Anthony Bramante - Modernizing Municipal Control Systems at In Control - Ep.225 Think Like an Owner
-
- Inversiones
Ep.225: Alex (@aebridgeman) is joined by Anthony Bramante (@AnthonyBramante).
My guest today is Anthony Bramante who leads In Control, an automation control systems integrator primarily serving water and wastewater facilities at small and medium-sized towns across the Northern Midwest. Control systems aren’t exactly top of mind for me every day, but after chatting with Anthony I’m seeing them everywhere and realizing how integral they are to our daily lives.
Anthony and I talk about example control systems, the importance of cybersecurity and how vulnerable our water infrastructure truly is, how add-on acquisitions play into their growth strategy, recruiting from college campuses, and designing effective internship programs.
