The Front Row and The Balcony
I had a realization yesterday that hit me with the force of a revelation. It started with a scene from a new hit TV series, watching the protagonist seek an unfiltered truth about what her closest family thought of her life’s work.

The New Digital - A Tech Renaissance Unlocked by Blockchain and AI
Our current digital realm is being reshaped by two huge technologies redefining how we interact, transact, and innovate online.

While both blockchain and AI are positioned ...
