Listen "Episode 14 - Booms, Busts, and Billionaires"
Episode Synopsis
It's the final episode of the season! There's no denying it: Seattle is a tech city. After Microsoft moved to the Pacific Northwest, the Seattle area became a hub for computer and internet tech start-ups in the 1990s. Some saw incredible success, while others just weren't able to survive. We'll be looking at the 90s-era and contemporary tech booms, and the effects that large companies like Amazon and Microsoft have had on Seattle. Plus, hear from special guest Naud Frijlink, Principal Design Manager at Microsoft, about what it's been like working in the sector across multiple decades and cities. Show notes and transcript available on our website.
