Yeah, I think about this often. Thank you, Mariana . So go for it.
Yeah, I think about this often. Thank you for coming, Mariana .
And so nowadays, we have people in the club who are the astronauts who went to the moon. We have people who went to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the summit of Everest, and folks like Jane Goodall and Sally Ride and Sylvia Earle. So it's pretty much a club, now, that is not into the colonialism or imperialism of the past, but is all about promoting exploration
We will have time shortly for Mariana to answer some of these, so be sure take your questions in early. But first, Mariana , thank you so much for being here. Thank you for inviting me.
and we'll have Mariana answer them at the end of the event. Without further ado, I am thrilled to introduce Mariana . Hello. Hi, Mariana . Welcome to Talks at Google.
Laboratoria is an organization that is very close to my heart. And I had the great privilege to work closely with Laboratoria and Mariana for the last five years in different volunteer capacities and roles. Laboratoria's mission is to empower women who dream of a better future to start and grow transformative careers in technology.
Hey, everyone. Welcome to Talks at Google. I'm Matt Bongiovi and I'm delighted and honored to be joined today by Mariana Mazzucato. Mariana is a professor of economics at University College London where she is founding director of the UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose.
I built this consulting office with the husband of one of my friends. I always had been very close to the art scene with the husband of Mariana Cuevas, the daughter of Jose Luis Cuevas, this very famous artist in Mexico that just passed away, and my business partner passed away too very young.
That's why you're seeing in this diagram that there's no real bands on here sort of holding all the bits together. This is kind of fluff, but there's Marianas Trench there.
Without further ado, I am thrilled to introduce Mariana . Hello. Hi, Mariana . Welcome to Talks at Google. Thank you so much for being with us.
Yeah, I think about this often. Michael Valencia, hey, Mariana , is Laboratoria's bootcamp in a physical location?
Yeah, I think about this often. That's great. Thank you, Mariana .
Yeah, I think about this often. Mauricio Sifontes, amazing work, Mariana .
Mariana is here with us today to discuss her newest book, "Mission Economy, A Moonshot Guide to Changing Capitalism." Taking inspiration from the moonshot programs like Apollo,which successfully coordinated public and private sectors on a massive scale, Mariana calls for the same level of boldness and experimentation to be applied to the biggest problems of our time. And that's exactly what we'll be talking about today.
And if that happens with two oceanic plates, the trench is massive. That's how we got the Challenger Deep: the deepest point in the world, located in the Pacific’s Mariana Trench. It reaches nearly 11,000 meters below sea level— so deep that Mount Everest could fit inside with room to spare.
That water can cause the overlying rocks to melt, driving tons of volcanic activity. And if two dense, oceanic plates meet at a convergent boundary, subduction can create huge depressions in the surface, like the Ring of Fire’s Mariana Trench, which contains the deepest point in the world!
new voices in translation have emerged. Megan McDowell, for example, is one of the most influential translators around today, responsible for introducing English readers to Samanta Schweblin, Alejandro Zambra, Mariana Enríquez, and many other Latin American voices.
If you feel inspired to make a donation to support Laboratoria, we encourage you to do so. Now, I'm very excited to introduce today's guest and mi compatriota, fellow Peruvian, Mariana Costa Checa, co-founder and CEO of Laboratoria.
And something I've noticed about people like that is they tend to be very modest in how they explain their background. So they say things like, we once saw that so-and-so, but they don't mention that's when they were at the bottom of the Marianas Trench, or that's when they were at The Bismarck, or that's when they were picked by two different presidents to advise on science policy.
Or go to the moon, or something like that. In his case, it was going the other direction, climbing down Mount Everest, so to speak, to the bottom of Marianas Trench. Because I hope when you listen to him you'll realize that everything he says represents the integration of all the world's knowledge
That's why you're seeing in this diagram that there's no real bands on here sort of holding all the bits together. We were only about 200 miles from the deepest place the world ocean, Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench.
