Big Technology Podcast - A Debate About NFTs — With Jason Stein

Jason Stein is the founder and managing partner at SC Holdings, a private equity and strategic advisory firm based in New York. He joins Big Technology Podcast to discuss the merits of NFTs, of which he is bullish and I am skeptical. This isn't a shouting match debate, but a reasonable back and forth between two people with different views on the issue. Stay tuned for the second half where we discuss how a struggling economy will impact risky assets.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S6 E17: Girish Redekar, Sprinto

If you would have told Girish Redekar while he was in college that he would eventually be writing software, he would have been shocked. His studies focused on electrical engineering, and post school, he was a hard core analyst. After some time, he and his friend decided to do the whole start up thing - they tried a bunch of ideas, and taught themselves to code. He remembers in his previous company he was the top contributor to the codebase until it was finally sold. Outside of tech, he is a movie buff - but bent towards the obscure movies that most haven't heard of... so obscure that he couldn't remember the name of the last one he saw.

In his prior startup, he went through the painstaking process of becoming SOC2 certified. This experience stuck with him - so much so, that when he and his co-founder ventured out to start something new, they decided to create something to make this easier.

This is the creation story of Sprinto.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S6 Bonus: Austin Parker, Lightstep

Austin Parker started out at a young age with computers, writing programs in BASIC and hanging out on bulletin boards. Prior to his tech career, he held many other jobs - as a short order cook, waiting tables, and taking tickets at a theater. When he stepped into this industry, he started out in test automation, followed by getting involved in open source communities, which is how he got into Developer Relations. What he likes about this arena is that DevRel is taking your companies story of a product, and making it harmonize with what everyone else is singing in the market. He has a young family, which occupies most of his time these days. But he likes to do photography, tinkering with electronics, and building model aircraft. Back in the day, he experienced the glory days of Radio Shack where you could grab electronic components on a whim.

Austin Parker has been at his current company for 4 years, right after stealth mode ended. He has helped enable the company to support developers through their innovative tech stack, built by industry experts.

This is Austin's creation story of Lightstep.
