Viral Shah, an Indian computer scientist and co-founder/CEO of Julia Computing, highlights how computation, particularly his Julia Language, can solve major climate change issues. Julia, a high-impact language, defies the notion that productivity and performance are mutually exclusive in programming. He encourages students to use computation for social impact and global problem-solving.

Shah's contributions extend to the Aadhaar Project and co-authoring "Rebooting India." His work on the Julia Language earned him the 2019 J. H. Wilkinson Prize, and he received the 2013 SETWG award for co-creating Circuitscape. This talk was presented at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

Maritime transportation emits a billion tonnes of CO2 annually, facing new IMO regulations to cut emissions by 50% by 2050. Traditional electric boats struggle with limited range due to water density, hindering industry innovation.

This talk introduces a revolutionary boat class, combining America’s Cup hydrofoiling, Formula One electric drivetrains, and aerospace flight control. Hydrofoils lift the hull, reducing drag by over 90% and dramatically extending range. This technology promises to revolutionize maritime transport with improved comfort, quiet operation, and zero wake.
