As part of the celebrations to mark the 60th anniversary of the historic visit of President John F. Kennedy to Ireland, the John F. Kennedy Library hosted a public programme in the Trinity Business School, entitled ‘JFK Moonshot: Reimagining Human Potential and Progress’ 

Speaking at the event, Linda talked about the profound impact that JFK’s Moonshot had on humanity’s perception of itself and the environment. She also discussed the ever-growing need for interdisciplinarity in the innovation space, and Trinity’s role in achieving that.  

The event included a discussion on the rate of technological acceleration between Irish entrepreneur, Patrick Collison and  Lant Pritchett, Visiting Professor at the London School of Economics.
