That mistake is to obsess over analytics data, without any strategy; to assume that all that needs to be done is to gather as much data as possible, and then this data will magically become knowledge, and knowledge… Read MoreDeliveroo raises $385M in new funding, now valued at 'over $2 Billion'

Sep 23, 8:35PM
Massive opportunities in urban transportation are emerging as the industry transitions from per-vehicle to per-mile economics Growing up, I dreamed of owning cars I would be proud to wax, polish, and cruise around my neighborhood.

Sep 23, 7:34PM
It’s no secret that automakers have shown more interest in startups lately.
