Episode Synopsis

In this week’s Watson Weekly, we will discuss Fidji Simo is out at Instacart CEO to join OpenAI.  This is a huge feather in Simo’s cap and leaves an opening at Instacart which I predict will be filled by their Chief Product Officer Daniel Danker. Not only did Danker and Simo overlap from their time at Facebook, but Danker was promoted by Simo into his current role as Chief Product Officer.  You’ll find this and other stories every Monday morning on the Watson Weekly, headed straight to your earhole wherever you get your favorite podcasts.Today on our show:Shopify Needs Incentive Alignment to Win in Enterprise3 Notables From BigCommerce earnings callInstacart CEO Departs for OpenAIShopify Reports Solid Earnings Amid Global Uncertainty- and finally, The Investor Minute which contains 5 items this week from the world of venture capital, acquisitions, and IPOs.Today's episode is sponsored by Mirakl.https://www.rmwcommerce.com/ecommerce-podcast-watsonweeklyThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp
