Named for the Swedish custom that eschews the ‘on-the-go paper coffee cup’ routine in favor of slowing down and catching up with colleagues and friends, the Fjord Fika podcast features unscripted conversations with key luminaries and thought leaders in technology and design. Sometimes strange, but always interesting, each Fika conversation offers a fresh, honest look at all sides of innovation – the good, the bad and the ugly – and the impact on society. Fjord is a design and innovation consultancy, part of Accenture Interactive.

What if you can create sustainable, clean energy just by taking a walk? Well, you can, thanks to Laurence Kemball-Cook. His energy harvesting startup, Pavegen, has pioneered a flooring tile that converts wasted kinetic energy from footsteps into renewable electricity, which has the ability to transform smart cities of the future, entirely through footfall. In this Fika break, we spoke to Kemball-Cook about energy harvesting, fighting climate change, and weathering the ups and downs of entrepreneurship.
