Judge me by my Cover: Irish Food for the Soul

If books are food for the soul – bookstores and libraries are
great halls for feast. Reading not only helps us gain new
perspectives and expand our horizon, it also helps us take a
break from our ever-connected digital lives – where information
is constantly being pushed to us. Books allow us the luxury of
immersing ourselves in moments that go as far as our minds would
wander – and travel abroad without the physical burden of a
voyage. As J.K. Rowling said: “If you don’t like to read, you
haven’t found the right book.” 


This week, we have the pleasure of hosting Simon Cocking from
Irish Tech News. Theodora Lau and Arun Krishnakumar discuss
several aspects of the publication and Simon's favourite books in
this episode. Simon commands a global following within the
Blockchain industry, and is considered one of the top advisers in
this space. He also had a few thoughts on what went wrong with
the industry, and what needs to be done to get it back on track.


Simon shares his journeys at the Irish tech news, effects of
Brexit on the Irish tech community, and the rise of emergence
markets and its effect on readership at Irish tech news. 


We hope that you will enjoy our conversations with book lovers
and accomplished authors on FinTech, Innovation, Longevity,
Technology, and more.
