Founder Series #3 ft. Michael Brown: "Never allow anyone to tell you that you can't get it done"
Manage episode 389207310 series 3525892
Welcome to the third episode of the PropTech Talks - Founder Series. In this episode, we turned our attention to a visionary leader, Michael Brown, who is currently leading Skyline Robotics as the company’s chairman and CEO.
Michael's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Since the age of 12, Michael followed his father’s business closely by helping with invoicing and attending board meetings. From working with Al Gore straight after his degree in Information Technology, to capitalising on emerging trends in the coffee industry, acquiring about 60 companies, and building the largest privately held independent company for office supplies, Michael is a living example of the advantages of “never allowing anyone to tell you that you can't get it done” and “surrounding yourself with people who are smarter than you and trusting them to make your business better”.
Today, Michael is the CEO of Skyline Robotics, the world's first at-heights industrial automation company. Originally founded in Israel, Skyline Robotics grew a presence in the US and is currently focussed on expanding to the UK, starting with London.
In this episode, Michael uncovered the strategies to propel businesses to the forefront of the industry, competing with established businesses, and effectively reinventing your business while recognising the opportunities of the future.
