In this episode of the Innovators and Investors Podcast, host Kristian Marquez sits down with Amar Bakshi, founder of Shared Studios and Noro, to explore how Amar’s visionary work is redefining human connection through immersive technology. Amar shares the evolution from his original art project, which connected strangers worldwide via life-size video portals installed in locations from New York to Tehran, refugee camps, and universities, to creating Noro’s cutting-edge video conferencing solutions that bridge the gap between virtual meetings and face-to-face interaction. They discuss the inspiration behind his projects, including his personal experiences as a journalist and his grandmother’s story of displacement, highlighting the emotional and cultural impact of authentic human connection. Amar explains the challenges of building a global network in complex political environments, the importance of community-led curation, and leveraging technology to enable deeper trust and collaboration beyond traditional video calls like Zoom. The conversation also covers insights into building company culture, navigating the transition from art to business, raising capital, and how AI and future tech innovations could enhance multilingual communication and intimacy in virtual settings. Amar closes by sharing lessons learned as a founder about balancing commitment with perspective and fostering inclusive, purpose-driven teams. This episode provides a thoughtful look at how technology can create meaningful, serendipitous human connections across borders and industries.

#247 – SURRENDER is NOT a 4 Letter Word

18 днів тому

SURRENDER is NOT a 4 Letter Word Whether times are good or bad, the toughest thing for human beings to do is surrender to the Lord, or anybody for that matter. People cling to their positions. But when you surrender to the Lord, the REWARDS are Heavenly! Surrender in all its simplicity is: Let Go and Let God. Listen to God, and do what he says. And watch everything fall into place.

PEACE, PEACE Pastor Peg Jesus loves us so much, he gave us his peace. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27 Now, there is a river of peace that runs through our souls. It is a gift God placed within us. As we stay our imagination on Jesus, we will not be troubled nor be afraid.

#245 – The Beauty of a Mother’s Love

7 weeks тому

—

The Beauty of a Mother’s Love Pastor Peg Proverbs 31:10-31 is an ode to women and mothers who follow God’s voice. Written in a very patriarchal society, God lays out how HE sees women, and it is quite eye-opening — even today. Our Father was the first feminist in the true sense of the word. And this truth goes all the way back to Genesis chapter 1. To the women who put God first in your lives: you are more valuable than rubies. God says so! Happy Mother’s Day.

Delayed Is NOT Denied Pastor Peg Just because we don’t see God’s promise come to pass instantaneously… DON’T GiVE UP! We need to have patience to hang in there until it is fulfilled. Just like Abraham, David, Joseph, Sarah, and many others in the Bible have exemplified. Here is some beautiful music to journal to, as you ponder the questions at the end.

#242 – Is Your Receiver Broken?

14 weeks тому

—

“Is Your Receiver Broken?” God is everywhere present and He wants to bless you ALL the time. You can compare His omnipresence to cell phone waves or frequencies that permeate the air. You can’t enjoy the ‘goodies’ those waves provide unless you have a cell phone and it’s turned on. Likewise, with God’s blessings. They are already “out there,” and when we turn our receiver on, we will receive His blessings in our lives . What a joyful journey to realize every blessing you will ever need is waiting for you to receive it – by faith.
