Frontier Tech Talks

  • If you’re building a sexual health and wellbeing chatbot, how do you get young people in Nairobi to open up about what they want?

  • How do you embed drones into public services in Malawi — from health deliveries, to flood monitoring, to anti-poaching?

  • How do you find the local skills you need to grow a 3D printing sector in Nepal?

For the last three years, the UKAid funded Frontier Technologies Hub has been working with partners around the world to answer questions like these.

Now, for the first time, we’re releasing a 6-part podcast series to hear these answers first hand. You can listen to it through this link, or by searching “Frontier Tech Talks” on iTunes, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

We’re releasing the mini-series to coincide with our fifth Frontier Technology Livestreaming call for ideas for UK Dept. for International Development people.

To find out more about the Frontier Tech Livestreaming programme, read our 4-minute intro here and follow us on Medium for more updates.

Frontier Tech Hub

The Frontier Tech Hub works with UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) staff and global partners to understand the potential for innovative tech in the development context, and then test and scale their ideas.
