TNW Podcast: Jennifer Goodall on brain-computer interface tech; first robotic surgery on UK child

Welcome to the new episode of the TNW Podcast — the show where we discuss the latest developments in the European technology ecosystem and feature interviews with some of the most interesting people in the industry.

In today’s episode, Linnea and Ioanna talk about the entry into force of the EU’s AI Act and what it means for companies, futuristic robotic surgery, meteor showers, and enter the sci-fi fandom realm with some Douglas Adams trivia.

You’ll also hear an on-stage conversation with Jennifer Goodall, CEO at MindAffect, a brain-computer interface (BCI) startup that develops hearing and vision diagnostics systems for hard-to-test patients. The topic of the conversation read “How Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Technology is Revolutionising Healthcare,” and the on-stage interview was conducted by this week’s co-host Ioanna Lykiardopoulou.
