Stefanos Zenios, Stanford GSB professor and Ken Favaro, MBA '83 developed an innovation methodology called ‘precedents thinking.’ In their new article in the Harvard Business Review, they open with how Henry Ford developed his revolutionary motor company using a similar method.
In this podcast produced by Stanford Seed, an institute at Stanford Graduate School of Business, Ethan Mollick, Wharton School professor of innovation and entrepreneurship, and Arun Jagannathan, two-time entrepreneur discuss incorporating AI in your business strategy.
Stanford researchers find resistance to climate action has become a global movement that strengthens after governments implement climate-related policies.
Senior fellows at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR) identify some of the potential impacts that often get overlooked in policy discussions for the new administration's ambitions for the U.S. economy.
A new partnership between the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability's Precourt Institute for Energy and the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center, called STEER, assesses the technological and economic potential of emerging energy technologies. STEER evaluated more than 6,000 scenarios to test the robustness of their roadmaps for sodium-ion batteries’ competitive potential.
Recycling lithium-ion batteries to recover their critical metals has significantly lower environmental impacts than mining virgin metals, according to a new Stanford University lifecycle analysis published in Nature Communications. On a large scale, recycling could also help relieve the long-term supply insecurity – physically and geopolitically – of critical battery minerals.
Stanford’s membership in a new national consortium, the National Semiconductor Technology Center (NSTC) will aid researchers in developing the next generation of chips essential for electronics, says electrical engineer H.-S. Philip Wong.
This brief from the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence presents a novel assessment framework for evaluating the quality of AI benchmarks and scores 24 benchmarks against the framework. This work aims to offer practical insights and proposes a rigorous framework that empowers developers to assess and enhance benchmark quality.
Marlowe, a state-of-the art GPU-based computational instrument is a “superpod” comprised of 248 Nvidia H100 GPUs. The university will invest $30 million to purchase hardware, recruit a team of research data scientists, support Marlowe’s operational needs, and facilitate collaboration opportunities – all important to get the most out of Marlowe in a rapidly evolving field.
In a new study by the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center, scientists found that the batteries of electric vehicles subject to the normal use of real-world drivers could last about a third longer than researchers have generally forecast. This suggests that the owner of a typical EV may not need to replace the expensive battery pack or buy a new car for several additional years.
