our roadmap with theirs and identify the common alignment . We had workshops where they listened to what we felt about the strategic vision for the technology in this space , and then we started to deploy solutions at their various mines . They ’ ve been a great partner .”
As for the future , Roberts is clear that one challenge facing MST and the wider industry above all others is sustainability . “ It ’ s incumbent upon all of us to accept the reality of global warming and to do something about it . What I seek for MST is to ask : ‘ how do we address sustainability ?’ How do we bring youth into the discussion and get their feedback on how we can improve the business ? To me , that ’ s probably the most important external factor that we have to address in a meaningful way .” While there ’ s a long way to go , MST is on the path and encourages fellow industry members to do the same . “ It ’ s a journey of a thousand steps , but you ’ ve got to make that first one .”
