InterlifeTM. The Internet of Space. eSIM. MEID.

No, these are not terms plucked from a science fiction novel. Instead, they're the key concepts defining the future of security for the telecommunications supply chain. In this episode, host Kevin L. Jackson sits down with three technology pioneers, Dustin McIntire, Eric Adolphe and Joshua Pendrick, to discuss new approaches to establishing trust and provenance within a supply chain that is increasingly both digital and physical. As AI arrives at the edge, SIM cards become eSIM services, the Interlife overlays digital and physical spatial elements, and MEIDs acquire NFTs, both the private and public sector face exciting new prospects for tracking the entire lifecycle of products - with all the metadata they might need. Don't miss this chance to peek into the future of enhanced connectivity - and figure out why Burger King might just be our best philosophical guide along the way.

The advance of human capabilities has been led by people who were able to imagine things that were not possible and then muster the willpower to build them. That requires a combination of seeing the world a bit differently and being willing to take risks and push the limits to create something new.

Eric Adolphe, CEO of Forward Edge-AI, Inc., is a technology-savvy executive with over thirty years of success building high-growth firms focused on mission impact, revenue, and margin attainment, primarily in the national security sector. But he isn’t interested in technology for technology’s own sake. Instead, he believes that it has the potential to generate enormous benefits for all of humanity.

In this episode, Eric joins co-hosts Scott Luton and Kevin L. Jackson to talk about his passion for innovation and willingness to go where no man has gone before:

Eric’s opportunities to work first with NASA and now with the United States Space Force

Why innovators must dedicate themselves to building responsible and more inclusive AI capabilities than we have today

How AI is acting as an accelerant in manufacturing, making it possible to bring designs to market faster than ever before
