58 min - Episode 0110: Disrupting VegasShow Notes
- Host: Dan Hugo
- Summary: Perhaps City as a Startup from the Downtown Project days was in this general area of thinking, but it is time to ask whether the people who consider themselves to be a part of the Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem, the Startup Scene if you like, are pointing any of their attention toward making a Better Greater Vegas, or at least pondering what that might mean. Let´s do some of that here.

28 min - Episode 0109: Cross-PollinationShow Notes
- Host: Dan Hugo
- Summary: We can talk about flowers, but really we are talking about groups of people within an ecosystem engaging with each other, learning from each other, and probably benefiting each other through these interactions. It is something that probably happens a lot, and could always happen more, and our Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem should make this an actual objective to enable and encourage…

33 min - Episode 0108: Startup Weekend and Ignite and WhatnotShow Notes
- Host: Dan Hugo
- Summary: The so-called Startup Scene in the Greater Vegas Area is strange. A lot of the scene, a term I do not care for, is centered on gatherings of aspirational entrepreneurs and innovators, and while there is nothing wrong with that, we should be wondering when the aspiration turns to action. In the mean time, about those gatherings…

33 min - Episode 0106: City as a ShowcaseShow Notes
- Host: Dan Hugo
- Summary: Being a Better Vegas is going to take a while, there are a lot of possibilities that will take time and some evolution, not to mention something of a culture shift. One thing the Greater Vegas region does have today is a lot of visitors and a lot of opportunity to connect them with innovation, why are we not doing that?

38 min - Episode 0104: Fermi Paradox LVShow Notes
- Host: Dan Hugo
- Summary: The Fermi Paradox suggests that while there would seem to be a high likelihood of extraterrestrial life existing somewhere else in the universe, there is remarkably little evidence of it. Suppose we apply this thinking to our Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem, we experience a lot of hype around this being a great innovation hub and whatnot, but where is everybody?

About Caffe Genius Impressarios
From the publisher's feed
Caffe Genius is all about thinking outside the box, from Experimental Meetup Colaboratories to Pitch Workout Rooms to the Genius Roundtable and more; the idea is to consider seriously the…
Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem (based in Greater Las Vegas… for now) and how we can measure and elevate it, and Impressarios can describe these and more with their stories. With deliberate spelling.
