Show Notes

After our appearance on the BBC on Friday (Living in lockdown is like living on Mars - featuring Kim's interview with astrobiologist Charles Cockell) we turn to business and sustainability.

Two guests with amazing stories share details of their pioneering work.

Gary Watmough is using satellite data to measure poverty.

Robin Sampson is fusing satellite data with blockchain to create tradable contracts for commodities traders.

Both are based in Edinburgh - amazing huh?!
