Emory alumnus Christopher Mims is a technology writer for the Wall Street Journal whose column, ”Keywords,” is an absolute must-read. With swift and exacting prose, Mims unpacks the complexities of the technology sector—explaining everything from ultra-wideband and EV batteries to NFTs and much more. He's also written a book, Arriving Today: From Factory to Front Door, Why Everything Has Changed about How and What We Buy, on one of the biggest issues facing our world today, the global supply chain.

In this episode, Emory University President Gregory L. Fenves talks with Christopher about the supply chain issues that are disrupting the global economy; automation and the complexity of international shipping; the effects of the pandemic on business; and his time as an Emory student studying neuroscience and behavioral biology.
