Disruption Drive by Hari Sripathi
Episode notes
Most people see a bus, a bike lane, or a bridge and think about getting from A to B. But my guest Peter Schenkman sees it as the circulatory system of the global economy.
Peter is a titan in the world of urban planning and a leading voice on Mobility as an Economic Engine.
Peter argues that transport isn’t just a public utility; it is the primary driver of social mobility, labor market density, and GDP growth.
When we move people better, we create wealth faster.
Today, we dive into why the most successful cities of the future won't just be the smartest—they'll be the most fluid.
