Michael Kenward OBE is an aged writer with around 50 years before the keyboard investigating the areas where science and technology meet business and just might have some effect on our lives. 

It all started with a physics degree, one the earliest, from Sussex University, followed by three years in the laboratory at Culham Laboratory, home of the UK’s efforts to turn thermonuclear fusion into a working power station.  A brief stint as an editor at the Scientific Instrument Research Association led to a job at the bottom of the ladder at New Scientist magazine as assistant technology editor. In 1990, after 10 years as editor of the magazine, I abandoned the commuter’s treadmill and then worked for anyone who was prepared to buy some words.
