Today, Michael joins us to discuss how Indio works and why agencies should use their services. He shares his experience of moving from one place to another, multiple times, and how they affected his attitude towards life and his career choices. He explains why he chose to work in the financial industry and why he eventually transitioned to insurance. Michael also describes why software will be at the forefront of disruption for years to come.

“Disruption doesn’t necessarily happen directly, and it doesn’t necessarily happen by adopting a value chain-based business model.”
