1305 - Finding Happiness with Drisit's Alex Bäcker

On today's episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, we are so excited to speak with the cofounder and CEO of Drisit.com and author of 101 Clues on How to Live a Happy Life, Alex Bäcker! Drislit is a platform that allows drones to be driven through one’s cellular device anywhere in the world. This can also allow for a drone owner to allow anyone to use their device and make a profit on it.  Alex discusses a way to see anywhere in the world and how Drisit meets the need for that. Drones today are connected to a remote control and with Drisit drones can be navigated through the internet. He discusses construction projects and crops and the benefits of being able to visually monitor them on demand in real-time. He talks about security, filmmaking, infrastructure monitoring, and all the variety of ways Drisit can serve remotely. Alex emphasizes the flexibility that remote drones offer when the driver of the drone no longer needs to be tethered to utilize its functions. Don’t forget to listen to our next episode, where we recap all the great insights that Alex Bäcker offered!  Key Points from the Episode:Online drone navigation in real time Security access to dronesSharing drones to create a positive impact About Alex Bäcker: As an inventor, I invented Drisit, remote mobile queueing, evolutionary marketing, & a semantic search engine that beat Google 3:1 in the relevance of people search results, among many other inventions.

My writings have been published in the New York Times & the LA Times. As a consultant, I help boards be more effective, and help private and public organizations innovate more and better.

I am always looking to work with the best and brightest entrepreneurs, particularly software engineers.
