Bruce Jeffreys of Dresden Vision
Bruce has started two very successful businesses. The first one is GoGet, the first car sharing company in Australia. Bruce started this way back in 2003 when car sharing wasn’t a big thing like it is today.
Bruce has started two very successful businesses. The first one is GoGet, the first car sharing company in Australia. Bruce started this way back in 2003 when car sharing wasn’t a big thing like it is today.
And the second business is Dresden Vision, an eyewear company. What I found fascinating is they makes glasses from recycled plastics and they are selling it at affordable prices.
There’s so much plastic waste all over the world. And Dresden is turning it into glasses, which is very commonly used.
It was great to hear his story and his vision.
