Roy Schwartz co-founded Axios, the news company known for smart brevity, and helped grow it to a $525 million sale to Cox Enterprises. He's now co-founder and CEO of Axios HQ, an AI-powered internal communications platform spun out of Axios. He co-wrote Smart Brevity, and his new book is Simplify. Before Axios, he was chief revenue officer of Politico.

In this episode of Summation, Roy and Auren discuss:

  • Meeting bankruptcy: wiping every recurring meeting off the calendar twice a year
  • AI as a complexity machine and the slop it's adding to every email and deck
  • The end of well-rounded, and why AI eats anyone who is average
  • Building Axios for influencers instead of casual readers, plus 200 events a year
