Big thanks to Emily Chang and the team at Bloomberg for having me on The Circuit. Huge honor and super fun to be on.
how on earth did he become ceo?? yeah he might have a decent background in tech but he just seems like a tour guide, nothing commanding about him
there is a level of depth missing in this interview, like the conversations cut off at points where you expect more information

Hi, do I need to have a team when I am applying or can I find my collaborators once there? Also, can I apply from the UK? Thanks

Great interview. How is it their fault that there aren't enough women though?
Outstanding interview — thank you, Emily
Big tech should focus on core tech that empowers small tech, not grab the market with evil monopoly power
should've invited Garry to Red Rock, dang.
