"Automation will impact every business sector and will be the way for small and medium-sized businesses to survive the workforce crisis," said Dr. Todd Holcomb, president of Hawkeye Community College. "When businesses have the people to innovate, compete, and grow, and when people have the skills and opportunities to put their talent to work, there's no limit to what they can accomplish."
