Anthony, Mike, Alina, and Karthik convene to discuss China’s recent ban on exports of gallium and germanium. They touch on the political outlook (pretty grim), the opportunity for new tech (pretty good), and the potential backlash from consumers (pretty likely).

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.

The opinions expressed are those of the hosts and guests, and do not reflect the views of Lux Research.
