Barriers to Entry is a design innovation podcast on the SURROUND Podcast Network. On each episode, we obsess over the not-too-distant future of the architecture, design and creative industries and the ideas, tools, technologies and talent that will take us there. Hosted by SANDOW DESIGN GROUP Chief Growth Officer Bobby Bonett, and digby co-founder Andrew Lane.
Love is in the air on the pod as the gang celebrates Valentine’s Day and spreads the love by welcoming SVP of Product and recently-appointed Head of Metaverse, at Crate & Barrel, Sebastian Brauer. Bringing together experiences from the worlds of both design and technology, the discussion ranges from the experience of being first to market, the approach Crate & Barrel is taking to learn before they leap, the power of data in design, and more. You’ll love yourself for giving this inspiring conversation a listen.
