Jeff Bezos is Leaving as Amazon CEO - Live Breaking Update!
Jeff Bezos Steps Down:
Jeff Bezos, Amazon Founder and CEO, has announced he will be stepping in Q3 and AWS executive Andy Jassy will be taking over as CEO. Jeff Bezos, who started then online bookstore Amazon in 1994, will transition to executive chairman of Amazon’s board. Alex discusses Bezos stepping down after building Amazon for 27 years and celebrates Jeff's never ending drive to always be inventing, innovating, and pushing the limits on new business models. Moazed goes on to explain the importance of big tech succession moves fostering innovation and encourage risk taking while also keeping existing business operations running at peak levels.
Here’s the full letter from Jeff Bezos to Amazon employees:
Fellow Amazonians:
I’m excited to announce that this Q3 I’ll transition to Executive Chair of the Amazon Board and Andy Jassy will become CEO. In the Exec Chair role, I intend to focus my energies and attention on new products and early initiatives. Andy is well known inside the company and has been at Amazon almost as long as I have. He will be an outstanding leader, and he has my full confidence.
This journey began some 27 years ago. Amazon was only an idea, and it had no name. The question I was asked most frequently at that time was, “What’s the internet?” Blessedly, I haven’t had to explain that in a long while.
Today, we employ 1.3 million talented, dedicated people, serve hundreds of millions of customers and businesses, and are widely recognized as one of the most successful companies in the world.
How did that happen? Invention. Invention is the root of our success. We’ve done crazy things together, and then made them normal. We pioneered customer reviews, 1-Click, personalized recommendations, Prime’s insanely-fast shipping, Just Walk Out shopping, the Climate Pledge, Kindle, Alexa, marketplace, infrastructure cloud computing, Career Choice, and much more. If you get it right, a few years after a surprising invention, the new thing has become normal. People yawn. And that yawn is the greatest compliment an inventor can receive.
I don’t know of another company with an invention track record as good as Amazon’s, and I believe we are at our most inventive right now. I hope you are as proud of our inventiveness as I am. I think you should be.
As Amazon became large, we decided to use our scale and scope to lead on important social issues. Two high-impact examples: our $15 minimum wage and the Climate Pledge. In both cases, we staked out leadership positions and then asked others to come along with us. In both cases, it’s working. Other large companies are coming our way. I hope you’re proud of that as well.
I find my work meaningful and fun. I get to work with the smartest, most talented, most ingenious t

CASHI
cashierless-store-nyc-airport-shops
Earlier this week, airport hospitality group OTG announced they will be the first company to license Amazon Go's Just Walk Out technology. The first location to implement the cashierless technology will be the CIBO Express Gourmet Market inside Newark Liberty’s Terminal C. The location is expected to be operational March 16, 2020, and OTG plans to follow integrating the technology into other NYC airport locations. Alex and Nick take a look at Amazon's new Just Walk Out website and talk about why this signals the beginning of a huge shift for retail.
Airport retailer OTG will use Amazon’s cashierless technology starting next week: https://techcrunch.com/2020/03/11/airport-retailer-otg-will-use-amazons-cashierless-technology-starting-next-week/

WINNE
winner-take-all-198-fed-hikes-rates,
The episode starts with a look at the European Union banning Russian media from spreading on the web. While I've supported businesses right to cease business with Russia, I think an outright ban on information is a more complicated issue. Next, discussion on the SEC asking for more information from Chinese companies and some signs that the tech crackdown from Chinese regulators may be easing. We end the episode with a look at the FED announcing they will raise interest rates by 25 basis points.

MY PR
my-problem-w-expensify-s-2020-election
Expensify CEO David Barrett recently made the decision to send a political email out to all 10 million of Expensify's customers. The email urged the entirety of Expensify's customer base to vote for Democratic candidate Joe Biden in order to avoid voting against democracy and inciting an eventual civil war. Alex discusses recent happenings involving companies choosing to speak out on political issues and breaks down why he thinks it can be a bad move for a company to take a polarizing stance like this.
