However, for resort managers, disconnecting from technology is not an option if they want to provide a great guest experience. To ensure guest satisfaction, including catering to their preferences, reducing wait times, and improving services, resorts need to have a constant flow of data and reliable connectivity. Leading companies like Vail Resorts have adopted 5G technology to enhance both their customer-facing and internal services across all their properties, improving the overall guest experience.

5 SEP 2023 · Building blocks are a critical part of almost any private or corporate mission to reach success and scale. They let executives quickly assemble a foundation for the rest of their plans to be built on – but how are the actual building blocks getting built? Enter Avantor, who is using advancements in connectivity, data, and computing power to “set science in motion to create a better world”. Avantor’s tools enable more efficient, more collaborative, and in general more innovative ways for engineers to bring these critical life science and applied materials we so rely on to life. In this episode of The Restless Ones, I had the chance to sit down with Mike Wondrasch, Executive Vice President and CIO at Avantor, which is tasked with providing the foundational technologies behind the discovery, optimization, and manufacturing of the applied materials powering the world. Whether it’s an internal stakeholder or an end customer, Mike sees his role, alongside his CIO peers across various industries as the same – “Get roadblocks out of the way for the really smart people.” With a clear and connected path, The Restless Ones can build.See https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

25 JUL 2023 · For decades securing a corporate network was as simple as securing your home office. Global workforces, outside partners, and widespread mobile access have changed that challenge into a seemingly endless set of attack surfaces for CIOs to battle. Whether it’s a website, SAAS app, or a program running in a corporate data center, 5G is moving that tech and the networks they run on closer to the end user. Companies like Netskope are securing that path. In this episode of The Restless Ones, I had the chance to speak with Mike Anderson, CIO of Netskope, who is balancing the need for always-connected access with a zero-trust approach. Netskope customers depend on the company to be the gatekeeper to their networks, and the value that lies within. Mike’s approach to using an agile mindset when applying security is critical in an ever-changing environment where users are looking to access applications anytime from anywhere.See https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

11 JUL 2023 · Education has a dual challenge of not only keeping up with the scores of information and knowledge developed every day, it must also keep up with the changing ways we learn and consume content. Education is also too valuable of a tool to be isolated to the financially or geographically fortunate. Connected technologies, paired with 5G, are helping educators meet these challenges and offer students an opportunity for economic and social mobility. In this episode of The Restless Ones I had the pleasure to sit with two women helping advance education in the connected age: Dr. Amy Novak, President of St. Ambrose University, and Dr. Kiesha King, Senior National Education Administrator at T-Mobile for Education. They represent a growing trend of private-public partnerships that are necessary to push society to the next level. Dr. Novak has utilized a set of her restless peers, to create “a pilot of the willing” to develop the latest tools, lessons, and communities for higher learning. Partnering with Dr. King, and other education-focused leaders from the tech world brings access to the latest technologies, which in turn brings the power of knowledge to everyone, from the most flourishing of cities to the most remote broadband deserts.See https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
