Join us as we speak with robotics engineer and entrepreneur, Brad Kriel. In this episode Brad and Spencer trade stories about what it's like to work in an advanced Research and Development group within a large corporation vs working in smaller companies and startups.
This is made more interesting by the fact that Brad and Spencer worked at Caterpillar and Joy Mining simultaneously as robotics engineers. We look at the culture and risk profile of the mining industry, as well as some clever "blocking strategies" that Caterpillar used to make it more difficult for Joy Mining to compete with them.
We take an honest view of the good, the bad, and the ugly of starting a product or service company from scratch, and we tell stories about our past, present, and future endeavors. Brad is a very intelligent guy and an excellent storyteller so don't miss this episode.
Please subscribe for more inside perspectives into the bleeding edge of science, technology, and entrepreneurship.
