Summary Decentric Media Serves the Swelling Ranks Summary Decentric Media serves the swelling ranks of the decentralization culture by providing access to essential finance and tech news sourced from the inside. Decentric’s coverage of what is looming as one of the greatest leaps of advancement in civilization’s history is available via a live global 24/7 broadcast and on-demand app. The content, curated and co-created by and with prominent influencers and market-makers for the industry, is video-centric in nature complemented by additional non-video membership benefits. Decentric Media leverages all connected devices (iOS, Android, web) as well as OTT (Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV) and digital cable to deliver it to consumers. Whom Does Decentric Media Benefit? The transformation to a decentralized culture means reimagining every facet of how we conduct commerce and our everyday lives. The fore of our intentions become efficiency, automation, and the service of humanity. Decentric enables and fosters the conversation necessary to build a regenerative, sustainable, and equitable society that seeks to balance resources, opportunity, and agency for the benefit of humankind. Why Decentric Media Matters Media coverage for blockchain technology lacks the powerful, authentic storytelling which can provide the insight and balance required for society to grasp its potential. As the herald for this burgeoning culture, Decentric will craft the tone for the traditional media outlets, regulators, and legislators that fulfill crucial roles needed for the expansion of decentralization. Legacy media’s dubious portrayal of this sector is as a bubble resultant from flights of fancy at best and as irresponsible and reckless at worst. However, its message comes from outside this novel realm. Decentric Media provides balanced messaging by collaborating with the decentralized community as well as the digital publications, event organizers, and technology solutions providers at the forefront of this cultural movement. Programming Strategy Decentric Media’s programming, live and on-demand and available 24/7, sources relevant market-makers from various sectors such as fintech, blockchain, cryptocurrency, alt chains, AI, IOT, cleantech, cybersecurity and regenerative global culture. We feature daily live news, specials available daily and weekly as well as live broadcasts of blockchain/crypto events spanning the globe. Our documentary-style storytelling spotlights the elements that comprise the blockchain/crypto culture. In depth interviews with luminaries; entrepreneurial round tables; ICO pitch sessions; lectures, panel discussions; beginner strategies; fraud alerts; breaking news; and real-time market data trading provide the content to acculturate people to the coming reality of decentralization.

Any uses made within it of the works of any other author, in any form, are properly acknowledged at their point of use and correctly referenced. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My most sincere love to my parents, who have always trusted and supported me in whichever path I decided to take. I am extremely thankful to Prof. Dennis Paul, who has always motivated and deeply encouraged me to be more “hands-on” with Design, more attentive to the “nitty-gritty” details of things, and opened my eyes to a field that I never imagined I would enjoy experimenting with. This profound change in my perspective of the Design discipline is priceless. I also owe my deepest gratitude to Petra Klusmeyer who, on the other hand, has always reminded me to reflect upon things and thoughts, to constantly evaluate the power written words may have, pushing me harder in order to make my writing better.

  • The MBA Program for Retired NFL Players: Newsmakers: GQ
    4/29/13 The MBA Program for Retired NFL Players: Newsmakers: GQ Newsmakers Show Yourself the Money You'd think it would be hard to go broke on $1.1 million a year, which is what the average NFL player pulls down. The trouble is, the average NFL player retires in three-and-a-half years, and most blow through their retirement savings in less than ten. Which is why there's now an MBA program with one goal: to take these men from signing contracts to writing them B Y B E N AU S T E N April 2013 We've heard a lot about the dangers football players face on the field—the damage to body and brain that comes from driving your skull into an armored opponent hundreds of times a season. But there's another malady afflicting the NFL, playing out beyond the gaze of the cameras and the crowds. A 2010 report produced by a Dallas investment house found that aside from the richest of the rich, among the remaining 90 percent of NFL players, nine in ten of them would be insolvent within ten years of retirement. If that figure seems inconceivably high, consider that even at half that rate, the league is facing an epidemic. Pro football careers last on average just 3.5 years, most ending all of a sudden with an on-field injury, the athletes earning millions one moment and nothing the next. Before and after retirement, all too many of them are throwing their money at risky ventures, burning through their earnings, turning themselves into bright, barn-sized marks for any underhanded scammer or well-meaning bumbler.
