Technology & Business Rundown Podcast #68 - How Field experience can drive technology innovation

Coming up with a million dollar product idea - is easier than coming up with million dollar product idea that is based on solving a real world problem that will allow that idea to actually succeed.

In this podcast, Dave Erickson and his co-host Botond Seres are going to examine How Field Experience Can Drive Technology Innovation - with John Downing - Co-Founder & Chief Product Architect of Leteligence.

John is the co-founder of Lateligence and founder of Latel, and he began his career in heavy civil construction, operating equipment and later working as a civil estimator manually calculating dirt quantities. 

That firsthand experience led him to invest early in high‑end drone technology, long before it was common, and grew Latel into a nationwide LIDAR service helping contractors uncover change orders and optimize dirt movement. 

Today, as Chief Product Architect, he’s leading the development of new AI‑enabled software built from the ground up for field users, already deployed by national developers and major contractors. 

John brings a rare blend of practical field insight, technical vision, and a deep commitment to empowering the people doing the work on the ground.
