Can solving the "ick" factor in VR uplift the whole spatial computing industry? New on The Tech Glow Up, Amy Hedrick, CEO of Cleanbox Technology shares she isn't selling a cleaning box. She is solving the hygiene problem that unlocks VR at scale. Listen where you get podcasts.

"Hat rack" might sound odd, but it's a great compliment if you think about it.It means someone trusts you with real problems and makes their life easier. A GTM leader said it after we helped his team move like a startup—fast, testing, learning, scaling.

Rather than deploying generic large language models, emtelligent developed proprietary models optimized for clinical data extraction. This differentiation addresses scaling, cost, and accuracy challenges that LLM-based approaches struggle with when processing billions of clinical documents.

Most healthcare AI companies grabbed the LLM toolkit. Tim O'Connell at emtelligent built something different. They created custom language models specifically for clinical data extraction from billions of documents. Why? LLMs have cost, scaling, and accuracy problems with massive datasets.

Relying on stress hormones like cortisol might seem effective for productivity, but it actually stifles creativity and potential. Your brain can't think strategically or creatively when you're in fight or flight mode. That's why I encourage teams to focus on doing less to scale faster.

If you think telecom is just cables, think again. Infrastructure could be a really sexy business. If you know how to frame the story. And that means Nokia is betting on XR, robots & AI! Leslie Shannon reveals Nokia’s bold play to keep infrastructure agile for new industries.

Teams that launch more, learn and grow faster. The one metric I need to learn everything there is about the health of your GTM org? It’s launch velocity—how often you actually launch bold new campaigns. More launches means more shots on goal, faster learning, and faster wins
