In this week’s episode of Prospecting Purpose, we’re joined by Andy Reynolds, former naval engineer and Director General of Energy, Mining, and Environment of the National Research Council Canada. He is currently the President of Inspire Resources, a venture aimed at leveraging natural resource development and exponential technologies to support community development and accelerate broad progress on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. In our chat, we discuss how mining can generate social value and accelerate progress for all, especially at the most local of levels, as well as what kinds of unconventional business model approaches and emerging technologies might get us there.
