Today’s guest is Jane Metcalfe, co-founder of WIRED and founder of NEO.LIFE.
In 1993, Jane and Louis Rossetto founded WIRED leading the charge in informing, education and exciting the world about the digital revolution – a term Lewis coined.
25 years later and Jane is doing it all over again with NEO.LIFE and what she calls the neobiological revolution. NEO.LIFE is a digital media and events company set up to explore the rapid developments at the intersection of tech and biology and how its marriage will shape the future of our species.
A serial entrepreneur, innovator and investor, Jane was also President of WIRED ventures, author of Neo Life: 25 Visions for the Future of Our Species and she also started a premium chocolate brand which was acquired in 2018.
In this conversation, we talk about feeling like a misfit, the genesis of one of the most important publications of our time and how it is inevitable that we will all become cyborgs.
