EPISODE QUOTES

“Generally speaking, capital allocation and capital strategy should be applied to any part of your business. But what we’re talking about is a segment of business in the orbital market that is maybe underserved when it comes to information like this.” (03:41)

“Capital allocation is the practical implementation of your capital strategy.” (10:29)

“I think increasing the value of your business is what every CEO wants to do. And that can take on many different forms: revenue growth, profit growth. Not all revenue and profits are created equal and that’s something CEOs should understand as well. Value comes in many different shapes and sizes.” (14:39)

“Ya know, the stories that we’ll talk about, it’s not just about capital allocation or capital strategy. It’s as much about that as it is seeing a need in the market and trying to meet that need or seeing how the use of business changes the fabric of society.” (18:01)
