Keller Rinaudo Cliffton on Zipline's Drone Delivery Journey from Blood to Burritos

A few weeks ago, I went out to Zipline’s test facility in Half Moon Bay, California for a dinner and to see their delivery drones in action. I was not expecting much. It feels like we’ve been promised delivery drones for years and years. And, in fact, we have. These visions of the future don’t always arrive on schedule, but the delivery drones were feeling extra tardy. I also wasn’t even sure if delivery drones made that much sense. Drones run loud. They could obviously crash into things. It’s hard to imagine a sky full of these aircraft working that well. During the dinner, though, Zipline pulled off a sneak attack maneuver and plopped some cookies down right beside me without me noticing the drone at all. The technology was quiet and precise, and it made me want to learn more - which is why we’re bringing you Keller Rinaudo Cliffton, the company’s co-founder and CEO, on this latest podcast.
