Down To Business

We are joined by founder of Manna Drone Delivery, Bobby Healy. A talented businessman, he kicked off his career building video games for Nintendo, founded Eland Technologies and built CarTrawler. Since 2018, he’s been building Manna whose mission is to improve the world by making lightning-fast suburban deliveries affordable, green and safe.

A panel of travel agents talk to Bobby about how January 2023 has been strong for their industry, looking at new trends since the pandemic. Customers are willing to spend more on holiday packages, with more people opting for cruises than ever before. Paul Hackett, CEO of ClickandGo.com, John Galligan of John Galligan Travel and Mary McKenna the Managing Director of Tour America all share their opinions.

Anna Eliatamby has just published the new "Decency Journey" series of pocketbooks to help people flourish in their careers and workplaces. These compact and practical books support business owners, managers and leaders who want to make positive changes but are not sure where to start. In each of the books, the reader is provided with evidence-based knowledge and practical solutions that they can easily implement. Not only that but each book succinctly covers a different topic.

Bobby has discussed inflation and possible recessions on the show before, but today he talks to economist Cormac Lucey who thinks we are taking too narrow a view.

A new company arriving in Ireland is BRICK- a way to charge your phone when you’re on the go.

Almost the norm for Stockholm residents, di Lucia is confident the company is off to a great start in Ireland.
