Where New Industries Come From

​Join The Students to hear a lecture from Ben Landau-Taylor and meet fellow fans of the channel.

​Sober, risk-averse, rational businessmen make great captains of industry—in established industries which someone else already built. But the new industries which drive progress come from wild half-mad ideologues. This lecture will cover the psychology of the men behind the major breakthroughs, from the steam engine to the large language model.

​Dress code: Formal. Jackets required for men. Equivalent for women.

​Arrive at 6pm. Lecture begins at 7pm. Drinks and snacks provided.

​Tickets are $30. Some complimentary tickets are available; contact an organizer if cost is a barrier.
