Small inventions that changed the world

from RSA Events · host Dr Jessica Wade, Roma Agrawal

Nails, springs, wheels, magnets and string - these individual wonders have built our modern world. Each component has a long history and is the result of many iterations and refinements. Together, they have enabled humanity to see the invisible, build the spectacular and communicate across vast distances. Join award-winning engineer and broadcaster Roma Agrawal as she deconstructs our most complex feats of engineering into seven fundamental inventions that have changed our lives - and our societies - in dramatic ways.#RSAinventionsBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/udI9xDonate to The RSA: https://utm.guru/udNNBFollow RSA Events on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rsa_events/Follow the RSA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/RSAEventsLike RSA Events on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rsaeventsofficialJoin our Fellowship: https://www.thersa.org/fellowship/join
