Welcome to 2023! To kick off the new year, Digital Strategist and Web3 Lead at MillerKnoll, Chris Coleman joins the gang. Chris Coleman is a collector of things - physical and digital - and is bringing that passion to his role with one of the largest players in the A&D industry. Tune in as Chris shares some efforts MillerKnoll is focusing on, his independent Web3 work with Spritely, and why he believes “there are no Web3 experts”.  Then the BTE gang wraps things up with a few New Year’s resolutions… kind of.
