2025/04/08

Show NotesHost: Dan HugoSummary: Whether a civic volunteer organization such as ours, or any activity to which you commit your volunteer time, effort, and expertise, there is something different about working in something other than a workplace that brings with it norms and expectations. Do they translate to the world of volunteer initiatives? Well…LinksInnovate for Vegas Foundation https://innovateforvegas.orgProject-ACT.info https://project-act.infoAgileForVolunteers.org

2025/04/01

Show NotesHost: Dan HugoSummary: It has been a while since we touched on our community elevation initiatives that are pure outreach. That is, these are initiatives that will launch as part of Innovate for Vegas Foundation, maybe drive some donations, and if all goes to plan, offer some utility to our local communities. So let´s talk about initiatives like talks.LinksInnovate for Vegas Foundation https://innovateforvegas.orgProject-ACT.info https://project-act.infoAgileForVolunteers.org

Show NotesHost: Dan HugoSummary: Why on earth would we add yet more initiatives to our already-full plate?

2025/03/04

Show NotesHost: Dan HugoSummary: These are interesting times, no doubt about it, and while there is a lot of news to follow in the world, one of our core tenets is to focus on community elevation, thinking and acting locally through ideation, innovation, and implementation.

Show NotesHost: Dan HugoSummary: We find ourselves in interesting times of late, and while some of the chaos taking place at the federal level is concerning, we are very specifically thinking locally, and maybe it is time you do as well, and then act locally. Not only is there an opportunity to develop skills for yourself and peers, but Initiatives designed to elevate communities are a net positive and a great way to spend your time, no coding required!LinksInnovate for Vegas Foundation

Episode 0104: We Need Open Government

Let’s Innovate for Vegas ·

2025/02/12

Show NotesHost: Dan HugoSummary: The news of late includes many mentions of recent findings at the level of the Federal Government concerning foreign aid and science and maybe education and emergency management and the list goes on. Some of the confusion, or lack of clear understanding, may be due to the notion that the federal government has been hiding data, hiding errors, corruption, fraud, and so on… suppose these pieces of data, billions of them or more, were visible to the public?

2025/02/05

Show NotesHost: Dan Hugo Summary: For an organization such as ours which hopes to collaborate with volunteers on a somewhat chaotic basis, it makes sense to have everything written down so that someone who works on an initiative for a few hours each month can locate information and work with others using the same information. It is the reading part that can be a challenge. Stay tuned for an AI-generated segment at the end, an automated discussion of our Contributing document! Links Innovate for

2025/01/28

Show NotesHost: Dan Hugo Summary: DEI is making headlines, some are sticking with it, some are tossing it out, it is simple and complicated. Our Foundation has always taken a scaled-down approach, making Inclusivity, Diversity, and Accessibility our goals, and we will continue to do that, but what does that mean? Let´s talk about it.

2025/01/22

Show NotesHost: Dan Hugo Summary: Our episode number this week looks like the binary representation of the decimal number 5, and this nybble reminds me of a visit to Bits and Atoms at MIT a few years ago, where I met with Neil Gernshenfeld and took a look at their facilities and their program, and it is something that should be emulated everywhere, especially here in the Greater Vegas area, the FabLab model that endeavors to enable innovation and implementation whether it´s bits, atoms, or

Episode 0100: Innovate FOR vs IN Vegas

Let’s Innovate for Vegas ·

2025/01/14

Show NotesHost: Dan Hugo Summary: The Greater Vegas area is a strange mix of cultures and possibilities, some of which may be wagered on. Our Foundation began reaching out beyond our locality to engage those in other places interested in community elevation and civic volunteerism over one year ago, and it was at CES 2025 where there was some leaning-in.

2025/01/07

Show NotesHost: Dan Hugo Summary: Any organization doing anything needs to have some way of informing those joining in how things work, how people work together, and so on. No more true than with an volunteer organization, especially one such as ours intending to deliver ideation and innovation in the form of implementation to elevate our communities.

Episode 0096: Sprints vs Marathons

Let’s Innovate for Vegas ·

2024/12/17

Show Notes Host: Dan Hugo Summary: There are pros and cons being a nonprofit upstart in the innovation space. One thing that is a bit of both, is a general lack of market forces driving releases of early initiative efforts. That is, we have no ship dates for our initiatives, so no rush, but also, no rush.
