Thomas and Prof. Slav Hermanowicz first met in Shenzhen earlier this year, during a seminar on technology, sustainability, and productivity. A few conversations later, it was clear we could not leave it at that. So we invited him to join us on the podcast and continue the discussion in more depth.

In this Christmas Special, Slav shares his perspective after more than 25 years working between China, Europe, and the US. As a Professor at UC Berkeley with deep ties to Chinese universities and research institutes, he talks about how China has changed on the ground. From environmental engineering and clean water to electric mobility, AI, and systems thinking, he explains what China does differently and where it is already ahead.

We also talk about education, startups, and what the rise of AI means for engineers, universities, and society as a whole.

Happy holidays everyone!
