Listen "Talking the Pope into doing a TED Talk "
Episode Synopsis
This week on Taking Stock Mandy Johnston talks to Bruno Giussani, who was the global curator of TED from 2005. He orchestrated talks from the likes of Pope Francis, Bill Gates, and countless others. We hear the fascinating story of the birth and growth of TED. Jamie Smyth, Energy Correspondent for the Financial Times, explains how the U.S. is gearing up to test the waters for a nuclear fuel revival—an issue with implications for energy markets worldwide.
