Glen Henry is the Founder and Project Director of Sprite Wrench Studios . A micro games development studio based in Kingston, Jamaica. As the "loudest Member" of the Jamaica Game Developer Society (JGDS) , he uses his experience to nurture and encourage the growth of the region's Game Development sector. In this episode Glen shares why he is hesitant about Blockchain and some of the misgivings he has specifically as a gaming insider. It's not that he isn't excited about new technology, and he's not dismissing web 3 outright, but he's just not impressed with the current state of the space and believes there already exists better, more sustainable ways for gamers and creatives to earn.

Nicholas is a tech protege who has been innovating in tech locally and on an international level since his early teens. With his latest projects Nicholas has turned his attention to blockchain technology lending that innovative spirit towards creating workable solutions that marries traditional processes with high tech systems to improve on these processes. In this conversation Nicholas talks about some of these projects as well as share his thoughts on the inevitability of blockchain and applications like crypto and also why he thinks politicking is the reason behind the obvious apprehension to adopt this technology.

Donald Porter, is a World class Blockchain developer, Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) expert and Crypto enthusiast.

I invited Donald to share some of those ideas, and in particular ways in which Blockchain technology can be used to address localized and perennial problems within our governance systems. He is a passionate advocate with a thousand ideas and we would do well to ensure that type of knowledge, ambition and willingness is put to good use locally.

51:45

On this episode of the Digital Jamaica Podcast I had an illuminating conversation with David Palmer, Blockchain Lead for IoT at Vodafone Business a British based multinational telecommunications company. David and I connected on LinkedIn because of our shared interest in preparing young Jamaicans for the Future of Work. David firmly believes that there are a lot of opportunities in the web 3 space that can bring social mobility, career opportunities and wider productivity to young Jamaicans. David wants to expand our imagination as to what the future of work can look like, it’s not just about being employable, but thinks that young people should not have to be dependent on fan employer but rather by harnessing the potential of web3 technologies like blockchain, NFTs and the emerging metaverse young professionals can create opportunities for themselves. Enterprising young people in Jamaica with innovative business ideas can collaborate globally by forming digital identities, virtual bank accounts and pooling wallets to create a virtual business and bank account which can be used for one or more business transactions. This is just one of the ways David feels web 3 technologies can be used for good.

Where The Money Resides With Kalilah Reynolds 55:05

55:05

Kalilah had a hunch that the time was right to start talking about financial literacy. After all as an award winning journalist she had access to esoteric information and the privilege of being able to attract people the know to her platform. What's more she quickly realized that she did not need the permission of traditional media gate-keepers to broadcast, or to earn and that where the money truly resided was in building her own brand and platform. And so despite having a toddler, being on her 3rd pregnancy, contracting Covid and no longer having the 'safety' net of a successful job, Kalilah Reynolds decided to jump into her passion of bringing financial literacy to the masses. The reward for standing in her conviction? 26 million dollars in revenue in under a year. Find out more about Kalilah Reynolds media here ...

Dr. Camir Ricketts : How Early Exposure, Parental & Community Support Paved The Way To Success 51:04

4 years yang lalu51:04

51:04

Just this past Wednesday Dr. Camir Ricketts graduated from the Weill Cornell School of Medicine with a PhD in Computational Biology. It was a bittersweet occasion, on the one hand after almost 26 years of continuous formal education he is finally done, having successfully attained his goal. But, on the other hand neither his parents, teachers nor friends was there in person to see him walk across the stage. In fact there wasn't even a stage. Despite the gloomy circumstances the outpouring of love for him, excitement for his accomplishment and support for his future was still palpable even over the internet. Sure, this monumental achievement was all his doing but no doubt Camir's success is very much a community effort. It takes a village and for Camir his was an expansive community that included parents, teachers, friends and even on occasion strangers all of whom from a young age encouraged his curiosity and nurtured his ambitions. In many ways his success is also theirs and in other ways it's ours. Dr. Ricketts is a product of this Jamaican village and we all should celebrate him and be proud, but we should also be sad that not every Jamaican child had or have that foundation. Happily, Camir through his Minds Of Foundation is working to change that, providing opportunities to young people who may not have a community but will have his support.

Bias in TechCrunch Reporting on JamCovid? Data Privacy Attorney, Samantha Simms shares her concerns. 1:35:47

4 years yang lalu1:35:47

1:35:47

On today's show we're still talking about JamCovid except this time looking at how the story was reported and asking the question was there bias? At first the reporting was standard but some started to question the motivations of TechCrunch, specifically Zack Whittaker who seem to have taken a personal interest in exposing every flaw and in great details. Data Privacy, Tech & Intellectual Property Attorney Samantha Simms, was one person who openly questioned the reporting asking why, out of all the Covid data collection systems was this one compromised and reported on so aggressively? Samantha knows all too well how these scenarios play out since she is often the attorney that gets called in to manage the fall out of a data breach. And as you'll hear this is not at all how these things are usually reported. It's a very interesting conversation and one that made me question whether I was too quick to dismiss the suspicions. It's not as if Jamaica hasn't been the target of vicious reporting in the past and nobody I've spoken thinks the government handled it well but given the barrage maybe in retrospect their response wasn't so terrible??? Let's hear what Samantha has to say about it. Watch the full conversating on YouTube.
