Welcome back to What’s NEXT, the podcast exploring the technology of the future. This week’s episode is the seventh in a series of podcasts recorded during Tech Open Air 2019, where we hosted the TOA Podcast Studio to explore the human stories behind tomorrow's groundbreaking innovations.

In this episode, Ricardo J. Méndez speaks with Jan Solem, co-founder and CEO of Mapillary, about how he leveraged his background in computer vision to develop a new system of mapping, his enjoyment of starting massive projects with zero lines of code, and his willingness to reconsider data collection with scalability in mind.
