The subject of this Talking with Talis Nodalities Podcast is Conrad Wolfram, founder and Managing Director of Wolfram Research Europe.  He is also Strategic and International Director for Wolfram Research, the organisation founded by his brother Stephen, and responsible for Mathematica software and the WolframAlpha Knowledge Engine.

In our wide ranging conversation we look at Conrad’s career, the evolution of Wolfram Research and its role in introducing wider access to computational functionality.   He takes us through the creation of Mathematica by Stephen Conrad and building a company based upon maths.

We move on to discus the WolframAlpha Knowledge Engine, which is built upon Mathematica technology, and how it fits both in to the online world and the Wolfram strategy.  We close having discussed many issues relevant to the evolution and future of the web.
