I had the opportunity of imaging how nanophotonic will change our technology 20 years from now, and to present my vision at TechForesight2038: Shifting realities , a great event organised by Imperial at the British Library.
While it has been a real challenge to move from presenting what I can back up with hard data and experiments to speculations, I really enjoyed to extrapolate the future from current science, imaging how our research could get into the real world. I have never done anything like that before, I am very grateful to the Imperial TechForesight team that has supported me, and basically taught me how to talk to industrial partners. There was any flow attribute it to my poor acting skills ;-)
