Realities Remixed

Quantum materials discovery shows how quantum computing can create real value in industry by working alongside AI, advanced computing, and experiments to better understand materials, improve decision-making, and accelerate innovation at scale, ultimately helping deliver practical, measurable progress for the energy transition.
This week, Dave, Esmee, and Rob are joined by co-host and quantum expert Phalgun Lolur, together with Jonathan Owens, Senior Scientist in Computational Materials Physics at GE Vernova to explore how quantum computing could reshape materials discovery and why that matters for the future of energy.

Life sciences are at a turning point, where scientific innovation, regulatory pressure, and patient expectations collide with unprecedented advances in data, AI, and digital platforms. IT is no longer a supporting function but a critical driver of how therapies are discovered, developed, scaled, and delivered safely and at speed.
This week, Dave and Rob wrap up our State of Life Sciences mini-series with Thorsten Rall, Global Industry Lead for Life Sciences at Capgemini and together, they connect the dots across the series, exploring how AI, data and innovation are accelerating drug discovery, transforming med tech, modernising manufacturing and improving patient outcomes, all built on a strong digital foundation.

'Realities Remixed' is an original podcast from Capgemini

Resilience is the recognition that in today’s highly interconnected and unpredictable world, disruption cannot always be anticipated or prevented and therefore requires a shift from traditional risk avoidance toward designing systems that can absorb shocks, adapt in real time, and recover quickly, ultimately emerging stronger and turning uncertainty into a source of advantage.
This week, Dave, Esmee, and Rob are joined by Benjamin Trump, President Society for Risk Analysis and Cedrick Moriggi, Chief Resilience Officer and co-found the CCRO network under the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction, to explore what resilience means in a world shaped by systemic risk, fragile supply chains, climate shocks, cyber threats and human decision-making.
