113: Failure Is Not An Option!

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #113 where we have a chat about all things IoT over a cup of coffee or two with some of the industry's leading business minds, thought leaders and technologists in a totally unscripted, organic format. Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter. 

This week, we had special guest, Wienke Giezeman, CEO of The Things Network joining Andreea, Bill, and Leonard to discuss the culture of failure adoration, the role of fear in business and the virtue of courage of the inventor and the entrepreneur, the detriment of a speculative economy and mindset, and how changing the world and industries is super hard. Technology is not the answer, it is an enabler of the solution.
