How drones are changing the way emergency responders work

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — When a tractor-trailer carrying chlorine pool tablets crashed and caught on fire on Interstate 24 in Rutherford County in December 2016, emergency personnel weren’t able to get close enough to assess.

How a tech pioneer from Salford almost invented Facebook

Wendy Tan White owes a lot to Maggie Thatcher.

These days Tan White invests her time and money into new tech start-ups, while banging the drum for women in tech and for the unimaginable potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
But before this country’s iconic first female Prime Minister came along, Tan White’s mum and dad laid the foundations for her to achieve her ambitions.
