About This Episode
Matt Rogers of Nest Labs shows off the newly refreshed Nest Learning Thermostat and also talks about his early days working at Apple where he worked on some of the early prototypes of the iPhone. Matt Rogers' must-do advice for startups: "Build your first core team right. For each of your core competencies of the company, you want to hire a seed crystal for that area - someone who can be hands-on, but also has the strategy and leadership to grow and build that organization."
