What I Learned From Kevin Sistram at Enster Gram

Over the last 10 years, we’ve seen an incredible amount of progress and innovation in harnessing large data sets. Social graphs, payments platforms, e-commerce - the world is becoming smarter, more efficient and more is becoming possible because of our ability to derive insights from data.

But innovation in the earth’s data has been nascent - today I talked to one of the most revered product leaders in Silicon Valley about how might we capture the world’s information and then the possibilities for it. Kevin Weil served as a Product Leader at Twitter, Instagram and was the co-founder of Libra, Facebook’s cryptocurrency. He recently moved to Planet as President of the organization.

Kevin and I talked about what’s possible when you map and image the entire world in real time.
