On this episode of [APM On Air](https://blog.nexusglobal.com/tag/podcast), we have Ryan Chan, CEO & Founder of [UpKeep](https://www.onupkeep.com/), on the show to discuss how COVID-19 will continue to impact maintenance and reliability. Larry and Ryan share what companies/industries will survive the new norm and how embracing digitalization and [sophisticated technology](https://www.nexusglobal.com/software) will bring positive change to our post COVID world.

Want to learn why maintenance and reliability should be seen as value-add to a business, rather than a necessary evil? Check out the episode of [Masterminds in Maintenance](https://www.onupkeep.com/blog/mim_s2_e4/) where the tables are turned and Ryan interviews Larry on his podcast series.
