Our experiments continue here. At this juncture Robert and I may change the name from BendTech to BendTech Labs – well, more on that and our little incubator here later perhaps. That said, Robert and I are always discussing new ideas for BendTech and we’re actively trying to expand our technology communication and the “community”. So, without further adieu, we’d like to introduce you to the BendTech Podcast medium.
As with all things we’re experimenting with here, our first podcast is a little rough around the edges (you might will hear a bit of background noise). That said, for our first go-around, we were privileged to have Forrest Rodgers join us and, frankly, volunteer to be the test subject. For those of you who don’t know Forrest a bit of background. Forrest has over 20 years of experience in higher education and economic development throughout Oregon. Most recently, he was the Executive Director for the OSU-Cascades Foundation. And, prior to that, he was the Chief Executive Officer of the High Desert Museum for seven years. He has three wonderful daughters and is an active contributor to our Nancy P’s Saturday morning coffee’s.
In this podcast, we discuss our various perspectives on growing the technology ecosystem in Central Oregon. It very much ties in with a few of our recent blog posts and we believe you’ll find it timely and topical. We hope that you will find this new format engaging, informative, and a bit entertaining. If you have suggestions or comments, please do let us know. And, as Robert always likes to say…”It’s an experiment.” Enjoy the show!
