#161 – Gaurav Batra on why the Industrial Tech Sector is misunderstood

Gaurav Batra is an Ex-Partner at McKinsey & Company. During his 13 years with the world-renowned consultancy firm Guarav co-led their Advanced Electronics Practice in the Americas. Prior to joining McKinsey, Gaurav worked as a senior business manager of corporate development with Capital One, a leading diversified financial services company in the United States. Earlier this year Gaurav co-authored The Titanium Economy, which looked into the industrial tech sector. The book puts forward the idea that manufacturing is an under-appreciated and under-valued sector of the economy. 

On this week’s episode Gaurav and Maria discuss: 

  • The impact manufacturing had on his early career  
  • His key takeaways from writing The Titanium Economy  
  • How to make working in manufacturing more appealing 
  • Why manufacturing enables sustainability 
  • The future opportunities and challenges the industry will face
