The Agile Brand with Greg Kihlström®
“Software is eating the world.” That was written over 14 years ago, back in 2011 by Marc Andreesen, and it seems like that is growing more true every day. Today we’re going to talk about the increasingly digital nature of businesses - all businesses - as well as how the concept of composability, which has been applied effectively in the world of software, might just have applications well beyond technology infrastructure. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Chris Bach, Co-Founder of Netlify.

Welcome to Hit Rewind! In this episode, we explore a transformative period in film history often referred to as the "Bronze Age" of cinema. This era, largely spanning the 1970s, is marked by groundbreaking and innovative movies that pushed the boundaries of storytelling and representation.
