Episode 240 That Great Business Show

Geoff Allen, co-founder Mersus Technologies - a VR company (not a training company!) that is changing how we do business in so many sectors. What they do is truly amazing. We know. We've seen their work. Having recently won a place on the Meta app store they're only one click away from 24,000,000 headsets (a number that is about to explode in size). They use gaming software to digitise training. They create a 'virtual twin' of a workplace, a virtual factory. They're passing tacit knowledge (knowledge gained through experience) to incoming staff. They're world leaders in the sector. Their big problem is funding, funding and funding. They're looking for a High Net Worth Individual who knows the bio/pharma space, to join as an investor.

His 'hire in a heartbeats' are Pat McDonagh of SuperMacs and Stephen Grant of Grant Boilers.

Improve your businesses' operational efficiency by 40%. Helen Burke, lead-founder Teambase Ireland, joins That Great Business Show to explain how she does it for the insurance industry and how other industries can learn from her. She has her eye on Ireland and the UK right now, having served her time as a kindergarten teacher (teaching the letter A for three weeks solid wasn't for her) in the Middle East where she came across Teambase. She says the insurance industry is still using Excel, hand written or copy and pasted, taking hours and hours to find insurance solutions. She's taking the donkey work out of this process. Networks are golden she says and she loves her insurance networks around the world.

Her 'hire in a heartbeat' is Jim Campion, that we had on a previous episode of the podcast.
