Climate Tech: Disrupt Or Collaborate? | CTO @ Onto | Ben Brown

Onto is Europe's largest electric car subscription service. For a flat monthly fee, Onto customers get the latest electric cars with insurance, servicing, breakdown cover and free public charging at over 11,000 locations across the UK.

In this episode CTO of Onto, Ben Brown, talks us through his journey at Onto and taking on the CTO position, discussing the challenges and adjustments that come with it.

Ben then dives into what it was like to join a business that had previously struggled to invest in its tech team and how he went about scaling it. We also cover the challenges around developing a single market product as well as the challenges that come with having a physical product.

Finally, Ben discusses the idea of 'disrupting' the market vs. 'collaborating' as a sustainable tech company and the value of creating partnerships for a sustainable future.
