The company is one of the biggest Polish software development companies. With 20 years of experience and over 800 people on board, the firm is fully capable of talking about the current state of software development, COVID-19 outbreak, and the future. The industry\u2019s, as well as the company\u2019s alone.<\/p><p id=\"8e20\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">Jaros\u0142aw \u015aci\u015blak:<\/strong>\u00a0Please finish the sentence \u2014 The future is\u2026<\/p><p id=\"b377\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">Pawe\u0142 Pustelnik:<\/strong>\u00a0Future Processing, of course! (laughing) Seriously, though \u2014 it\u2019s very hard to predict. We are faced with a hard lesson, coming from COVID-19. Not everything is written in stone, not everything is easily predictable. You can\u2019t always prepare for that. But one thing is for sure \u2014 technology has rapidly entered the human domain and is here to stay. It\u2019s unavoidable. At FP, we believe that the future will be based on data and its relevance. The ability to sort it out and find out the answers is the crucial element of today\u2019s and tomorrow\u2019s business.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">The technology will come out of its spawning pool \u2014 it will be a large part of human life<\/strong>. Tech is supporting human performance and enhancing life\u2026 It\u2019s already a big theme, tomorrow it will become a big reality.<\/p><p id=\"83e3\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">The challenge with this \u2014 we don\u2019t know where it leads. Let\u2019s add artificial intelligence (AI) to the mix, and we have a set of exciting but fairly unpredictable ingredients. Me alone and the industry as a whole think about relevance and pacing. Do we necessarily need all of that? At what cost? Shouldn\u2019t we take a breath and take control of the future before it controls us? Future Processing believes that technology can change the world for the better, and our lives can be more accessible. We can save time and spend it with loved ones. At the same time, technological achievements should not dictate who we are and what we do. Everything needs balance.<\/p><p id=\"fdb6\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: If the future is so unpredictable, and it\u2019s hard to know what developments can make or break us, what role Future Processing will play in it?

We can take it many ways and talk about products, that directly impact the quality of life. But we can also talk about healthcare, where solutions like\u00a0<a class=\"au yl\" href=\"https:\/\/sensai.eu\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener ugc nofollow\">Sens.AI<\/a>\u00a0save lives. This is the system for automating brain scan analysis via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The Sens.AI is our own, innovative solution that we deeply believe in. The scale of outliers is pretty big here. We have also worked on advanced systems for fluoroscopy, angiography, and the statistical analysis of medical images used in hospitals, universities, and laboratories. These were based on\u00a0<a class=\"au yl\" href=\"https:\/\/www.future-processing.com\/client\/feedback-medical\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener ugc nofollow\">machine learning<\/a>\u00a0techniques.<\/p><p id=\"bf36\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Today we see the strong demand for that kind of software, but the reality can surprise us, and we will pivot. Some analysts predict AI-based software development shortly, which puts us out of work for good. But what about quality? What about the human element? Ability to understand the business need, similar culture, business values, delivery, and quality control? Can AI do all that? The future is uncertain, but we\u2019re hopeful. I would rather talk about what comes next and what\u2019s within our grasp. The history of the economy shows that the most significant shifts come suddenly. What we can do is to prepare and gain unique human competencies.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">The secret sauce is creativity<\/strong>. FP is fortunate in that department; we are good at attracting and growing creative talents. Our software developers can translate code into something valuable for clients.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6f81ef5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6f81ef5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg.jpeg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NDQ1MCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3NvZGFwbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjBcLzA5XC8xX1F6dEdxRXc4bzhpNXZmV0NNUHpwamcuanBlZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-1024x654.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4450\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-1024x654.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-600x383.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-300x192.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-768x491.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-1536x981.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_QztGqEw8o8i5vfWCMPzpjg-2048x1308.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">20 years on the market, over 800 people<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed0a9c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ed0a9c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p id=\"ba9d\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: Let\u2019s talk about it for a second. Humanization of technology and software development, in particular, is a widely spread trend. It\u2019s visible in content, user experience, and user interface (UX\/UI), icons, graphics. Future Processing is a big company, yet you emphasize the human approach. How do you do that correctly, what products are proof of that approach?<\/p><p id=\"8db6\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">PP<\/strong>: I feel like we can talk about a few levels. What is unique about Future Processing and what we are proud of is our company culture. We always bet on the chemistry between people. We want them to feel alive in the hallways, be happy to come and work on products. If they feel and observe the change, they grow and deliver even higher value.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">Mutual trust is everything. Clients trust us with the business, the team trust the colleague to bring an A-game every single time<\/strong>. The ability to create a healthy work environment was always on the top of my list as a managing director and I think it\u2019s working.<\/p><p id=\"800a\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">A direct line between a creative environment and a successful product is, naturally, not straight at all. The approach needs consistency and constant growth. But yes, it\u2019s working and we have proofs of that. GetFlow for example is our own IP utilized in energy distribution or water supply. We save money and help save human lives. By optimizing processes, the water usage is lower than before, by supporting software with AI we can search for cancer.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">Translating company culture into great products isn\u2019t always easy but yes \u2014 it can be done.<\/strong><\/p><p id=\"6636\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Money isn\u2019t everything, there are a lot of ways to make money.

What fuels this creativity of yours?<\/p><p id=\"9b4c\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">PP<\/strong>: It begins with scale. We have teams of eight to twelve people. Small enough to communicate, pivot, and deliver quickly, big enough to deliver at all. Cooperation with the client is also crucial.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">Clients usually tell us what they need, leaving \u2018how\u2019 entirely to us. That\u2019s the occasion for creative and often nonstandard solutions<\/strong>. Two-week sprints for eight to twelve people are more than enough to talk things through and process them in a way that is optimal for the product itself. Teams are fully independent and act on what they want to deliver, rather than what has to be done. We also don\u2019t run from challenges and mistakes. It\u2019s important to tackle them on the floor, during sprints. Discuss what went wrong, what can be improved, etc. The culture of open communication is key. We could create processes and rules talking about the necessity of communication but I think they are expandable.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">People actually want to talk to each other! They feel safe, respected, and heard<\/strong>. That approach crosses over to clients \u2014 Product Owners like to listen to Future Processing\u2019s feedback, suggestions of improvement, etc.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bd8ece0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bd8ece0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q.jpeg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NDQ1MSwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3NvZGFwbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjBcLzA5XC8xX2RxZmxtYmRtUTV0SmFnanpzUHZXM1EuanBlZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-1024x683.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4451\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_dqflmbdmQ5tJagjzsPvW3Q-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Company culture drives FP every day<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ed1102 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2ed1102\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p id=\"9c6a\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>.

We wanted more. With a couple of friends, he decided on coming back to Poland and starting a software development company. The UK market is, by the way, still an important part of our revenue. I guess long relationships and a little bit of quality doesn\u2019t hurt (laughing). The company started from humble beginnings. We operated on recommendations, happy clients brought more clients, and foundations were built. We had to learn everything \u2014 things like strategy, marketing, and the role of company culture, that is so beneficial today. Jarek quickly understood that culture could be a significant differentiating factor and strongly bet on it. Strategies evolved, culture stayed the same. We took different routes when it comes to getting clients and making software, but this was constant.<\/p><p id=\"fc4d\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">What are FP\u2019s current goals?

In fact, Poland has the best specialists in the world. Don\u2019t take my word for it, ask the clients. Business and product value in Poland is higher than in traditional outsourcing destinations. Future Processing can still educate the market about that. We want to increase our presence in the UK market, and expand in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), which has enormous needs. Lengthy traditions of working with the entire world (like in London) coupled with growing needs (like in DACH) seems to be our natural direction for the moment.<\/p><p id=\"213e\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: You talked a lot about a culture and its impact.

Some analytics and I don\u2019t say they\u2019re necessarily right, link e-commerce boom of 2003 and 2004 with SARS epidemic. Alibaba grew, Starbucks had to pivot. What role AI will play in the post-COVID-19 world?<\/p><p id=\"de0e\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">PP<\/strong>: I don\u2019t think that COVID-19 will have such relevance and stimulate the growth of AI. I can say what we had observed. Clients will often say to us that they need a machine learning and AI to boost their processes. To be exact \u2014 they think they need it. Companies often have a lot of data to go through, sort, and understand.\u00a0<strong class=\"ki jk\">Managers believe that by implementing artificial intelligence, things will magically appear and help them in daily operations. It doesn\u2019t work that way. The solution is fairly simple \u2014 we need to create a structure for the data, to make sense out of it<\/strong>. As a software provider, we can offer a tool or even a set of tools for transparency. If the data can be understood by computers, it can be understood by human beings. This process alone sorts all kinds of problems. Artificial intelligence sounds nice but to be honest, it can be implemented only for several specific cases, where we know clients will actually benefit from it. It\u2019s not a magic wand. COVID-19 alone influenced managers in a way that made them think about processes more and software that can help them out. Yes, AI is a topic but we try to steer clients in a little different direction. Structured data help make better decisions. Good data, good choices, better business. That\u2019s the key.<\/p><p id=\"355a\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: Would you then say that the topic of artificial intelligence is an artificially created solution?

What\u2019s true is true, though \u2014 people are focused mainly on flashy examples like big e-commerce companies or streaming services. Their systems of analyzing buying processes and tools for suggesting the next interesting piece of content are not going to work for every other business out there. Many people see only poster boys for AI, including these examples, and maybe autonomous vehicles as well. These are not good for many everyday needs.<\/p><p id=\"db78\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: If it\u2019s not AI, then maybe machine learning?

We can feed algorithms with data and force them to make the right decisions. A good example would be our client that has a large fleet of excavators. Based on their predicted levels of fuel consumption, with predicted wear and tear, we could save the company a significant amount of money.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3e8c4e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3e8c4e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw.jpeg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NDQ1MywidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3NvZGFwbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjBcLzA5XC8xX29PRzF4bzM0dmV0S0FWNm56REZTUHcuanBlZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-1024x683.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4453\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_oOG1xo34vetKAV6nzDFSPw-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Creativity comes from people \u2014 invest in them!<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eae5096 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eae5096\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p id=\"308b\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: Future Processing is based in Gliwice.

The culture of working from offices had to change rapidly. Managers and their teams had to adapt to face new challenges. Suddenly remote work was not only possible but efficient when it needed to be. Software development can be hybrid, and some people work from the office, some from home. Meeting clients in the office was out of the question. They learned that virtual meetings also work, and it can be done without the loss to the project. Some people are even more productive, without all the noises coming from the teams around them. Managers start to realize that crisis, coupled with the necessity to innovate and remote work, should result in new projects. That\u2019s good for us.<\/p><p id=\"1ae3\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: It all comes back to the company\u2019s culture.

Yes, we already worked that way but still \u2014 empty offices are not something we were used to. Why was it possible? We were prepared technically; everything was already in place. In some cases, we helped by buying LTE modems, etc. but that were individual cases. I believe the most important lesson that we all can draw from all this, is that responsibility drives it all. Polish people were mostly very responsible during the pandemic, the streets were empty. As a company, we thought about our employees and ways they can continuously deliver value to clients. That\u2019s why additional spending on hardware and software but we like to think of that in the investment category.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e1eea50 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e1eea50\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ.jpeg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NDQ1NCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3NvZGFwbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjBcLzA5XC8xXzk4MVVMMnZwUVQtOGNnS2pPME9OelEuanBlZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-1024x683.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4454\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sodapl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/1_981UL2vpQT-8cgKjO0ONzQ-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Future Processing has several buildings at its disposal<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4e8f9e7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4e8f9e7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p id=\"c5ed\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph kg kh jj ki b kj kk kl km kn ko kp kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld ir ga\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"><strong class=\"ki jk\">J\u015a<\/strong>: There is a heated talk about the possible reindustrialization of the West.

It\u2019s easier when a company already has a digital presence and distribution channels. If not, all have to be built from scratch, and it takes time. There are no half-measures, though. You can\u2019t do e-commerce half time, with one man and little budget. Either you build a solid online platform to sell the goods and support traditional distribution, or not. Those who thought about supplementation instead of a full-fledged channel, lost. If you look at the transportation sector, where few things could and should be implemented or polished, they\u2019ll tell you they don\u2019t have time. The industry sees the need for innovation but doesn\u2019t have the time to focus on that. There\u2019s simply too much work at the time since e-commerce exploded in early March.
