Howdy, Ags! Today, we are joined by George Voneiff and Michael Gatens of MGV Energy Inc. MGV was the very first Aggie 100 winner from 2005! We have an exciting 2 part conversation with George and Michael about their time operating out of Calgary, Alberta in Canada. They drop some knowledge on how the work ethic in Canada helped them adapt and how they built a tight culture over the past 20 years inside of MGV Energy.

If you enjoyed today’s episode, stay tuned for part 2 next week! Also please take a moment to leave us a 5-star review and connect with Chris and Greg on LinkedIn!
