In this episode of the Opening Bell Podcast, we speak with Steve Orenstein, Founder and CEO of Locate Technologies.

Steve shares the early story of Locate Technologies, from identifying a simple problem to building a platform now used by businesses worldwide. We talk about the process of developing a business, from attracting customers, to getting feedback, to promoting the end product.

We also explore Locate’s move from the ASX to the NZX and the thinking behind becoming the first NZX-listed company to adopt a Bitcoin treasury strategy. Steve explains why he believes Bitcoin will play a meaningful role in the company’s future and how it fits into their approach to technology and value.
