Seek Impact Before Tech
This week T. is joined by Pulitzer Prize winner Bianca J. Jackson. Bianca J. Jackson is an award-winning entrepreneur and creative experience officer (CEO) of BrickRose Exchange where she creates multi-sensory events and experiences in the physical world and in the Metaverse (think SIMS and Roblox). Thus far the events have impacted 5,000 people around the globe in such places as Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa. With more than a decade in tech, digital marketing, and social impact, Bianca knows a thing or two about innovation. Her commitment to excellence has landed me on the stages of:
🎙️ SXSW
🎙️ Digital Summit Philadelphia
🎙️ Tech Inclusion NY
In her Metaverse Business Bytes newsletter, she shares how elements of the Metaverse are impacting life today and in the future; the newsletter has over 9K subscribers on LinkedIn. While working for USA Today several years ago, one of her Metaverse projects, The WallVR, won a Pulitzer Prize in 2018.
In this episode we explore why the importance of being intentional about the impact you want have, rather than chasing fads in tech.
