Joachim Horn wants engineering to feel more like cooking - so he created simple ingredients that can be easily mixed to make smart technology. With units that connect objects to each other and the Internet, he wants to reinfuse technology engineering with joy and ease, so anyone can be an inventor.
TED@UPS was a TED-curated event featuring a diverse group of speakers from across the UPS community. Jointly produced by TED and UPS, the event put a spotlight on ideas, projects and insights that will contribute to the importance of pushing forward through obstacles.
