They also discuss the business model shift from selling hardware to leasing cleaning-as-a-service, and what that means for margins and total addressable market. If you're following automation beyond the factory floor, this is a concrete look at where the puck is going. #RobotVacuums #CommercialCleaning #BrainCorp #Avidbots #CleaningAsAService #Automation #Robotics #Business #Technology #HardwareStartups #ServiceRobots #RoboticCleaning #AutonomousMobileRobots #AMRs #FloorCleaning #FacilityManagement #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
