How are they related to bitcoin and blockchain? 2:29 -- Why are they in the news? 3:32 -- Why are people spending real money on NFTs? 4:25 -- The thing driving this: the idea of scarcity 5:24 -- What’s the future of NFTs, especially for business? 6:20 -- NFTs might (eventually) have practical business applications 6:45 -- Ok, do I really need to pay attention to these?

    Raytheon CEO Gregory Hayes: How Ukraine Has Highlighted Gaps in US Defense Technologies

    Raytheon CEO Gregory Hayes: How Ukraine Has Highlighted Gaps in US Defense Technologies 24 Mar 2022 --- Gregory Hayes is CEO and chairman of Raytheon Technologies, and offers a unique view on what it means to be running an aerospace and defense giant at a time when the whole world is fixated on the war in Ukraine. The company’s Javelin and Stinger missiles have been key ingredients in the Ukrainian resistance to Russian advances, but Hayes warned that “the Russians are ahead of [the US] in terms of having capabilities today to launch hypersonic missiles.” This interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success. Each week, HBR Editor Adi Ignatius will interview a leader on LinkedIn Live — and then share an inside look at those conversations and solicit questions for future discussions in a newsletter just for HBR subscribers.
