Denver is one of two finalists for the Medal of Honor Museum. No, not the video game
Denver or Arlington will be the home of the new Medal of Honor Museum. We’re rooting for Denver. Telluride is the best small town in America, but Steamboat Springs and Breck aren’t too bad either. Breaking news: Colorado’s new blockchain leader says there are ‘endless’ uses for blockchain in the government. Go figure. 5G is live in Denver, but you probably can’t use it. Women in tech is getting serious. A-LIGN comes to Denver in force. Ping Identity had a big week at Identiverse. Circadence is looking to gamify security training. Coalfire partners with Qualys. Telstra (big telco in Australia) invests in CyberGRX. And we replay last year’s interview with Rob Winter to honor his memory.

Boozy Benefits Did you know that until this week it was illegal to auction alcohol for charity? So all of those wine baskets and bottles of booze you won to help support the local PTA could have landed you in some hot water. Well, lucky for you, Governor Hickenlooper signed a law at the beginning of March to make this practice legal. I guess that means it is time to double down on charitable donations. Also, Amazon is opening a physical bookstore at Park Meadows. We have a couple stories on high school STEM education. RedCanary is wondering if we're going to see criminals move from ransomware to cryptocurrency miners as their primary methods for making money. Webroot is still having double digit growth. Automox has received $2M in funding and GTRI partners with Root9B

AOL Instant Messaging came out at the perfect time to be a huge part of my college and young adult life. If I had used it in the last decade I would definitely miss it leaving us. Also, aren't you supposed to play a LITTLE hard to get? Colorado legislators are not holding back telling Bezos that they want HQ2. ChannelAdvisor didn't get the red carpet, but they're coming to town anyway. Colorado accountants are building bots and collecting big data. Colorado makes the map of well funded security company hubs. Englewood's computers get pwned. One CEO is out and a new one is in at Secure64. Convercent has their big conference, and things are good for ethics companies in 2017. And Ping Identity speaks up about what makes for an effective CISO (hint- it's not about the undergraduate degree).

Denver Startup Week... and root9B back from the dead
Billionaires graced the stage at Denver Startup Week, and some more common folks as well. The Denver economy helps drive our nation, according to science. root9B is going to live another day, but not as a public company. CyberGRX is a Gazelle, which is a good thing. Sara Avery talks Women in Security. Webroot's new CEO talks Webroot. Alchemy Security is making noise in a good way, and Ping Identity wonders if SMS authentication is ever a good idea.

Based on last week's feedback, this week we've added a summary of interesting jobs we've seen posted.
As always, this week's episode is available on Soundcloud page here. But we're now also listed on iTunes and Google Play.
