While giants like AWS, Google, and Azure dominate the cloud, Heinrich and his team at 0G Labs are building something radically different: an AI operating system that puts power back in the hands of the people.But here's the catch: How do you convince enterprise leaders to abandon their comfortable cloud setups? How do you avoid the Web3 hype trap? And most importantly, can you actually make money while democratizing AI?Get ready for a brutally honest discussion about the collision between Silicon Valley idealism and business reality.About Michael HeinrichMichael Heinrich isn't your typical crypto founder chasing quick wins. As Co-Founder & CEO of 0G Labs, this Stanford graduate brings serious credentials to the decentralized AI industry. Previously founding and leading Garten, Michael earned recognition as a Top 100 Entrepreneur of 2022, with his insights published everywhere from Harvard Business Review to Hacking Consciousness.Now, he's tackling what might be the most ambitious challenge in tech: building a Decentralized AI Operating System that can compete with trillion-dollar cloud providers while staying true to the vision of AI as a public good. 🔗 Connect with Michael:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mheinrichTwitter: https://x.com/michaelh_0g0G Labs: https://0g.ai/🧑🦰 About Kevin Riedl (Podcast host, left):- Managing Partner & Founder of Wavect GmbH (Dev Studio to hit PMF)- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/wsdt- Twitter: https://twitter.com/kevinriedl_eth- Threads: https://www.threads.net/@kevkevin_greenhat- Website: https://wavect.io📱 Building a project yourself?

With a background as a senior executive in traditional systems integration, Jerry understands what enterprises look for—compliance, scalability, and reliability. For him, Cardano’s unique approach to governance and digital identity is well-suited for government and enterprise applications, but the missing link has always been developer accessibility.At Apex, Jerry channels his expertise in bridging advanced blockchain solutions with real-world enterprise demands. The push to integrate EVM functionality into a Cardano-derived ecosystem, in his view, positions Apex as a top contender for delivering business-grade Web3 solutions.- Jerry's Twitter: https://x.com/Aces1974- Jerry's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerryfragiskatos🎤 Listen on YouTube: https://youtu.be/RvmOzKbmEbU🧑🦰 About Kevin Riedl (Podcast host, left):- Managing Partner & Founder of Wavect GmbH (Fractional Co-Founders)- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/wsdt- Twitter: https://twitter.com/kevinriedl_eth- Threads: https://www.threads.net/@kevkevin_greenhat- Website: https://wavect.io📱 Building a project yourself?
