But we also know there’s a new generation of digital-first leaders who are rewriting the rules. They’re delivering a greener, leaner and more prosperous future for all.

It’s our mission to bring you the stories of these innovators and the secrets behind their success, in one smart weekly briefing.

Five things we learned

Food delivery apps are under fire for ‘exorbitant fees’. Think ordering delivery from your favorite restaurant will save it? Think again. Apps are charging restaurants up to 40%, leading to a class lawsuit.

The batteries inside your airpods made one of Europe’s newest billionaires. Austrian Michael Tojner used to be in the ice-cream business, until he made the smart move into tiny batteries that landed him place on the Forbes billionaires list.

Vertical farming is a hot trend worth $3 billion. Believe the hype: there are already two massive indoor farms in growing food in London, serving restaurants across the city.
