GRP 180-Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings: My Conversation with Nick Smith The Founder Of Geo Owl

Army veteran and founder of Geo Owl, Nick Smith, discusses the growing importance of geospatial intelligence across various industries, including healthcare, farming, and elite intelligence operations.

The podcast delves into the potential risks of allowing Chinese companies access to the US market and the need for strong leadership to address the issue and prevent future conflicts. 

We discussed various use cases for geospatial intelligence, including the war in Ukraine and the services provided by Geo Owl. Tune in.
