Pioneering Tech Podcast

In the Pioneering Tech Podcast, a science journalist dives into a concrete solution to a social problem developed at TU Delft in each episode. He/she does this together with a guest; a policymaker, politician or interest group that is committed to solving that social challenge. All this to answer that one question: how do we get this new innovative application rolled out in the Netherlands and take the next step towards a better future.

The journalist and the guest take a look at the innovation chain at TU Delft: from the first development in science to the moment they actually hold the product in their hands at a company. With what application in mind was it developed? Which social aspects have been considered? What is needed to make this application available to society? And what hurdles do we still have to overcome?
