2023 Tech Rewind

The

Nomad Futurist team has had a lot of great people on the podcast over the last

three and a half years, and a few personal experiences along the way as well.

In this episode, Nabeel and Phillip take the opportunity to recap the

first half of 2023, discuss future goals for the Foundation, and share some

insights on the industry.

 

The

duo takes a look back at their journey thus far and discusses a question they

get asked a lot: Why did they start this podcast?


 


Nabeel

shares:


“At the bottom of our hearts, it's

really a lot of passion to create awareness and leave this world a better place

than we've found it for the next generation.”


 


Phil

shares:


“I think it's also a vehicle for our

guests to share the kind of unspoken things that they've come across in their

journeys. It has provided a platform for people to take this kind of 30,000-foot

view of their own careers, of their own lives and find ways to articulate

things that they would not otherwise have been able to articulate - and what

we've learned in many of these cases has been profound.”

 


Educating

the younger generation is a main goal of the Foundation and an important topic

in this episode. Phil shares his view on what adults can do to aid in the next

generations success:

 


“We as a society, as a community, as

an industry and as parents can interject elements of our careers, elements of

what we do for a living into our kids' schooling, which would benefit not just

those kids, but the other kids in their class and the kids that come behind

them.”

 


According

to Nabeel, the real purpose of this podcast is to reach out to listeners who

will join the Foundation’s journey and be a change agent.


“We need everyone's help in spreading

the word, creating awareness and giving the next generation an opportunity to

be better than we are. Give them a career path, give them a reason to do good

things, I think that's really the core of the Foundation and what we are

striving for.”
