Big tech is transforming every aspect of our world. But how, and at what cost? This season of Land of the Giants – The Disney Dilemma – focuses on Disney’s ability to weather the ups and downs of the business cycle and changing tastes and explores what has kept it successful for over 100 years.

This week we’re flying high with the Irish drone delivery company Manna.
Its founder and chief executive is Bobby Healy, who joined host Ciarán Hancock in studio to discuss what he believes is Manna’s massive growth potential.
Set up in 2019, Manna only recently began generating revenues and is yet to turn a profit. It is currently flying nine drones in Dublin 15 and has made more than 170,000 deliveries in Ireland so far.
It has another eight drones operating outside Ireland.
But that is just the tip of the iceberg.
You’ll hear Bobby’s ambitious plans for expansion into the United States and the Nordic countries and how it would need 45,000 drones just to serve the UK market.
And he wants to manufacture all of those drones in Ireland.
It’s a cash hungry company with plans to raise many millions of dollars from investors but Healy is thinking big and believes Manna can become Ireland’s biggest corporate success story.
Of course, not everyone is delighted by having drone deliveries in their areas and Healy addresses some of those complaints in the interview.
An engaging entrepreneur, Healy has previously sold three travel tech companies. So, he has form in this space.
Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
