Robin covers:Layoffs sadly.Callum digs into:Tech.eu's tracking of smart building tech and some interesting funding rounds in the space.Cate featured:Berlin's Tomorrow Biostasis, a startup that's working on cryopreservation and how death might not be the final chapter for us humans.Dan lays down:Quantum computing player Pasqal announced a raise of €100 million in a Series B round this week, and how they're planting a flag for Paris in the home-of-quantum ground.And Cate and Dan pedal:Things aren't looking so great for Amsterdam-based developer and designer of urban e-bikes VanMoof.This and a whole lot more on this week's episode of the Drive at Five!
