Title: Recent Progress on the Grothendieck Programme

Abstract: During this lecture I will present some recent results in the Grothendieck programme. In particular, after discussing historical work and some milestones in the programme, I will state a counterexample to a matricial Grothendieck theorem, answering a question of Blecher, Pisier, and Shlyakhtenko.
