Episode summary:
It’s 2023 and after surviving a pandemic the world experienced two real truths we were never in charge and things are never going back to what they used to be. During our time in lock down using technology to take care of your everyday needs became almost essential. Children had to have access to the internet for school, if you could find something you needed you probably had to go and buy in on Amazon and if you wanted to talk to your relatives you might have to jump on Zoom. For those who were not ready the rise of technology felt forced upon them and they have begun to worry about what is all this data being used for?
In continuation of our data month of episodes we sat down with Jeff White, CEO of Gravy Analytics.
