Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gsQ46iyG Bobby Bonett and Andrew Lane are live from NeoCon with a guest who’s lived the majority of last two decades at the intersection of design and technology, Canoa CEO and Co-founder, Federico Negro. A world-class storyteller, Fed takes the guys through his early startup ethos of “buildings equal data”, his time leading design through the explosive growth of WeWork and how a chair sitting beside a freeway changed everything and eventually led to the creation of Canoa.

Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gHFQEgzN Looking back and forward It’s a conversation wrapped in nostalgia when Bobby Bonett and Andrew Lane welcome Mancini Duffy’s William Mandara RA to the pod. From remembering childhood aspirations through to the aspirations of the present, the conversation is one focused on being authentic and being willing to try new things. Bill shares how he and partner Christian Giordano have re-thought their business at Mancini Duffy to transform the firm into a multi-disciplinary practice that lifts up intrapreneurs and embraces new tech and ways of thinking at every opportunity. As a bonus, this episode also features BTE’s first ever ‘hat day’ as well as – after months of talking AI – our first Skynet reference.
