Description
Tech guru and veteran CNBC and Bloomberg journalist Eric Chemi takes on modern business and what it takes to break through from a journalist’s perspective.

From CEOs, founders and investors, to IT experts, luminaries, and other interesting sorts, Eric delivers straight talk in a relaxed “let’s have coffee” conversation that’s interesting, fast-paced, and fun.
