The pace at which technology is advancing is incredible, and is increasing exponentially. From the stone tool to the Apple Watch, new conveniences compound with one another, integrate and as a whole work to bring about newer technology. Like the evolutionary process, this can involve punctuated equilibrium. For example the advent of the microprocessor rapidly accelerated the evolution of computing. But there have been other giant technological leaps, and to learn more about them I spoke with Joe Magno, Executive Director of the North Carolina Center of Innovation Network (NC COIN).
