Episode 37: The one about electric tuktuks
Manage episode 366897585 series 3300408
ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Mobility for all means just that - it shouldn't be available only to those fortunate enough to be free of the physical or financial impairments that might prevent access to mobility. Yet one billion people - an eighth of the world's population - survive on less than $2/day. They desperately need electric power - and affordable personal mobility.
- Dr Chris Borroni-Bird, founder of Afreecar LLC
- Prodip Chatterjee, co-founder of Nunam
- Sukhjeevan Uppal, Chief Technology Officer at eTukTuk
- Next-generation tuktuks - and more, including bicycles and handcarts;
- Electrifying mobility in emerging markets;
- Developing affordable vehicles;
- New mobility business models - including the use of blockchain;
- And the role that could be played by used electric vehicle batteries.
Dr Chris Borroni-Bird, founder of Afreecar LLC, has developed advanced vehicle concepts and technology at General Motors, Qualcomm, and the Google Self-Driving Project that became Waymo. His latest project, Afreecar, is a philanthropic initiative which seeks to provide affordable mobility to people in Africa who can't afford a car
