In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas welcomes Bryan Forrester, CEO and Co-founder of Boost Lingo, a language technology company that's transforming how the world accesses interpreters. Bryan shares how Boost Lingo was born from a mission to make requesting an interpreter as easy as ordering a ride—streamlining outdated systems with cloud-native, user-friendly solutions. He unpacks the startup's path to 50% year-over-year growth, the cultural values that drive innovation, and why focus and discipline were critical to staying on course. Bryan also dives deep into AI’s evolving role in the language services space, emphasizing that AI is not here to replace human interpreters, but to expand access and fill critical language gaps—especially in healthcare and enterprise settings. With insightful takes on intelligent routing, real-time captioning, and the future of accessibility tech, this episode is a must-listen for founders, technologists, and anyone interested in how AI can elevate—not eliminate—human expertise.
