Tech Adoption as Key Metric for US Science Policy

Interview with Tanya Ramond

Jan 30, 2025

A timely topic - by pure coincidence - we’re discussing science and technology policy in the US. In my podcast this week, my guest was Tanya Ramond. Tanya is the founder and CEO of Sapienne Consulting, a firm dedicated to helping companies with commercialization strategy in deep tech areas such as aerospace, quantum, photonics, cleantech, and more.

She recently wrote this great article on Tech Adoption in American Policy suggesting that current US policy is misaligned in how it measures success. You can read the article, published on Dynamic Tech Media here.

At the time of recording, the United States is entering a second term with President Trump, and a few days after the recording even witnessing presidential executive orders on funding scientific research. What better time to explore this extremely important topic, important both for Europe and for the U.S. You can listen to the whole podcast episode with Tanya here:
