Lunch lecture Prodrive: Introduction to Rust

Rust is a language that was created to build reliable and efficient software. It is now used by many companies from AWS to Google to Microsoft, and of course including Prodrive Technologies.

This talk will present Rust, what makes it different from other languages and how it can claim to be safe while efficient.

We operate under a healthy ambition to be of relevance, and to contribute to meaningful innovation that tackles major challenges in society. We create technologies that are essential links in the systems which form the basis for today's and tomorrow's world. Our technology, for instance, improves the quality of medical imaging, which allows for diagnostics that recognize diseases earlier and more accurately. Our techniques also contribute to reducing the global dependency on fossil fuels, and to minimizing human exposure to air pollution.
