  • Christian Beck - InfoTrack
    Feb 26 2026
    For more than three decades, self-made billionaire Christian Beck has quietly built one of the most dominant vertical software ecosystems in the legal industry.
 He started in 1992 with LEAP Legal Software, transforming clunky, manual law firm workflows into software that became indispensable. 

 Then he created InfoTrack, moving beyond software into the invisible rails of property, court, and government systems. Today, under ATI Global, he controls a tightly woven group of businesses that dominate the sector — all while remaining intensely private.
 This conversation isn’t a standard founder story. It’s a rare glimpse into the mind of someone who has built an entire ecosystem, outmanoeuvred competitors for decades, and done so with discipline, patience, and an obsession for embedding value at the core of an industry.
 We discuss the decisions that made LEAP indispensable, the strategic moves that turned InfoTrack into critical infrastructure, and the philosophy that guides him as he builds for the long game — not for headlines or hype.
 This is a masterclass in strategy, vision, and execution — from one of Australia’s most underrated business architects. Host - Rob Langton Production & Distribution - Ready Media Group #ausbiz #businessnews #richlist #christianbeck #infotrack #theinterview #theinterviewau

  • Chris Lucas - Lucas Collective
    Nov 21 2025
    Chris Lucas stands as one of Australia’s most daring and influential hospitality entrepreneurs — a creator of culture as much as a creator of restaurants. Over the past two decades, he has built a portfolio of iconic venues that consistently reset the benchmark for what dining in Australia can feel like: energetic, design-led, culturally fluent and unapologetically ambitious. As the founder and driving force behind the Lucas Restaurants group, Lucas transformed venues like Chin Chin, Kisumé, Yakimono and Grill Americano into institutions that shape the way people eat, socialise and experience their city. His signature is unmistakable: theatrical concepts, world-class interiors, deep respect for global cuisines, and a relentless focus on service and atmosphere. Lucas is widely regarded as a master of brand-building — each restaurant crafted not just as a place to dine, but as a sensory, high-voltage experience that blends food, music, art, design and cultural storytelling. His influence extends beyond hospitality; he has helped define Melbourne’s identity as one of the world’s great dining capitals while continually pushing the industry forward with scale, innovation and vision. Bold, instinctive and fiercely committed to excellence, Chris Lucas has become a symbol of what modern entrepreneurial hospitality looks like: ambitious, experiential, culturally connected and impossible to ignore. In this exclusive feature profile by Rob Langton & Ready Media Group, Chris takes us on journey inside his World, from what drives his success to how he thinks about his legacy & everything in between.

  • Peter Freedman AM - Røde
    Jul 9 2025
    Peter Freedman AM is the self-made billionaire maverick behind one of Australia’s greatest manufacturing success stories. As the Founder and Chairman of RØDE Microphones, he turned a near-bankrupt family electronics business in 1987 into a global powerhouse—now exporting to over 120 countries, manufacturing everything in Sydney, and used by the world’s leading content creators, filmmakers, musicians, and broadcasters. Bold, driven, and obsessively hands-on, Peter is more than a tech entrepreneur—he’s a fierce advocate for Australian manufacturing, design excellence, and innovation on home soil. He famously reverse-engineered his first microphone in 1990, and never looked back—building vertically integrated factories filled with robots, launching revolutionary products like the VideoMic and RØDECaster, and acquiring global brands like Mackie, Lectrosonics, Aphex and SoundField under the Freedman Group. Awarded Member of the Order of Australia in 2016, and named EY Entrepreneur of the Year in 2014, Peter is as well known for his philanthropy as he is for his products—donating millions to arts, mental health, and design, including a record-breaking purchase of Kurt Cobain’s MTV Unplugged guitar, which he turned into cultural capital for Australia. Blunt, brilliant, and deeply committed to legacy, he’s said: “I’m not a capitalist. I just love winning.” This is a story of grit, reinvention, and building global greatness—out of a suburban factory in Sydney.
