b'In today\\u2019s episode, we are joined by Michael Filippakis, CEO and co-founder of Loris!

Michael\\u2019s passion for construction began when he was a child, helping his own father to renovate their house, before later deciding to study Construction Management at Ohio State University.

After graduating, Michael worked for Turner for over a decade in a number of roles. Michael also worked on Ohio State Campus Hospital, a $600 million project, which was the largest in Ohio State History at the time.

But in 2018, Michael started Loris to help build a leaner, safer, and greener job site for everyone.

Today we discuss his background, what Loris does, as well as the latest construction news of the week.
