Dr Kate Stone describes herself as a ‘creative scientist’, who after completing a PhD in physics and micro-electronics at Cambridge, created her groundbreaking start-up, Novalia. At Novalia, Dr Kate and her team combine conductive print and capacitive touch to create smart surfaces that act as sensors and speakers.
Dr Kate is a transwoman and suffered discrimination at the hands of the media in 2013, but that didn’t stop her from doing a phenomenal TED talk that’s been watched by over 600,000 people.
