“My definition is that geo-enlightenment is understanding the interconn...” — Jack Dangermond Quote

My definition is that geo-enlightenment is understanding the interconnectedness of things.

It takes a while for executives to understand that every company is a spatial company, fundamentally: where are our assets, where are our customers, where are our sales. But when they get it, they light up and say, 'I want to get the geographic advantage.'
