I’m at GITEX Global, Dubai, one of if not the biggest tech exhibition in the world. All the big names that you would expect are here, Microsoft, AWS, Google, and of course most are talking about AI. And, part of that conversation is energy. Is there enough, where do we get it from, and how do we get it to where it needs to go? Greg Jackson, Co-founder and CEO of Octopus Energy is here as a speaker to go over those things and just before he got on stage, we grabbed a coffee.
I met Greg just outside the speakers booth as he was humbly negotiating with security to let him back in without a lanyard. The bouncer smiled and we set off to get coffee. The following conversation has been edited slightly to make it a bit more readable. For example, I take out the part where we actually buy coffee.
