Authors Abstract
Content

From crispy French fries to critical medical supplies, one company is transforming how goods move around the world with autonomous drone delivery technology. In 2016, Zipline, began with life-saving deliveries of blood and medical products in Rwanda and has since evolved into a global network expanding access to healthcare, consumer goods, and food. Operating across four continents and completing a delivery every 60 seconds, Zipline now serves more than 5,000 hospitals, retailers, and restaurants. Listen in as we sit down with Keenan Wyrobek, Co-Founder and CTO, to explore how Zipline's pioneering approach to drone logistics is saving lives, reducing emissions, and opening new doors for economic opportunity -- one autonomous flight at a time. We'd love to hear from you. Share your comments, questions and ideas for future topics and guests to podcast@sae.org.
