Summary

I just returned from the in Vegas. I hope you followed along on as I fought my way through 180,000 people to give you exclusive access to the 4,500 companies presenting their most cutting-edge products and ideas… I kick off today’s podcast with a macro view of the show.

Grab a pen… I go over the companies that’ll benefit most from these enormous trends—and tell you which ones to avoid.
