Where do you live, 2019!? Such was the typically hilarious response from a friend in Silicon Valley when I recommended a podcast “for his commute”. From Google employees like him to accountants to lawyers, to economic development professionals to psychologists, if it is possible to work remotely, COVID has pushed entire industries to do so.

Being new to the role as the APEX Regional Innovation Network (RIN) Coordinator, a co-worker asked for my bio. He wanted to introduce me and show how my experience and qualifications relate to helping tech and knowledge-based companies. While I appreciate the kind sentiment, I have been involved with the RIN for almost 10 years now and it has never been about one person. It has always been about how the network can help companies start, grow, and innovate.
