Each month we’ll publish a new story written by Steven Johnson, the bestselling author of 13 books, the host of the PBS/BBC series Extra Life and How We Got to Now, regular contributor to The New York Times Magazine. Steven has written for Wired, The Guardian and The Wall Street Journal.

At Netguru, we truly believe that software can change the world. We strive to support visionaries and innovators on their journeys to deliver revolutionary digital products. But their and our work would not be possible if not for the engineers and designers who over the past decades have made seemingly small discoveries that are now omnipresent in our everyday life.

Hidden Heroes is a tribute to innovators who set the foundations on which we build vital solutions for the modern world. Their inventions make the world run, but their stories remain hidden. Until now. Hidden Heroes uncovers unexpected connections between great human stories and technologies and ideas that are widespread public phenomena today.
