Listen, to learn from Sam Herring, CEO & Co-Founder of Seattle-based ed tech leader Intrepid by VitalSource on how researching the individual stories of Wild West characters shaped a vision for educational tech achievement; why there really won’t be a Dr Evil with a pinkie in his mouth controlling the Learning software market; where the $40 billion that got invested in ed tech these past 20 years really went; why not a lot of the ‘thousand ed tech’ flower start-ups will ever probably bloom; why setting up a content library really isn’t all you gotta do to become a good CLO; why small-bore thinking sucks; and finally, wow, platform/services, LMS/LXP… is that still the right question if we drop a recession on it all?
