Battery fires are becoming a growing problem in New York City. What can we do about it?

While batteries have fueled the e-mobility-enabled rise of delivery apps like Doordash, they often exist in black market, underregulated spaces, where fires are common. But what if you disintermediated the system, by offering shared batteries swappable at a moment's notice?

That's the model of PopWheels. "Stop charging, start swapping". Fast Forward host Nick Perloff-Giles sits down with Co-Founder David Hammer to discuss the company's success in moving towards a shared, safer battery future.

“Why should a one-pound burrito be in a 10,000-pound car?...”

Eric Garcetti, former mayor of Los Angeles, on :

set the direction nearly ten years ago, and that work is still rolling out across the city.

LAX is now being modernized, electric delivery is expanding, eVTOLs are entering the skies, and new tunneling projects are moving forward.

Every project stayed in its own lane. Nobody planned how it all fits together.

2028 can be a moment of imagination, not because we need more technology, but because we finally need to connect neighborhoods and systems, with real public commitment behind it.

The Olympics aren’t just about putting on a show — they’re a test of whether a city can improve life for the people who live inside it.
