26 - A City of Innovation with Santiago Garces and Brian Donoghue

In this episode we talk with Santiago Garces and Brian Donoghue, South Bend’s Chief Innovation Officer and Director of Civic Innovation, respectively. Santi comes to us from Bogota, Colombia while Brian comes from Youngstown, a city that, similar to ours, experienced painful industrial decline and decay. Our conversation centers around the founding of enFocus and the City’s Department of Innovation, our local culture of getting shit done, and stories explaining why South Bend’s name is increasingly being spoken around the world.
