Listen "#9 - Harold Hughes: Proof of Experience, Blockchain, Collaboration, Entrepreneurship"
Episode Synopsis
We have a bad habit that we need to talk about. We tend to think that everybody has the same problems that we have. And every time we have a problem, we tend to go to the same places to find a solution. It's a bad habit for two reasons. First, we're limiting the kinds of solutions that we're going to get; and second, we're missing out on hearing from a lot of incredible problem solvers - people who would bring new and innovative perspectives if we took the time to find them and listen to them.This is one of the topics for discussion in this week's interview with Harold Hughes. Harold is a founder from a very different background than the typical ivy league, Silicon Valley scene, but his company, Bandwagon, is making no less of an impact. Bandwagon is an experience technology company using blockchain to authenticate experiences and bring communities of all kinds closer together.Bandwagon's Proof of Experience technology is an idea that could revolutionize the entertainment industry and possibly provide an easy solution to the problem of AI-fabricated news, but Harold isn't interested in talking about "disruption". Instead, he says collaboration is the way to move us forward and amplify the quieter voices in our community.When Harold isn't running Bandwagon, he's advocating for minority entrepreneurs and equipping a more diverse generation of solution providers. Our conversation was an encouragement to me. I hope you enjoy it.
