As we continue into 2019, we sat down and chatted with the ladies behind Innovation Calling , a podcast out of the Dallas area who came in town to chat with us about running studios, best practices, etc., and it led to some great comparisons between the Dallas and Detroit tech and startup scenes along the way… Innovation Calling is at  https://www.innovationcalling.com/ IT in the D On the we...

It was the best of times… it was the worst of… Yeah, there’s really no cliche that fits here, other than the Boys II Men song “It’s so hard to say goodbye”. Our apologies (and fair warning ahead of time) that we all got pretty emotional during this one. It wasn’t easy to record it, and isn’t all that easy to listen to, either. A man who has been like...

We had an absolutely awesome episode this time around chatting with a man who’s working to bring us flying ubers (or flying lyfts… or just flying rideshare stuff… whatever floats your boat), and then an insane giveaway offer from a company that wants to revolutionize zero trust networking for both corporate and personal users.  So don’t miss out, and listen in… Detroi...
