In this episode, we talk to Anton Howes, historian-in-residence at The Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce and author of "Arts and Minds: How the Royal Society of Arts Changed a Nation." He is also the head of innovation research at The Entrepreneurs Network, a UK-based think tank. We discuss the improving mentality, what we can learn from Britain's 300-year period of technological advancement, why innovators should also be cultural entrepreneurs and how paranoia can spark innovation.
