Track Two Podcast, hosted by Sarah Gerber and Joanne Gouaux, explores the diverse definition of entrepreneurship through talking to entrepreneurs, activists, philanthropists and social and professional leaders from around the world. As Gerber herself says, their podcast aims to explore “the intersection of entrepreneurship and civil society as a powerful collaboration for systems that will change.” In our modern day society, it is vital to cover these topics and Gerber and Gouaux succeed as catalysts for opening the conversation focused on the next steps humanity needs to take in order to achieve long-term positive change. Each person they interview offers a personal take on the qualities necessary to succeed and collectively construct the foundation for the path to societal improvement.

Our inability to gather at the altar of music, to share in the joy of its many communal gifts, has taken a toll on us all, especially the tens of thousands of brilliant, committed members of this industry. By now we are all comfortably numb to the losses of lives, health, wellness, experiences, time, confidence in too many institutions to count and, perhaps most of all, justice for too many Black lives and too many names we can never stop saying.
It has been and remains a devastating time. But as our beloved and critically essential industry emerges slowly from the darkness, there is something beautiful appearing; abundance of hope and a renewed commitment to coming back stronger, more united and more urgently focused than ever before.

Cornell researchers have created micron-sized shape memory actuators that enable atomically thin two-dimensional materials to fold themselves into 3D configurations. Self-folding nanotech creates world’s smallest origami bird

If you want to build a fully functional nanosized robot, you need to incorporate a host of capabilities, from complicated electronic circuits and photovoltaics to sensors and antennas.
But just as importantly, if you want your robot to move, you need it to be able to bend.
Cornell researchers have created micron-sized shape memory actuators that enable atomically thin two-dimensional materials to fold themselves into 3D configurations. All they require is a quick jolt of voltage. And once the material is bent, it holds its shape – even after the voltage is removed.
