Discovery Series

Each year, the Hopkins Bloomberg Center will host a Discovery Series of events featuring deep and insightful conversations on a single topic at the intersection of tech, science, and public policy. The inaugural series, jointly presented by Johns Hopkins University and Vox Media, focused on artificial intelligence and featured a four-part interview series with veteran tech reporter Kara Swisher. The fourth event will take place in December 2025.

For the next installment, Johns Hopkins is partnering with SpaceNews to host discussions that examine the geopolitical, commercial, scientific, and security dimensions of space.
