Comotion Podcast

Greg & Julia open this season’s penultimate episode with a wide-ranging discussion of energy markets, infrastructure spending, Transport for London in trouble, and the running controversy over cities collecting data from transit and micromobility trips. Greg is then joined by Lacuna CEO Hugh Martin to discuss his open source approach to building software for cities, respond to critics of this public-private approach, and speculate on where cities’ digital twins might collide with the corporate Metaverse.
