The Backbone: a journey inside finance at a startup

On this episode of The Backbone, I chat with David about: What he attributes to being a part of many technology success stories and the advice he'd impart on finance leaders. The biggest difference between software and hardware technology companies and how it effects the capital raise or acquisition process? What Ecobee is all about, and how it became a global brand in home automation. About his passion towards people and their role in organizations; why its important in scaling organizations and why he cares so deeply about it as the finance leader? The importance of the finance function at a technology company. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/backbone/message
