We’ve been talking a lot about technology and innovation lately. Many of you attended our Power Breakfast on artificial intelligence (see video at https://bit.ly/2GffRrE). Mike Colwell, the Greater Des Moines Partnership’s executive director of entrepreneurial initiatives, helped us collect our thoughts and come up with strong speakers for that event. As we were talking over coffee one morning, we asked what resources Cowell checks regularly to keep up with the news. Here are three of his key newsletter recommendations:

• O’Reilly Next Economy Newsletter (http://oreil.ly/1KgloFg).

• Clocking In. MIT looks at the workplace of the future (https://bit.ly/2EUpx7M).

• Exponential View (https://bit.ly/2pz5gNW).

Do you have recommendations for books, newsletters, podcasts and other resources we should share with readers? Email Managing Editor Perry Beeman, perrybeeman@bpcdm.com
