- K-Businesscom launches new podcast "Coffee, Tea, Technology"
- First guest: Rafael Laguna de la Vera, founding director of the federal agency for leap innovations "SPRIND"
Vienna, February 3, 2021 - Rafael Laguna is the first guest in K-Businesscom's new podcast. The director of "SPRIND", the agency for leap innovations of the Federal Republic of Germany, talks to host Sandra Baierl about craziness at the expense of the state, the role of Europe in the (tech) world and a possible European Elon Musk.
The first episode of "Coffee, Tea, Technology" is all about innovation. Rafael Laguna has been working as an entrepreneur and investor in the software sector for over 30 years. He founded his first company at the age of just 16. For the past year, he has headed the Federal Agency for Leap Innovations in Leipzig. Its aim is to implement an innovation policy approach to promote disruptive innovations that is unique in Germany.
In search of the next Elon Musk.
He says: "Somewhere in the Republic lives a bright mind who has what it takes to be the next Elon Musk. You just have to find him." In an interview with Kurier journalist Sandra Baierl and K-Businesscom CEO Jochen Borenich, Laguna de la Vera reveals how the search works and how the new federal agency can help. He also gives an interesting insight into the daily work of an agency that focuses exclusively on innovative, disruptive technologies.
Innovations for Austria too.
Rafael Laguna's team has around one billion euros at its disposal to promote disruptive business models and creative innovations. A huge responsibility that sometimes poses difficult questions for Laguna. How much craziness can you allow at state expense? And when is an idea too outlandish?
We also discuss whether such an institution would also be conceivable for Austria and whether it might pay off to follow our big neighbor in this matter. And what about the role of Europe in terms of innovation and disruption. Is the old continent still searching for a technological identity? So where can the journey lead?
The conversation can be found on all popular podcast platforms from February 3, 2021. "Coffee, Tea, Technology" will be published on a monthly basis in future.
