About this episode

Deap Ubhi discusses how AI is transforming the startup landscape and the challenges faced by first-time founders.

AI is making it easier than ever to start a business. Side hustles are turning into startups, and more first-time founders are launching companies without a technical background. But while AI is lowering barriers to entry, going from a great idea to a real company comes with challenges, questions about security, scaling, and managing costs often arise as companies grow. Here to share with us how founders are navigating all of this is Deap Ubhi, Global Head of Technology for Startups at Amazon Web Services. https://aws.amazon.com/startups/ Moments with Marianne Radio Show airs in the Southern California area on KMET1490AM & 98.1 FM, an ABC Talk News Radio Affiliate! https://www.kmet1490am.com Discover inspiring conversations with today's leading authors, celebrities, thought leaders, and change makers.
