They cover topics across the new mobility ecosystem and already have invited inspirational thought leaders from the mobility sector to share their visions, products, successes, and setbacks. A really great interview they have done recently is with Ozgur Tohumcu CEO of Oxbotica around the actual and honest status quo of autonomous mobility. https://wundermobility.podigee.io/ Future of Mobility: The Future of Mobility podcast is focused on the development and implementation of safe, sustainable, and equitable mobility solutions, with a focus on the people and technology advancing these fields. https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandonbartneck/ http://brandonbartneck.com/futureofmobility/ Music credit: Slow Burn Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License
