Nat Geo Explorer: David Lang - Entrepreneur
David Lang is a vivid entrepreneur and
strong supporter of the citizen-driven
science movement.
He spends most of his time in a spacious
storage hall in Berkely quietly building
underwater drones and proving that it is
never too late to change course and follow
your dreams.
David has been a true
inspiration for us and people all over the
world that true exploration is not dead and
amazing things are waiting to be revealed.
And the most wonderful part of that is that
anyone can do it!
