Secret Leaders

Meet the CEO Bill Gates backs to beat Tesla: Alex Kendall, Wayve.AI


Listen Later

In this episode of Secret Leaders, we sit down with Alex Kendall, co-founder & CEO of Wayve AI — the $1B+ British startup taking on Tesla in the race to build a driverless future.

From raising $1.05 billion from Microsoft, SoftBank, and NVIDIA, to reimagining cities with AI-powered vehicles, Alex shares how his company is changing how we live, commute, and move goods.

- Why do 1.2 million people still die on roads every year?

- Why are cars asleep 96% of the time and what if they could work for us?
- Could AI make driving safer than humans ever could?

We dive into how Wayve’s embodied AI competes with Tesla, why public trust is still the biggest barrier, and how your car might soon become your second living room.
