Quote from the video:  ❝I think you do need the governments and the leaders to set ambitious targets and to drive change, but again it's got to come from the businesses itself.

In this Interview with a Tech With Purpose Leader, I speak with Soner Haci, the CEO of BEAD.  

Listen to this interview to learn about what drives Soner, his advice for people wanting to make a difference with human-focused technology and what BEAD are doing to add 'psychology' to buildings.  

Quote from the interview:  ❝ I think what is really fascinating is that I was seeing that we are creating autonomous robots, we are creating autonomous factories, but we are not doing anything on the building side. But at the end of the day we nearly 100 percent of our lives inside those buildings. Even, there is research that called the next generation an indoor generation, and actually, that has happened right now. That makes it much more important to understand those buildings. Not just to see the building like creating a new technology, but more seeing the building as a psychological structure - so understanding those buildings and then integrating those buildings into our daily life. Maybe two buildings can speak with each other, share data like we as humans share data. ❞, Soner Haci
