Опубликовано 26 октября 2017, 19:19

This week Brad drives around with one of Microsoft’s very best – the Executive Vice President of Business Development at Microsoft, Peggy Johnson. Peggy is responsible for all of Microsoft’s acquisitions, investments, and partnerships – and this role gives her unique insight into what Microsoft is planning for the future.

In part 1 of their discussion, Brad and Peggy talk about studying engineering and working on anti-submarine warfare, technology that is about to change the workplace (hint: it can already read Harry Potter), and what building a nuclear bomb and being a new hire at Microsoft have in common.

Peggy also talks about the work she’s doing in Silicon Valley, as well as great/not-great startup names.
