Pioneering Tech Podcast TU Delft
In the Pioneering Tech Podcast from TU Delft, I explore the world of scientists and tech start-ups to find out what’s needed to speed up radical innovation. Each episode, I’m joined by a policymaker or politician as my co-host, making this podcast particularly relevant for those in policy and politics. We dive into the question: what levers can they pull to make these innovations take off?
As the host, I lead the conversations and break down complex technologies for a broad audience. I also handle the research for the podcast.
Each episode focuses on a disruptive technology with the potential to make a significant impact on the world. For example, I visit Battelyser, a battery that can also produce hydrogen, playing a crucial role in the energy transition. I also talk to entrepreneurs in the fields of lab-grown meat and quantum technology.
Through interviews with TU Delft scientists, we reveal the potential of these technologies and the research being conducted at this technical university.
