Alina, Anthony, Mike, and Karthik discuss the passage of the ADVANCE act, which sets out to create a new regulatory regime for nuclear power in America. Then, the discussion turns to nostalgia as a commercial force, and why exactly companies are selling bizarre flavor mashups of beloved products.

The world needs more and better innovation to solve climate, waste, and health problems in an increasingly tumultuous and uncertain world – not just the latest app, gadget, or software, but real deep tech innovation in energy, manufacturing, agrifood, resources, and more.

In this podcast, sustainable innovation experts Anthony Schiavo, Mike Holman, Karthik Subramanian, and Alina Strugut from Lux Research analyze the latest news and interview world-leading experts to navigate the technological, economic, political, and social trends that will determine what innovations succeed or fail.
