The Future Is In Their Hands - Here Come The Millenials
We often forget that some of the technology we use every day begins life in the labs of Universities around the world, and many of those people doing the work will one day be the technology leaders we look to solve the worlds most challenging problems. Today we are going to be speaking to one of those future leaders.
Sandesh and I were recently talking with Kai Pederson, a young man Sandesh has known since he was a child. We heard his stories as a member of the Army National Guard working on Cyber Security, his work in chip manufacturing and his research on energy harvesting IOT devices. So much is said today about Millennials, we thought it would be good to bring one on to hear about what work and life is really like for them, and what we have to look forward to when they run the world.
