Imagine ordering food from Door Dash and it’s delivered to your doorstep within minutes, not by a driver, but a drone.

Mike and Yael talk with Mark Hahn (MBA ’20) a career Naval Aviator and previous operations lead for drone start-up company Zipline about the UAV landscape and the pros and cons of using this technology.
