We’re joined by Andrei Danescu, Founder and CEO of Dexory, the groundbreaking robotics company building the world’s largest autonomous robot. In this episode, we dive into the exciting tech behind Dexory’s systems - how they're blendingembedded systems, hardware design, and AI to revolutionise real-time data and automation in logistics and warehousing. We’ll unpack the founding story, technical challenges, and the future of robotics, and hear Andrei’s insights into leading innovation in the fast-evolving world of autonomy.
In this episode, we speak with Dominic Quennell, CEO of Enertechnos - a company driving forward one of the less-talked-about but critically important aspects of the energy transition: transmission and distribution (T&D) efficiency.
Enertechnos has developed Capacitive Transfer System (CTS), an innovative new cable technology that could reduce power losses, support decarbonisation, and boost the capacity and sustainability of global electricity grids.
We explore the intersection of hardware innovation,electrical engineering, and climate impact, while discussing the real-world challenges of getting new technologies adopted in a highly risk-averse industry. From the macro picture of emissions and power demand to the micro-engineering breakthroughs of CTS—this one’s for anyone excited by cleantech, embedded systems, and the future of infrastructure.
In this episode, I’m joined by Labib Latery, founder of Labtronics Design, a hardware consultancy specialising in rapid prototyping and product development. Labib has helped companies transform early concepts into working devices by combining embedded electronics, mechanical design, and firmware - all while navigating the challenges ofworking with manufacturing partners in both London and China.
We’ll talk about the role of rapid prototyping in accelerating hardware development, the engineering trade-offs involved,and the lessons Labib has learned from running his own consultancy. Expect insights on tools, workflows, supply chain realities, and even a few stories from projects that didn’t go quite to plan. This episode is especially relevant for engineers and technology leaders who want to build better hardware faster, avoid common pitfalls, and understand what it really takes to get from idea → first working prototype → production-ready design.
Engineering Consultancy, Overcoming Technical Challenges & Alternative Routes into Engineering. In this episode, we sit down with Nathan Ruttley, an experienced electronic engineer and co-founder of Embedism, an electronic product design consultancy. We’ll explore his journey of founding the company, the challenges of consulting on different projects,and how engineers tackle complex technical problems. Later, we’ll be joined by Louis Kibble, an apprentice product designer, to discuss alternative pathways into engineering and his experience as an apprentice.
Revolutionizing Electronics Design: How Circuit Mind is Automating the Future of Circuit Boards. In this episode, we’ll explore how Circuit Mind is transforming circuit board design, the journey of founding a cutting-edge tech company, and the implications of automation for electronics engineers. Tomide will share insights into their mission, the challenges they’ve faced, and the future of embedded systems and intelligent platforms like ACE.
The Art of Leadership in Technical Teams:Join us as Ross Chisholm, Head of Embedded Software at Focusrite, shares his insights into managing large technical teams, handling complex projects, and guiding engineers through career growth. We’ll explore how technical leadership balances deadlines, budgets, and hiring, while fostering a thriving, culture-fit team.
Exploring the Art of Adaptation in Hardware Engineering: Join us as we dive into the journey of a seasoned hardware engineer and leader who has worked across diverse organizations. We'll uncover insights into adapting product development methods, navigating the differences between big corporates and startups, and fostering successful teams in the ever-evolving world of electronics engineering.
Exploring Adam Taylor’s fascinating journey in the space industry and FPGA design. We’ll discuss his involvement in key space projects, the challenges he’s faced, and how his passion for technology inspired him to create his own space-related products.
