Tiny Little Victories podcast: inside the box with the Holoconnects CEO

On the Tiny Little Victories podcast, Holoconnects CEO Andre Smith talks about how hologram technology is being used to build human connection in industries that have been quietly starved of it, healthcare, hospitality, education, and large scale brand activation.

The conversation covers the origin story of the Holobox, the engineering trade-offs behind a life size hologram that runs on power-plus-internet, and the reason "presence" turns out to matter more than image fidelity for most use cases.

Topics covered in the episode

Why hospitality went first: hotel check-in is a high-volume, multilingual interaction where a real receptionist's time isn't always available, but guests still want a human touch.

How healthcare is catching up: from Crescent Regional Hospital in Texas to telehealth networks across Europe, the hologram is becoming a credible part of the specialist-care delivery model.

What the next two years look like: AI Hologram (generative content that responds in real time) + Digital Twins (recreating historical or absent people from sparse source material) widening the use-case map.
