This week in Arizona we saw a merger between two drone data collection companies. The first is Skynetwest, which was based here in Chandler, joined forces with Mississippi-based Soaring Eagle Imaging to create Soaring Eagle Technologies. Another bit of news was that Arizona Commerce Authority announced the National Semiconductor Economic Roadmap (NSER), which will bring people from different sectors together to position the US as the leader in semiconductor manufacturing.
We also discuss Instagram's halt on its product for kids, privacy and what the Elizabeth Holmes trial says about Silicon Valley.
