On today’s edition of the podcast David sits down with Brett McMickell, a tech leader and CTO at Kubota. Kubota is focused on creating purpose-built technology solutions that help tackle a growing labour shortage across sectors like agriculture and construction. Brett discusses the company's approach, why they approach problems from a different, and novel, perspective and reimagine what a solution can look like due to the evolving capabilities of tech.
