On this episode, Ethan sits down with his friend and MAGNET Board Member, Kevin Johnson who is quietly transforming companies all over Northeast Ohio with Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing as Managing Partner at NexGen Interactive. Kevin explains why it’s no longer enough “just” to lead in smart manufacturing, why he's personally betting big on EV smart chargers and robots, and how he's using the power of philanthropy and diversity to change the future of manufacturing.
