Yet, another inspiring encounter with the great Sandy Munro, of Munro & Associates, and with their activities in product design, engineering and manufacturing solutions, that has revolutionized industries over decades.

In this episode, we hear Sandy Munro emphasizing the importance of manufacturing, and the profound knowledge it carries, and in a geo-political context of United States, Europe and China in particular. And the wisdoms shared are not few - remarkable to hear about the story with Toyoda-san on “where there is arrogance, there is opportunity” - and much more!

I can recall since the early days of my industrial experiences, as a student doing internships, and working in final assembly of car manufacturing. I learnt so much, and manufacturing and fabrication has been a backbone since then. There were times when arrogance of management, did not allow me to harvest the profound knowledge from manufacturing.

These days, the sentiments are to have a stronger inhouse control of the vertical value chain, it is back to the origins of what Mr. Ford once set up, and mimicked by many founders, CEOs and companies to various success.

A big thank you to Sandy, a giant in the product engineering and manufacturing space, and ready to share own knowledge with others…

Time passes by at close to warp speed, or at least quickly enough…a few years back Matt was a guest in the podcast, and now he is back - as a British GT Champion!

Obviously with a lot more experience under his belt, we talked about racing, and the similarities with entrepreneurship. He actually is both - a true racing driver, but also an entrepreneur. So how do we get past the next bend, and as quickly as possible?

Matt is still pursuing his dream goal… listen to the podcast to learn more and to go fast!

I always enjoy the very engaging and insightful discussions with Eric, a passionate entrepreneur in the carbon capture space. And this podcast interview is no exception! Thank you Eric, for such enjoyable time to discuss how we can accelerate and scale-up carbon capture, both for small and large emitters.

I’ve had the great opportunity to meet and talk with Kenneth Juul many times over the past years, as we are involved in their first carbon capture project Rakkestad here in Norway.

Carbon capture has been a focus on the larger point emitters to lead the way, but is there a path forward for the small emitters to find solutions to decarbonize their operations?

Here at least, is a good example. And what can we do to scale it up - listen to the podcast to learn more.

And thank you Kenneth for the engaging discussion!
