Here's the second half of the interview with Scott Wharton, VP & General Manager, Video Collaboration Group at Logitech.

This week’s Excession Events Podcast is my indepth interview with Scott Wharton, VP and General Manager of the Logitech for Business division of Logitech. Our conversation is extremely wide ranging. As a result I decided to split the Podcast into two pieces. One out today, and the other in a few weeks. There was the additional reason that the second half of the interview Scott talks about some exciting new products which are not released as yet. Much as I would have liked to spill the beans I will wait until early February to let you hear Scott’s thoughts on these. In the Podcast we discuss technology, the UC space, Artificial Intelligence, the F-35 fighter and scaring people at dinner parties. We also discuss Scott’s thoughts on the existing Video Conferencing market, the divestiture of Lifesize by Logitech, the growth of the Cloud providers, and his vision for empowering clients to fill the 50m meeting rooms Globally that have no Video capabilities at all. The Scott Wharton Interview on the Excession Events Podcast About the Author: Simon Dudley Simon is a contrarian. He makes a habit of being the guy who questions the orthodoxy, the guy who doesn’t believe it just because the good and the great said it’s true. This has not always been good for his ascent up the corporate greasy pole. However it’s been very good for his employers if they are prepared to listen. The Book The End of Certainty "How to thrive when playing by the rules is a losing strategy" explains why groupthink and the doing what you’ve always done is no longer the right move.
