Farmers face challenges every day and they need brands to deliver solutionsbased products, especially in ag machinery. In order to create reliable, intuitive machinery and technology built for purpose, customer-driven engagement and product development is critical. Hear from Scott as he dives into how farmer involvement in the research and development process delivers purposeful solutions that help make on-farm activities more productive, more efficient and more profitable.

Brett strongly advocates for mental health and wellness and is one of the most sought-after speakers in mental health, performance, and motivation. Gardiner often speaks candidly about his mental health journey, and through his own lived experiences, he works to inspire and educate others to help them live their very best life. Together with his family, the Chase the Good movement was started to encourage humankind to chase what is good in the world.
