Technology and innovation is alluring, mystical. And as such, once you’ve worked in an innovative company, with the innovative people that come with it, it really is hard to make the shift to any other industry.

To keep up, I scan the tech news daily. Nothing has caught my attention more than SpaceX. Reusing rockets is an innovative idea, and Elon Musk’s team just keeps innovating at lightning speed...

In March, SpaceX became the first company to reflight an orbital-class rocket and this past weekend, SpaceX made history again and reached another milestone. It launched two flights back-to-back. No doubt, it's one step closer to achieving its vision of sending humans cost-effectively to mars.

What's next? SpaceX’s next milestone is to relaunch a single booster within 24 hours. Now that’s iterating at rocket speed.

#### Ready to iterate at rocket speed?
