With it being so reliant on that large ecosystem, it is important to know what to do to grow that ecosystem and build up the next generation. Building the next generation not only provides value to the future of automation, but also provides value to those currently in the field. Working with the next generation brings new perspective, room for growth and more resources for the company to draw from. Investing in the future generation is also investing in the company and its current workforce.
