#5 Laura Fox

Infinite Block

This week Oliver interviews Laura Fox, General Manager of the Citi Bike bike sharing service in New York, and Senior Director of Lyft Bikes. This podcast was released on our sister podcast project, Micromobility. Laura has a very deep background and thinking about the future of cities, not only in an operational sense - running one of the worlds leading micromobility operations, but also before that working for Sidewalk Labs for Google and with former world bank urban economist Alain Bertaud, with whom she edited one of Oliver’s favourite books on urban economics “Order Without Design.” In this episode, Laura talks with Oliver about the implications of micromobility on the city and also new forces calling upon her background at Sidewalk Labs, and consulting on the interplay of regulations and housing supply in Mexico City with Alain.
