De Grote Tech Show | BNR

De Grote Tech Show | BNR treats technology as a force inside boardrooms, politics, markets, and infrastructure. It is less interested in novelty for its own sake than in the conditions that decide whether innovation survives contact with policy, funding, and regulation. Recent episodes show that range clearly. A special election series questions candidate Tweede Kamer members about digital government, startups, scale-ups, R&D, national investment, defense spending, and the business climate for innovative companies. Those conversations do not stop at broad support for innovation. They push into budgets, state debt, procurement choices, ecosystem effects, and the gap between attractive policy language and executable policy. Other episodes widen the frame beyond the Netherlands. SAP's sovereign cloud plans become a test case for how independent cloud infrastructure can be when American technology partners, regulators, cybersecurity agencies, and sensitive customers are all involved. CES becomes a way to ask how the American tech sector thinks about trade tariffs, lighter regulation, AI optimism, healthcare use cases, digital twins, and the more ordinary consumer uses of generative tools. The show also tracks market narratives around Nvidia and OpenAI, while keeping one eye on how digital policy may change after elections. Its style is brisk and skeptical in a practical way. Questions come in layers. If an answer sounds polished, the exchange often circles back through costs, governance, implementation, or who benefits. That makes the program useful for listeners who already follow technology news but want the pressure points made explicit. It is a tech show for people who care about cloud dependency, startup capital, AI adoption, public procurement, cybersecurity, and political competence as much as the next product cycle.
