Current by Design.
Technology changes too quickly for accumulated experience alone to remain sufficient. B2 maintains a hands-on research capability so its point of view comes from direct experience as well as industry observation.
Why the Lab exists
Develop enough first-hand understanding to lead from an informed point of view.
B2 works with specialists and solution providers regularly. Direct research helps Brownlee ask better questions, evaluate trade-offs, challenge assumptions, recognize risk, and know where deeper expertise matters.
