November 15, 2024Episode 0090: Innovate vs Import
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Keeping it simple this week ahead of GEW and F1 and who knows what else happening here in Vegas. If Southern Nevada is to contain The Next Silicon Valley, why is all of the hype around convincing big companies to move here and celebrating the big companies already here? Hint: Impatience for wins.

November 09, 2024Episode 0089: Civic Startups
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Interesting times ahead, no matter how you feel about our incoming administration and associated changes in the Congress, and changes you may experience closer to home at local levels. One of my favorite sayings may offer a starting point for some ideation and innovation, so let us get that conversation started with a monologue.

October 25, 2024Episode 0087: Detritus
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Not specifically trash, but a few items that are in the bin, that I don´t really want to talk about so much for a while, because frankly they are getting old and tired, and our Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem needs not only new energy, but new optimism, and these don´t come from meetups… they also don´t get much media coverage!

Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Another Friday, rarely the end of the week for someone pursuing an entrepreneurial endeavor. Have you ever asked yourself if this is all worth it, if working for someone else might make more sense? If you haven´t, you´re doing it wrong. There must, though, be a reason you began this journey…

October 11, 2024Episode 0085: Vegas as The Next… Vegas
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: There is talk, on this very audio program in previous episodes of a Greater Vegas rise as The Next Silicon Valley, and at the same time, Hollywood 2.0, while maintaining its leadership as a Destination City with its trademark(-pending) Fun Economy, and there is almost certainly more. Will all of this work out, and if so how? If not, what might be, Plan B?

October 04, 2024Episode 0084: Dumb City
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Smart Cities are supposed to be a thing in these modern times, though what makes a Smart City may be up for some debate. At the very least, people plus infrastructure is the makings of a Smart City, so what happens when the infrastructure, which people often grow to need and depend upon, goes away?

September 27, 2024Episode 0083: Plenty of Opportunity
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Another loop of racing fast approaches and Nevada, already not ranking high with regard to Education, is having some issues, and casino winnings took a dip. This is not what today´s episode is about, but these are things to consider when we ponder Opportunity in Greater Vegas.
