Jeron Peoples: Strategy and the Indy Tech Ecosystem

December 5, 2023
SEP Podcast, Behind the Product Episode 47

Our guest is Jeron Peoples, he’s responsible for strategy at ARI and Sports Tech HQ. Wearing multiple hats within two organizations is fun and challenging. Our conversation focused on a few areas:

  • Context setting on what ARI and Sports Tech HQ are and where they focus
  • A deep dive on the Indy Tech Ecosystem
  • Jeron’s lens on some recent news in Indy and where he sees things headed

The most interesting part of conversation to me was his view on strategy. As someone who loves to learn and challenge my own thinking in this area, I really appreciated his candor and perspective. This conversation left me thinking a little differently for one of the hats I wear here at SEP.
