If Gartner has a market guide, edge computing must be a real thing for the enterprise. Or is it? We’ve brought Allyson Klein to episode 5 to help us understand what (if anything) enterprises are doing on the edge 

Our guest: Allyson Klein, Founder and Principal, TechArena

Allyson Klein’s insatiable curiosity for what inspires innovation drove her to found her first podcast over a decade ago. She has reached over ten million listeners and over one thousand interviews with the industry’s brightest stars.  

Allyson created the TechArena to shine a light on leading edge innovation featuring inspirational stories from the industry and under-recognized voices. She leverages over two decades in the tech sector with executive roles at companies including Intel and Micron to her work. She holds an MBA from Portland State University where she is now a professor in the business school and a bachelors in marketing and management of the University of Oregon. 

Allyson leads The Tech Arena from Portland, Oregon working with both tech titans and breakout stars.

Introduction  
How do you define edge?
Edge, AI, new chips - how does it all go together?
Why did we talk about AOL CDs and modems?
Will IT and business functions create tighter relationships to determine where the value for the business is?
What is the risk of not exploring new edge use cases?
Are companies looking at data as innovation?
What are the critical infrastructure innovations that have enabled the edge? CXL, Chiplets (the salad bar of silicone), etc.
How do we orchestrate the edge?
Will edge change refresh cycles?
Edge will lead to the era of distributed computing.
Will enterprise compute evolve to meet the more complex needs of edge and distributed computing?
We all win when technology is diffused.

As The Tech Aunties, we try to bring the “Tea” with every episode. This is the part of the episode where we try to bring some new insight or controversy into the conversation.  Find out what Allyson thinks about women breaking out of the stereotypical roles we've traditionally be assigned in tech, and will women be leading the innovations on the edge?

In many cultures, "Aunties" are known for their experience and insight. Angelia McFarland and Gina Rosenthal are marketing and technology industry veterans who are spilling the "tea" on the future of these critical areas. In each episode, they take a hard look at trends in marketing and technology and share their experience and insights. Not only will you learn something new each episode, the aunties will challenge you to think through the hype and develop a healthy understanding of the trends affecting your future. 

Seasons 1 & 2 are sponsored by EOP Media and Digital Sunshine Solutions and can be found at this link. Season 3 welcomes a new Tech Auntie, Marian Newsome, who will join Gina Rosenthal to discuss all things AI. Season 3 episodes can be found here.
