In this episode, host Ron Nussbaum interviews Aleksandr "Alex" Gampel, co-founder of Cuby, a company that designs and deploys mobile micro factories to manufacture and assemble homes. Alex discusses Cuby's mission to increase construction efficiency and reduce the industry's reliance on skilled labor.
About Alex
I believe skills can be taught–personality is innate. That is my best attribute. I care little about awards or racing to the top. I just want to do work that is of interest to me and adds positive value to the world. I seek knowledge and accept challenges with a smile. My appetite and aptitude lie in business, but my background as an engineer empowers me to solve problems with a creative twist. I BUILT A REPUTATION FOR FIGURING IT OUT.
Currently, I'm investing in unique opportunities across the real estate sector and technology. I'm also working on a new company.
I hold a B.S. in both Business and Engineering with a concentration in Finance from Drexel University. However, my pursuit of knowledge through books will never cease.
If you can’t find me, there is a good chance I am outside with family and friends, running, cycling, snowboarding, or planning my next excursion to a foreign country. Also, I am slightly obsessed with Ted Talks (my favorite being – How to Sound Smart In Your TEDx Talk by Will Stephen).
