It's not every day when you get to interview someone who helped invent something that has changed so many people's lives. In October, I had the opportunity to talk with Richard Sweeney, co-founder and engineering mastermind behind the development of the K-Cup and Keurig brewing system. He's an interesting guy, and I hope you enjoy my article, which appears in the November issue of COMMERCE Magazine and Commerce Magazine Online.
