technology needs investors
We need to encourage investors to invest in high-technology startups.
technology effort want
If you really want to improve technology, if you want things to work better and be better, you've got to protect the person who spends a lot of effort, money, and time developing that new technology.
technology east world
The way the world is going, it's technology driven. And it isn't just driven by the old super powers, it's driven by the far east and new emerging economies.
technology thinking people
So I think the winners in recession are the people who produce new technology that does things better, which people really want.
technology ideas design
Design and technology should be the subject where mathematical brainboxes and science whizzkids turn their bright ideas into useful products.
unique technology keys
Most robotic vacuum cleaners don't see their environment, have little suction, and don't clean properly. They are gimmicks. We've been developing a unique 360 vision system that lets our robot see where it is, where it has been, and where it is yet to clean. Vision, combined with our high speed digital motor and cyclone technology, is the key to achieving a high performing robot vacuum - a genuine labor saving device.
mistake technology hands
The important thing is to learn from mistakes - something graduates are adept at. Our graduate engineers are working on new technology - from uncharted applications for our digital motor, to a new take on the hand dryer. With an unhindered mind, nothing is off limits.
technology needs characteristics
Anyone developing new products and new technology needs one characteristic above all else: hope.
math technology engineering
I'm not into politics but I am committed to a cause: ensuring design technology and engineering stays on the U.K. curriculum, alongside science and maths - grounding abstract theory, merging the practical with the academic.
technology ideas plenty
After the idea, there is plenty of time to learn the technology
enjoy failure learn
Enjoy failure and learn from it. You can never learn from success.
art escaped mini school took
When I escaped to art school it was a Mini that took me there.
build cheap economical mini perfect
The Mini was cheap to run, economical to build and perfect for nipping about town.
sexy thinking issues
The media thinks that you have to make science sexy and concentrate on themes such as rivalry and the human issues.
