"If An Idea Does Not Sound Absurd, Then There’s No Hope For It" - Albert Einstein

Today we got to hear from two amazing speakers Christianna Taylor founder of Intelligent Space and Tom Krcha founder of Adobe XD. Christianna taught us enormous amount about artificial intelligence and how it will be used in space. What a crazy an idea to think about how we are going reuse space parts and sell them on a market place. Tom gave us a personal demo of the Adobe XD and told us the story of how he created this tool. He also gave us invaluable advice on what it’s like to be a dream chaser.

My favorite theme of the day was 100x. Like Einstein said if your idea is big enough people are going to question you and that’s a good sign you are on the right track. Tom had a crazy idea for an Adobe product and Christianna had a dream to fix the issues of Space Junk. Both of them like all other entrepreneurs, they faced tons of people questioning commons and concerns but they overcame those hurtles.

Think bigger, come up with big ideas and then show them to people who questioned you when you are at the top.

Cheers,
