Cassie WerberTwo very interesting presentations.
Brilliantly clear from the FT. I'd have liked a little more explanation from Duedil - some visuals would have been really useful, a little more contextualisation about where their tool fits in with those which exist already, which would have made clearer where the interesting departures are. Thanks again for organising!
