What could Saudi Arabia's futuristic NEOM, the Brooklyn-Queens Tram Project and Toronto's public transit possibly have in common?

Meet 'Adam of Arabia' - Adam Giambrone, MBA, a senior transportation executive with decades of experience in providing innovative transit solutions who's threading the needle between legacy transit and the most forward-looking systems on the globe. Most recently, he was the Director of Urban & Regional Mobility and Head of the NEOM Road Department. Previously, he was the 'streetcar czar' of New York City, heading up an ambitious plan to connect Astoria all the way to Red Hook via streetcar.

Hear from Adam on what we can learn from building a system from the ground up, what's in store for NYCMTA following the collapse of congestion pricing, and how digitization is disrupting the century-old farebox.

Desert Horizons: What Can NEOM Teach Us About the Future of Mobility? with Adam Giambrone

Episode 5. Seleta Reynolds, General Manager of the Los Angeles Department of Transportation, and Greg Lindsay, LA CoMotion's Director of Strategy, chat about what the latest comprehensive regulation of dockless vehicles means for the city of Los Angeles. This new policy encourages companies to innovate, as long as they are willing to comply with LADOT’s mobility data specifications and that they express the city’s core values through their technology. It also lays the groundwork for how the city will manage what’s coming next. Seleta Reynolds is a strong advocate for public/private cooperation, and believes the city should start acting and thinking more like product companies, and vice versa. She discusses the need to raise the political will to build the right infrastructure in order to create complete streets that benefit everyone, no matter how they travel. LA CoMotion is a great place for companies and messengers to work together on solving real problems though the improvement of public transit.
