What supply chain challenges are currently faced by industry and  how can we find solutions that work long-term?  From noodling (don't ask, just listen!) to AI, Blockchain, and the IoT, we explore the ways in which technology is helping to overcome these challenges  with this week's expert, Helen Mackenzie, and ask, "where's the human being in this picture?"

Here's some more information about our special guest:

In this episode, we take a look at smart home technology and discuss what's needed and what's not, whilst considering what we now take for granted.  We look at the ways technology, including AI and IoT, can assist us and play a valuable role in the fields of healthcare and agriculture.

We hope you enjoy listening and, if you have any views on what you consider to be useful or nonsense technology, we'd love to hear them.  Just email us here.

Until next time!
