It’s the first episode of Season 04 & we’re back with the usual problem - how to condense 25+ years experience running a simulation business into a single episode. We fail (as usual) but it still makes for an interesting show.
In this episode I’m talking with Eric Miller, one of founding team of PADT – an expert simulation consultancy which first opened its doors 25 years ago this year.
Eric shares his thoughts on:
- migrating from an internal research group at a large company to an autonomous small business
- the evolution of their computing from SGI Octane through the Pentium revolution and on into the cloud
- whether the current crop of open-source tools make commercial software a harder sell?
- where the simulation “low-hanging fruit” has gone & how consultants need to be extracting higher value from their simulation tools
- building the kind of business where it’s a pleasure to come to work in the morning
