Just visited Nuro who are making these robotic self driving cars that are being used to deliver groceries in parts of the USA. Nuro was started by a young New Zealander a couple of years ago. Truly amazing!

Really interesting visit to Autodesk (inventors of Autocad) Technology Centre in SF. Here they are developing AI for use in robots.

Well done to the STRmix team for winning NZ’s premier science award - the Prime Minister’s Prize. Fantastic testament to their innovative thinking and dedication. Very proud of the team!

Great interview with ESR’s ‘super duper qualified Chief Scientist this morning . So dedicated was he to study (which keeps you very poor) that he even ended up at a soup kitchen

[Plant & Food Research @plantandfood]

We caught up with @ChiefSciAdvisor Professor Juliet Gerrard, who has been travelling around NZ to listen to the #ScienceCommunity. She received many questions and comments from @plantandfood and @ESRNewZealand employees at Mt Albert today.

Last day of my IMD course. Inspirational address from Bertrand Picard (he is on the left) - innovator extraordinaire. He flew a balloon around the world and then a solar powered plane. “It’s not the reality that makes things impossible, it’s the mind”.

Last evening Mark Schneider, CEO of Nestle, talked about how he runs a $130 billion company. Very interesting talk about his journey with the company since his appointment 18 months ago.

#NZ Ambassador to China Clare Fearnley in #Shanghai for her first official visit. Today the focus was on discussions with the Science and Technology Commission, and the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences. Good opportunity to talk through existing links and regional developments

This is a really nice piece about New Zealand’s water and its future. It’s everyone’s issue https://t.co/Gwylb0KTSi

Listen to ESR Environmental Scientist, Dr Olga Pantos, talk about the risks plastics pose in the soil. One potentially hidden source of plastic moving into the environment is via compost. https://t.co/Hc8SPsxAi0
