KAKU DROVE i-ROAD AT TED 2015

Dr. Michio Kaku made a special appearance at the world famous 2015 TED Conference in Vancouver, Canada yesterday, as the invited guest of TOYOTA. Kaku’s visit started not at a lectern, but at the wave of a checkered flag, as he took the wheel at TOYOTA‘s I DROVE i-ROAD exhibit.

The i-ROAD is a new concept in urban mobility that combines the potential of both cars and motorbikes with next generation performance in terms of driving, size and environmental performance.

The evening culminated in a themed VIP event, presented by TOYOTA, entitled ‘HOW WE’LL LIVE IN 2100’ featuring a private talk by Dr. Kaku, accompanied by a special dinner prepared by food futurist and celebrity chef, Richard Blais.
