Welcome to the Innovation Calling Podcast!
This is the podcast where we'll feature today's top innovators who are revolutionizing their industries by utilizing technology.
Our mission is to connect those looking to be part of the next big thing with those companies who are already making it happen.
Peggy Dau of Mad Perspectives is on this week's podcast and we were excited to talk all things New Media and how television as we know it is transforming.
There is no industry that's exempt from the impact of innovation, and even TV is seeing the change in how people select their programming and consume content. Thanks to the creation of the smart phone along with data becoming more accessible, we’ve seen a major shift in this new phenomenon.
We talked about the shift in the way data is collected as we no longer have to make assumptions based on incomplete Neilson surveys. Now, thanks to tracking and big data, we can see first hand what customers are watching, in addition to how long they are watching it, where they are falling off, etc.
So how will TV as we know it, change? And how will the change as the data collected becomes more detailed and impactful and drives the content that we’re not curating?
We talked about all of this plus so much more.

We have seen so much change in the way we do every day business through innovation, yet when it comes to voting and polls, nothing has changed since, what feels like the 1800’s. This was even more apparent in our last presidential election, where we saw an entire nation stunned by the results, when they thought for sure (thanks to the polls) that the other candidate was going to win.
Jinson Jose looked at the results, and instead of just getting frustrated with the process, he decided to do something about it. At first, Wallet Poll was a way to have fun with polling results, but it has turned into something more.
In this conversation we talked about the inspiration to take on an archaic process, and how retailers and the public can get a better understanding of buying habits tied to polling results.

We may have taken the terms 3G and 4G for granted, not truly understanding the impact the addition of each one had to our lifestyles. However, as more devices ‘talk’ to each other and as the demand for data increases, the need for 5G is crucial now more than ever.
By 2020 the new information generated per second for every human being will approximately amount to 1.7 megabytes. Plus the average consumer will have more access to things like VR and IoT devices, which will make the speed of 4G feel like the old dial-up days of AOL.
As overwhelming as this all can be, the good news is that it 5G is no longer just a thought or a need, but it’s an actual reality. It’s already rolling out to areas around the world, and will be more accessible within the next year.
To learn how 5G will impact the world as we know it, and what we can expect in the near future, we decided to go straight to the 5G source, Ericsson.
We were honored to speak with Swamy Vasudevan, the VP of Strategy and Business Development for Ericsson. He has been instrumental in making 5G a reality.
Raj Daniels has made a name in the Dallas area through his consulting background, start-up ventures, and an extremely unique approach to networking.
After leaving his previous start-up, he has now ventured into working in the AI space from a strategic perspective and focusing how enterprise will adapt and adopt AI as part of their future business strategy.
In this episode of Innovation Calling we discussed AI and the impact it’s going to have across various industries, in addition to it’s impact on how we do every day business. We also switched over to mindfulness, and how a once over looked practice in corporations should be a centralized approach to move innovation forward.

Edward Marx has an incredible history from starting at humble beginnings to being the CIO of on the of world’s most sought after healthcare facility.
The Cleveland Clinic is on the forefront of utilizing technology to change the human experience with hospitals. From the treatment the patient receives, to their interaction with clinicians, and the continuing care far beyond leaving the hospital, technology is changing the way we stay healthy as a society.
In this episode we talk about Edward’s journey to the CIO of the Cleveland Clinic and how healthcare is being revolutionized by taking advantage of the advances in technology, from real-time patient monitoring to utilizing augmented reality for training, plus so much more.

Connected devices is changing the way we gather data, track information, and basically, live every day life, but in order to do so, it requires constant connection to do so. And as consumers, we are at the mercy of things like cellular, WiFi, and Bluetooth, which as we all know can be extremely limited in range.
Helium is solving this problem by creating a decentralized machine network that will allow machines anywhere in the world to connect to the Internet and geolocate themselves.
Frank Mong is the COO of Helium, and he joins us on this week’s episode of Innovation Calling to discuss more about how he got involved with the company, and how it’s going to help create an opportunity for everyone to take advantage of IoT.
How?
Well, the beauty of this technology is that not only will it make connecting devices easier, but it creates a two sided marketplace where the owners can capitalize by creating their own network (and getting paid via blockchain to allow others to connect).
We talked about how they are making this all possible and the impact that can have in how data is exchanged (and how we as consumers can finally be a part of it).
