Co-founder and presenter of the first episode Lucien von Schomberg said of the project “I'm excited to set sail with The Navigator, where we embrace entrepreneurship and interdisciplinarity as our guiding compass to tackle the pressing challenges of our time! As the saying goes, "The world has problems, but universities have departments", and we're here to break down those barriers. Our inaugural episode delves into the world of Artificial Intelligence and its transformative impact on business, education, and society. But hold onto your seats because this is just the beginning! So stay tuned and get ready to navigate the sea of entrepreneurship and innovation together!”.
