With the introduction of the Galaxy Z TriFold, Samsung has pushed foldable phones closer toward mainstream adoption. Release was limited to South Korea, with just a few thousand units available (which quickly sold out), so this was not mass adoption. But it was a signal.
Scale isn’t Samsung’s priority. Shaping perception and demonstrating technological leadership is.

Fear is a natural survival instinct. In our professional lives, it often latches onto things like being judged or failure, and because so much of our self-worth and stability can feel tied to our careers, small fears can grow larger than life.
A 2024 survey by the American Psychological Association found that 42% of working adults reported feeling burned out. This shows why it’s important to address workplace fears before they take a serious toll.

Today we view Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde as Gothic horror stories, but they were initially anxious meditations on the Industrial Revolution, a period when steam engines and factory machinery transformed society faster than anyone thought possible. Many currently find themselves in a similar moment of panic. Except this time, the pace of change is exponential.

Perimenopause, affecting over 1 billion women globally, remains one of the most underserved areas of healthcare. Standard approaches often rely on years of trial and error, leaving women and their doctors frustrated, unsupported, and at risk of preventable age-related conditions.

Since the mid-1800s, technology has changed beyond recognition – from developing electrical grids to computing in the cloud, from mechanical calculators to artificial intelligence. Yet, the fundamental nature of the people who create these technologies remains remarkably constant. They are, above all, creative scientists.

Food for the Brain, the UK’s Alzheimer’s prevention charity, has been selected by Innovate UK, the Government’s research and innovation agency, to develop and then roll-out to the National Health Service (NHS) a reliable test to help identify those at risk of dementia. The aim is to identify the markers that indicate a person is at risk of developing dementia long before it is too late to take steps to prevent its onset.

Social media platform TikTok is a vast, endlessly scrolling stream of creativity, mimicry, and influence. Around 170 million Americans now open the app regularly, joining hundreds of millions more around the world in what has become a kind of global video bazaar. It is, as some have called it, a smorgasbord of culture. Yet “dim sum” might be the better metaphor, because TikTok’s ultimate owner is ByteDance, a Chinese company – and that fact has been a persistent thorn in Washington’s side.

By David Bruce OBE, founder of Bruce’s Brewery and the Firkin pubs and author of The Firkin Saga
When I realized university wasn’t happening, I had to choose between apprenticeships at Courage brewery or Shell oil. I chose brewing because it sounded much more fun with its pubs and breweries than petrol stations and oil refineries. It was the best move I ever made, setting me up for life as an entrepreneur. That two-year training program gave me everything I needed: whisky blending, wine importing, accountancy, pub management, and most importantly, genuine empathy with employees. I understood every aspect of the pub business because I’d done every job myself. Without that grounding I would not have built a successful group of 12 pubs across London, eventually selling the chain for £6.6 million.

Meta’s Threads has quietly released an option to allow all users to send direct messages to each other; it is testing if Threads could be turned into a messaging app. But this isn’t innovation, it’s survival. Meta is betting that users want tighter access over larger audiences, and that the social currency of the 2020s isn’t likes, it’s direct reach.

If you had to pick the five inventions that have had the greatest impact on the world in the last 100 years, there are many candidates to choose from. Aircraft, automobiles, and the Internet are all strong contenders. Among those also having a good case for making the cut is the mobile phone, particularly the smartphone. Think about your own phone. You may have used it as an alarm to get you out of bed, as a newspaper while the kettle boiled, as a diary to check the day’s appointments, as a Sat-Nav to get you to those appointments, as a book to read at lunch, and as a way to pay for that lunch. You may have even made an actual phone call. And you could be reading this on your phone right now. None of that would be possible if not for a dead frog.
