Episode 0x17 with Chris Carter

About this episode

The episode discusses SAP digital signage integration and the implications of treating ERP data as live input with Chris Carter.

Viktor Petersson and Daniel Mountcastle talk with Chris Carter, CEO and Chairman of Approyo, about SAP digital signage integration and what changes when ERP data is treated as a live input, not a static report. Chris explains why SAP became the operational backbone for large organizations, then they dig into the "last mile" problem: dashboards that exist but rarely get seen. They cover how screens can make data visible for deskless teams, from retail back rooms to manufacturing floors, and why that visibility can shift daily behavior. The conversation also touches security and AI. They look at the risks of moving sensitive business data into consumer AI tools, the importance of segmentation and hardened devices, and how edge-based execution can keep decisions fast while reducing exposure. If you're building with data, deploying devices at scale, or thinking about where AI fits, this episode is a practical map of the tradeoffs.
