Over the past few weeks, The Takeaway has been talking about innovation – what it is, and how we can spark more of it. We’ve talked about medicine, communication, education, and technology, among other topics. And we’ve talked with some of the biggest names and inventors out there. We wrap up our series with one of the most famous modern innovators in the world: James Dyson. Dyson is the legendary inventor most famous for his bagless vacuum cleaner and super-fast hand dryer. He recently made headlines with his assertion that the U.S. could remedy its trade deficit with some good old-fashioned innovation.
