Reece Proudfoot – WWF, Intellectual Property and How Technology Can Save The World

Welcome to Episode 37 of Good Will Hunters! This week I chat to Reece Proudfoot, Innovation Strategist at WWF Australia and Founder of Panda-Labs, Australia’s sustainable technology accelerator.

THIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY THE INTREPID GROUP, THE TOUR COMPANY PROVIDING SUSTAINABLE, EXPERIENCE-RICH TRAVEL.

I first met Reece at a ‘Blockchain Breakfast’ hosted by WWF and NAB in November last year. Reece had a knack for discussing innovation with a mix of intellect, enthusiasm and caution. Reece has revolutionised WWF’s approach to support innovation, and his work is the epitome of strong private sector and charitable sector collaboration.

In this episode we discuss whether technology can save the world, how charities can leverage their intellectual property, whether better oversight of expenditure will create more trust, the use of blockchain, and the importance of good corporate partnerships, plus a whole lot more.

Enjoy!
