Does tech make things better? That’s the question (and the challenge) we posed on this podcast at the start of 2017. Today, we look at news stories on various sides of that question, as we discuss problems tech wants to solve (IPOs, OTA software updates for natural disaster relief), and tech problems we want solved (like not getting harassed on the Internet).
Tune in as CanCon’s podcast crew – Erin Bury, Managing Director of Eighty-Eight, Rob Kenedi, TWG’s General Manager in New York and host of the amazing #smallrooms podcast, Patrick O’Rourke, MobileSyrup Senior Editor, and Douglas Soltys, BetaKit Editor in Chief – talks problem-solving before riffing on the new Apple hardware.
Have some hot takes on the topics that we covered? Maybe you want to suggest something for a future podcast! Perhaps you have a burning question about something you read in tech news that we didn’t cover. Email us, post a comment below with the answer or question, or better yet, rate CanCon 5-stars on iTunes and post your thoughts there.
