Exponentially with Azeem Azhar celebrates the creative, critical thinking used by leaders to conceive of a pragmatic vision for the near future, along with the deep understanding of what is needed to turn that vision into reality. Each episode starts with an optimistic idea for what our lives might soon be like. Azeem and his guest then put that idea under the microscope in a relaxed conversation that explores the nuances and hidden assumptions behind what is possible and what is not, what is likely and what is far-fetched. If the advance of technology feels scarily fast or even out of control, then Azeem’s conversations with founders, investors, scientists and politicians brings clarity and new-found understanding to this Exponential Age we are all experiencing.
