Nicole Glaros is a community builder like few others: as arguably the very first employee at Techstars, Nicole helped scale the accelerator from one program to over 50 and, simply put, is a legend in the early-stage startup community.

And not surprisingly so, Nicole has, amongst other notable achievements to numerous to fit in here: invested in more than 100 startups; co-founded the new professional women’s Soccer team in Denver; been recognised by publications like Business Insider, Marie Claire, and Entrepreneur Magazine; spoken at events like SXSW, TEDx, WebSummit, and Pioneers Festival; has been a competitive sportsperson and outdoor adventure guide; and has previously sat on the board of the Leeds school of Business and the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Denver Branch 😅

To say we were honoured and educated to have her as our guest is an understatement.

When technology changes, society changes. When technology changes quickly, society changes quickly. And you might have noticed, technology is changing very quickly indeed. As a result, it's getting very hard to predict what the world will look like in ten years' time. This is challenging for all of us, of course, but the group it will affect the most are often the least equipped to embrace those technologies: our kids. So in today's episode, we chat about technology in schools and how embracing AI could lead to an exponential increase in learning outcomes.
