We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

“The impact is now,” says Damon Finaldi, President of TeleCloud. “In under a year, this will become more commonplace in the telecom business.” In this episode of Technology Reseller News , Publisher Doug Green welcomes back Damon Finaldi of TeleCloud , a Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) member, for a live demonstration and deep dive into one of telecom’s most talked-about innovations: vCons (Virtual Conversations). TeleCloud, a New Jersey-based cloud service provider, has deep roots in direct client interaction across industries like healthcare, auto, legal, and service trades. That close engagement has led to a key insight: data, not just service, is the most valuable business asset —and vCons are the vehicle to unlock it. Powered by conversational AI, vCons capture and enrich business communications (calls, emails, texts), then deliver actionable insights through TeleCloud’s dashboard interface. Finaldi explains how this real-time analysis reveals call trends, sentiment, tone, and key phrases, offering triggers and alerts to preempt issues before they escalate. “We’re not just recording calls—we’re making the data useful,” Finaldi says. Through integration with vertical-specific applications, such as appointment systems for urgent care clinics, TeleCloud is enabling real-time business intelligence across customer interactions. Key takeaways from the podcast: vCons turn voice and text data into actionable insight with AI TeleCloud’s platform now delivers real-time sentiment and trend analysis Insights dashboards trigger alerts and stitch together multi-channel data Service providers must adopt this or risk losing relevance—and valuation The vCon format is being approved by the IETF as a global standard As AI adoption accelerates, TeleCloud is positioning itself not just as a cloud provider—but as a business intelligence partner. The future of telecom, Finaldi argues, lies in offering clients more than connectivity—it’s about delivering clarity. Learn more at: https://telecloud.net…

Julia Evans “We want people to ask these questions,” says Julia Evans, Group Operations Director at TXO. “This gives our customers and partners a real indication of what they’re actually doing in real time.” In a new episode of Technology Reseller News , Publisher Doug Green speaks with Julia Evans of TXO about a groundbreaking sustainability initiative: the TXO Carbon Calculator. Developed in partnership with the Carbon Trust, the calculator gives telecom operators and enterprises a powerful tool to measure the carbon savings of reusing, refurbishing, and recycling network equipment instead of buying new. TXO, a global technology lifecycle partner, helps service providers extend the life of their assets by decommissioning, repairing, reselling, and responsibly recycling telecom infrastructure. As Evans explains, with the continued move to the cloud and digital transformation accelerating, there’s a surge in decommissioned equipment—and a massive opportunity to manage it sustainably. The Carbon Calculator is now available through TXO’s iTrack portal and provides customers with validated, downloadable data on carbon savings. In some cases, using refurbished components rather than new ones can reduce emissions by up to 93%. Evans emphasized that the methodology is rigorous and backed by the Carbon Trust, ensuring customers can confidently use this data in sustainability reports and procurement planning. In a telecom environment where sustainability is becoming a key procurement driver, TXO’s offering stands out—not just for reducing emissions, but for making those savings measurable, reportable, and impactful. TXO is also expanding in North America following the acquisition of Airway Group, further growing its reach and ability to support circular economy practices globally.

“Got vCon? You will.” — Jeff Pulver In this special edition of the Technology Reseller News podcast, Publisher Doug Green sits down with Jeff Pulver, creator of the Pulver vCon Report and longtime voice of innovation in telecom, to explore what Pulver calls the “sleeper technology of 2025”: the vCon. A vCon , or virtualized conversation , is more than just a recording—it’s a standardized, structured file format that captures the full depth of business conversations across any channel, whether voice, video, email, or chat. Pulver describes it as “robot food for AI,” the foundational data businesses need to fuel next-generation automation, analytics, and compliance tools. “The moment the call ends is when the real magic starts,” says Pulver. With vCon, conversations become searchable, analyzable, and actionable. From real-time sales dashboards to AI-driven support insights, Pulver argues that vCon files are unlocking “organizational memory” in ways businesses have never seen. Pulver draws parallels between vCon today and SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) in its early days—both were initially niche innovations that became foundational. He also highlights the growing vCon ecosystem, noting that over 30 companies are already building with the standard, and invites others to get ahead by building their “vCon strategy.” Upcoming Events: Fall ‘25 VON: Evolution , September 15 in Washington, D.C. Fall ‘25 vCon Conference , October 21-23 in Dallas, TX Throughout the episode, Pulver emphasizes that vCon technology isn’t about hypothetical futures—it’s happening now , with real tools like conservers (e.g., conserver.io ) and protocols like SCITT (Supply Chain Integrity, Transparency, and Trust) shaping a trustworthy foundation for AI-powered enterprises. Whether you’re in telecom, compliance, support, or just managing a messy digital life, Pulver’s message is clear: “What’s your vCon strategy?” Subscribe to Jeff’s thoughts at thejeffpulver.substack.com Stay tuned to Technology Reseller News for more on the vCon revolution.…

“The problem is way bigger than people think… scams are now so good, even cybersecurity professionals fall for them.” — Dmitri Vellikok, VP of Embedded Security, F-Secure In this compelling Technology Reseller News podcast, publisher Doug Green speaks with Dmitri Vellikok, Vice President of Embedded Security at F-Secure, about the urgent need for cybersecurity resilience in an AI-driven threat landscape. With nearly four decades of experience in digital protection and a long-standing, behind-the-scenes role powering cybersecurity for major telcos, F-Secure is stepping up efforts to help service providers build networks that are not only secure—but resilient. Dmitri Vellikok The conversation dives deep into how AI is a double-edged sword: enabling advanced threat detection, but also fueling a new generation of sophisticated scams that are increasingly difficult to identify. Vellikok discusses findings from F-Secure’s recent global consumer security survey, which revealed that while 70% of users believe they can spot a scam, 43% have actually fallen victim—highlighting the growing disconnect between confidence and reality in the digital age. Vellikok emphasizes the critical role telecom operators can play in defending users. With access to rich behavioral and traffic data, service providers are uniquely positioned to identify and prevent threats in real time—especially as AI enables more targeted and scalable attacks. He outlines how F-Secure is working to empower these providers with predictive cybersecurity tools, including the concept of a “threat score” that can alert users when they’re most at risk. Importantly, the podcast also addresses the balance between robust security and seamless user experience. Consumers, Vellikok notes, don’t want tutorials or pop-ups—they just want problems to quietly go away. This insight is guiding F-Secure’s approach to embedded protection that works silently and effectively behind the scenes. As 5G continues to roll out globally, the conversation ends on an optimistic note: this new architecture not only enhances connectivity but offers new opportunities for layered, real-time security solutions tailored to tomorrow’s threats.

Jake walks us through how TELCLOUD ‘s white label program empowers resellers to launch fully branded POTS replacement services without the headaches—no heavy lifting, no upfront hardware costs, and no telecom experience needed. “Telecom might be complicated,” says Jacoby, “but we make it easy. Resellers can use our platform to deliver complete solutions—connectivity, equipment, install, support, even billing—under their brand.” And for those not ready to fully commit, TELCLOUD offers a tiered entry path . Whether you’re ready to become a full reseller or just want to earn commissions through agent partnerships, TELCLOUD has a model to fit your readiness—and your customers’ needs. Jacoby explains how TELCLOUD’s OPEX model and turnkey setup allow partners to begin earning revenue from day one , enabling anyone from seasoned MSPs to telecom newbies to enter the POTS replacement space with confidence. “Some MSPs don’t even do telecom—but they’re already in front of elevators, alarm systems, fire panels. They’re standing right in front of the POTS opportunity.” And of course, it wouldn’t be POTS and SHOTS without tequila. This week’s pour: Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco —unaged, uncut, and packed with flavor. “It’s strong, spicy, and pure—just like our message today,” says Jacoby.

1 From UCaaS to AI: Daan De Wever on Building the Next Chapter of Cloud Communications, Dstny Podcast
“You’re not building for today—you’re building the next, and the next after that.” — Daan De Wever, CEO & Co-founder, Dstny, “AI assistants are the biggest invention since the internet.” Dstny, is the official host of the 2025 CCA European Summit in Brussels, Belgium (June 16–17) In this podcast, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green interviews Daan De Wever , the CEO and co-founder of Dstny , who is also serving as the official host of the 2025 CCA European Summit in Brussels, Belgium (June 16–17). The conversation offers a preview of the summit’s content, speakers, and a candid discussion of the evolution—and future—of cloud communications in Europe. De Wever describes Dstny as a leading European cloud communications provider serving over 5 million users , with deep expertise in SMBs and global growth through Microsoft Teams integration. He shares why Brussels was chosen as the summit venue, calling it the true center of Europe—and an ideal location for a landmark gathering of cloud leaders. This year’s keynote speaker , Herman Van Rompuy , the first president of the European Council, will join a lineup of prominent voices including Times of London, Cavell, and Dave Michels. De Wever himself will deliver a keynote titled “The Entrepreneur’s Journey,” offering a transparent look at how Dstny built long-term value through disciplined strategy, authentic leadership, and true integration—not just financial “pileups.” “AI assistants are the biggest invention since the internet.” On AI, De Wever doesn’t mince words: “AI assistants are the biggest invention since the internet.” He argues that cloud providers must stop thinking of UCaaS as the final product—“It’s legacy”—and instead prepare for dramatic change. Dstny, he reveals, is already moving to integrate AI into their core platforms with patented technology aimed at faster innovation delivery. De Wever also offers a sober view on M&A in the sector: “Many companies are just stacking assets. But real builders think about story, integration, innovation, and the long-term customer value.” The conversation ends on a high note with a nod to hospitality: De Wever personally curated a private pre-summit dinner and will serve as the evening’s sommelier. “There will be no bad wines at the CCA Summit,” he jokes.

1 Beyond VoIP: Dave Dadds on Cloud 3.0 and the Future of Digital Transformation for European SMBs, VanillaIP – Uboss Podcast
“VoIP is table stakes. Now we’re in Cloud 3.0, where value comes from how you integrate and differentiate.” — Dave Dadds, CEO, VanillaIP & Uboss In this special Technology Reseller News podcast for the Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA), TR Publisher Doug Green speaks with David R. Dadds , CEO of VanillaIP and Uboss , about the evolving state of cloud communications—and why European SMBs must rethink digital transformation as they enter the AI-driven era of “Cloud 3.0.” Dadds, who will speak on the panel “European SMBs Digital Transformation Maturity Level and AI Adoption” at the CCA European Summit in Brussels (June 16–17, 2025), shares insight into VanillaIP’s journey and Uboss’ evolution from a service tool for BroadSoft providers into a full-fledged cloud enablement platform. “We’re not just supporting VoIP anymore,” says Dadds. “We’re enabling service providers to package Microsoft 365, Webex, Stripe billing, and more—instantly, at scale, with self-service models.” The conversation turns toward AI, where Dadds emphasizes that “the opportunity is real, it’s here, and it’s accessible.” He highlights sentiment analysis and transcription as early AI use cases gaining traction with customers, but says the real frontier lies in customizable, integrated services for verticals like legal or healthcare. “If everyone sells the same VoIP package, price becomes the differentiator,” Dadds warns. “That’s not sustainable.” Dadds coins the term “Cloud 3.0” to describe today’s communications landscape—one where voice is just one of many components. “The real ROI,” he says, “comes from combining collaboration, CRM, contact center, AI, and more, into a smart, responsive platform tailored to how people work today.” He encourages resellers to explore VanillaIP’s and Uboss’ tools for enabling self-service sales, real-time provisioning, and vertical-specific differentiation—accessible via: vanillaip.com uboss.com To attend the CCA European Summit and see Dave Dadds live, visit: https://www.cloudcommunications.com/events/eu-summit-2025…

1 UCaaS Mobility 3: Why the Future of Communications Belongs to Service Providers, TalkingPointz Podcast
“Mobility isn’t over. It’s just getting started—and service providers are in the best position to lead.” — Dave Michels, Principal Analyst, TalkingPointz In this thought-provoking Technology Reseller News podcast, Publisher Doug Green spoke with Dave Michels of TalkingPointz about his upcoming presentation at the CCA European Summit 2025 , taking place June 16–17 near Brussels. Known for his witty insights and hard-hitting analysis, Dave shared a powerful message for service providers: UCaaS Mobility 3 is coming—and it’s your moment to lead. Michels describes UCaaS Mobility 3 as the next evolution in business communications, where UCaaS is no longer just an app on a smartphone (Mobility 2), but directly embedded via SIM, offering users a seamless second business number. Though early initiatives like Cisco Webex Go and Microsoft Teams Phone Mobile have gained traction, adoption has been slower than expected. “But maybe I wasn’t wrong,” Michels reflected. “Maybe I was just early.” Drawing on his extensive travels across Europe, Michels sees a continent where mobile-first commerce, WhatsApp integration, and SIM-based UCaaS are gaining serious ground—and predicts the U.S. will follow. At the Summit, Dave will explore how geopolitical headwinds and regulatory shifts are converging with advances in AI and mobile communications. He makes the case that service providers—not OTT players—are now best positioned to drive this change . As UCaaS begins to converge with mobile identity, data ownership, and user expectations, SIM-based integration offers a clear path forward. “We’ve been living in a broken world of apps, dual phones, and confusing ownership models,” Michels said. “This shift will simplify communications and empower providers to deliver end-user value like never before.” You can catch Michels live at the CCA European Summit, where his session will offer a fresh lens on opportunity in a time of challenge.

In this forward-looking episode of Technology Reseller News , Doug Green interviews Srikrishnan (Sri) Ganesan , CEO and co-founder of Rocketlane , following the company’s Propel 2025 conference. Ganesan outlines a new model for the future of project-based services delivery—what Rocketlane calls the Intelligent Delivery Organization . Rocketlane is a professional services automation (PSA) platform designed to help service delivery teams unify project execution, customer engagement, staffing, and margin control—all on one AI-powered platform. Ganesan emphasizes that the era of traditional professional services is evolving rapidly into a hybrid model of human + AI collaboration , where efficiency, proactive delivery, and superior customer experience are no longer trade-offs—they’re intertwined goals. One major theme of Propel 2025 was rethinking legacy systems and adopting an “AI-first” mindset. Ganesan shares how Rocketlane clients, including leaders from Zoom and Palantir, are already leveraging AI agents to automate documentation, configuration, and even elements of decision-making—allowing human experts to focus on solution design and customer relationships. “We’re not replacing humans—we’re enhancing them,” Ganesan explains. “Think of AI as an intelligent intern that never sleeps and gets better every day.” From enabling real-time project health tracking to capturing customer sentiment throughout the project lifecycle, Rocketlane is helping organizations move from reactive firefighting to proactive delivery , making delays and inefficiencies a thing of the past. Ganesan also cautions that companies stuck in disjointed systems may struggle to compete. “If one company delivers a project in two months, and the other takes eight—customers will pick the faster team every time. It’s less risky, more valuable, and it’s where the industry is heading.” To learn more, visit https://www.rocketlane.com .

In this inaugural episode of a special ASCDI and Technology Reseller News podcast series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, interviews Noa Sussman of TecEx—a global IT compliance and logistics specialist and ASCDI member—on a deceptively complex topic: cross-border IT shipments. Shipping tech equipment globally isn’t as simple as handing it over to FedEx or DHL. As Sussman explains, once equipment crosses a border, it enters a maze of tariffs, taxes, permits, and regulations—many of which can lead to multimillion-dollar fines or even trade bans if mishandled. “People think they can just stick something in a box and ship it overseas. But that’s just the beginning of what needs to happen,” said Sussman. TecEx, a part of VAT IT Group, has become a trusted partner for global IT deployments by offering a critical service: acting as the Importer and Exporter of Record in over 200 jurisdictions. This enables clients—including hyperscalers, OEMs, and resellers—to enter new markets without establishing a legal entity in every country. Sussman shares harrowing stories of companies that ignored compliance—one fined $1 million and nearly shut out of China; another whose shipments to Mexico were destroyed outright. These cautionary tales highlight why logistics is no longer just an administrative issue, but a boardroom-level concern tied directly to go-to-market success. “When you’re trying to break into a new region—especially in fast-moving sectors like AI—you can’t afford delays at the border,” Sussman said. “The right logistics partner isn’t just about shipping—it’s about growth, speed, and risk mitigation.” This episode kicks off a fortnightly series exploring how to “drain the complexity” from global shipping. Upcoming episodes will delve into selecting the right logistics partner, managing shifting tariffs, and understanding evolving international trade rules.

“Verification is no longer a nice-to-have—it’s a must-have,” says Gegham Azatyan, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer at Dexatel, in a conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News. In this episode, Azatyan introduces Dexatel Verify, a new CPaaS solution designed to intelligently authenticate users across multiple channels in real time. Founded in 2015, Dexatel helps global brands build secure and reliable customer communication through SMS, voice, email, and chat apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Viber. Now, with the launch of Dexatel Verify, the company is addressing the rising challenges of online fraud, fake accounts, and high messaging costs—particularly in markets where SMS pricing is prohibitive or unreliable. Gegham Azatyan Unlike traditional one-time password (OTP) solutions, Dexatel Verify uses smart fallback logic, a system that dynamically selects the best communication channel for each user and region. If a text message fails, the system might try a voice call or switch to WhatsApp or RCS—all automatically and in real time. This innovation isn’t just about efficiency—it’s also about cost savings. “Customers using fallback logic can save up to 30%,” Azatyan notes, especially those in high-volume industries like fintech, e-commerce, healthcare, and education. The solution is also fully compliant with GDPR and ISO 27001, making it suitable for businesses operating in regulated sectors. As Dexatel expands into the U.S. and Canadian markets, Azatyan sees Verify as a critical enabler for companies onboarding new users securely and affordably—turning customer verification into a seamless, cost-effective, and fraud-resistant process.

1 Beyond Recycling: Xperien’s Vision for Biodiversity, Data Integrity, and Sustainable ITAD in Africa, Podcast
“Disposing of IT equipment is no longer just about recycling—it’s about responsibility, integrity, and biodiversity,” says Wale Arewa, Founder and CEO of Xperien, in this wide-ranging conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News. The discussion, part of a special podcast series for ASCDI and TR Publications, dives deep into how Xperien is redefining the IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) landscape across Africa. Arewa explains that while traditional recyclers often handle equipment at its end-of-life stage, ITAD companies like Xperien engage earlier—during technology transitions—to manage secure data erasure, equipment redeployment, and logistical coordination. What truly sets Xperien apart, however, is its pioneering integration of biodiversity and sustainability goals into the ITAD process. Marking International Biodiversity Day, Arewa highlighted how Xperien offers clients the opportunity to redirect residual asset value into biodiversity projects—going beyond ESG reporting to real-world impact. From establishing gardens to sponsoring environmental initiatives, Xperien helps enterprises align their ITAD practices with global sustainability and circular economy goals. Serving blue-chip clients, particularly in the financial services and insurance sectors, Xperien supports operations across ten African territories. The company partners with ITADs and OEMs in the U.S. and Europe, offering secure, accredited services in Africa backed by R2v3 certification. With a robust ERP-backed chain of custody, onsite data destruction, and global resale through over 6,000 dealers, Xperien ensures both data security and maximum value recovery. Arewa urges North American and European enterprises with African operations to collaborate with local ITAD experts like Xperien to meet compliance, reduce environmental risk, and gain peace of mind. He also invites strategic partnerships to help meet rising demand for refurbished technology across the continent. “The biggest risk isn’t what you pay—it’s what you ignore. A data leak can cost millions and reputations,” Arewa warns, referencing high-profile compliance failures.

“Where’s the gold? It’s in your data.” That was the premise behind a wide-ranging conversation between Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, and Lorenzo Romano, CEO of GCX, a global managed services provider with a 30-year legacy of delivering secure networking solutions to multinational enterprises. Romano describes how today’s enterprises face an evolving paradox: data is more valuable than ever—and more vulnerable. With the explosion of cloud-based applications, AI-driven operations, and globally distributed workforces, organizations must rethink how they manage, protect, and gain insight from massive volumes of data generated across disparate systems. Romano introduced GNSX—Global Network Secure Experience—GCX’s breakthrough platform that merges secure underlay and overlay architecture to enable a true zero trust network. Built in partnership with Palo Alto Networks and integrated with their Prisma backbone, GNSX embeds SASE at the network layer rather than layering it over existing infrastructure.
