YOUR FIRST YOU TELL US A BIT
MORE ABOUT CHARGED IN THE
COMPANY'S PLACE IN THE
MICROMOBILITY MARKET.
>> YES THANKS FOR HAVING ME BEN
NICE TO SEE YOU. YOU KNOW IT'S
INTERESTING
I WASN'T EARLY IN THE SPACE TO
AN INVESTMENT WE MADE IN LINE
AND AFTER I SAW KIND OF THE
EXPLOSIVE GROWTH
I SAW THE ACHILLES HEEL OF THE
INDUSTRY WAS THERE WAS NO
INFRASTRUCTURE. AND SO
YOU KNOW.
ANY ODDLY I THINK SOMETIMES WE
HAVE TO START A BUSINESS YOU
HAVE TO TAKE A LITTLE OUTSIDE
THE BOX WE HAD A BIG CHALLENGE
AHEAD OF US BECAUSE IT'S A FREE
FLOATING.
MODEL BUT I THINK THAT WITH THE
ADVENT OF OUR INFRASTRUCTURE
AND IT'S NOT
JUST THAT. MICHAEL ABILITY IT'S
FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES
AS WELL AND THAT THE MARKET
WILL ADOPT THIS INFRASTRUCTURE
AND GOOD TIME BECAUSE IT'S JUST
GOOD BUSINESS. AND YOU KNOW
TODAY WE'RE MUCH DIFFERENT
BUSINESS AND JUST MICRO ABILITY
INFRASTRUCTURE.
>> OF
COURSE FANS WE ARE ALL THEM OF
YOUR CAREER IN THE NBA ARE
LOOKING YOU SAYING YOUR 2 TIME
NBA, ALL-STAR SUN THERE IN YOUR
IN YOUR POST COURT CAREER YOU
HAVE YOUR PICK OF INVESTMENTS
IN THINGS YOU WANT TO GET INTO
WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE EAST BAY
SAYS SPECIFICALLY THE WORK WITH
CHARGE THAT MAYBE WANT TO
BECOME MORE INVOLVED.
>> YOU KNOW JUST HOW TO HAVE
A STRONG.
>> RELIEF AND ANDREW YOU KNOW
FOR ME.
>> IT'S ALWAYS BEEN CURIOUS
CURIOUS ABOUT THE SPACE.
YOU KNOW, AND YOU ARE
CONNECTED. IT WAS REALLY ABOUT
THE MICRO MOBILITY AND YOU KNOW
THE FUTURE RIGHT THE FUTURE
RIGHT
THE FUTURE OF TRANSPORTATION IS
THE FUTURE OF
LAST MILD WHO'S GOING TO BE THE
BEST OF ALL CIGARETTE AND SO
FROM A CHARGE YOU KNOW WAS MY
OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN
AND LISTEN AND AND YOU KNOW
WORK WITH ANDREW TO REALLY
UNDERSTAND THE YOU KNOW HOW
IMPORTANT YOU KNOW THIS NEXT
WAVE OF YOU KNOW ELECTRIC
INFRASTRUCTURE IS.
>> ANDREW I'M CURIOUS WHAT
SHIFTS IF ANY DID YOU SEE IN
TERMS OF CONSUMER BEHAVIOR IN
SENTIMENT DURING THE COVID-19
PANDEMIC AS IT RELATES TO MICRO
MOBILITY PRODUCTS AS WELL AS
DEMAND FROM PEOPLE OUT THERE.
>> WELL I THINK IT'S SAFE TO
SAY OBVIOUSLY THE NUMBER OF
RIDES
WENT DOWN. BUT THAT GAVE THE
INDUSTRY AN OPPORTUNITY TO KIND
OF EVALUATE. A LOT OF THINGS
INCLUDING INFRASTRUCTURE
THAT WORK TALKING ABOUT I THINK
POST THE PANDEMIC YOU'RE GOING
TO SEE
A SIGNIFICANT. RIDERSHIP
INCREASES PEOPLE WANT
US DAY ALSO PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION
CLOUDY TRANSPORTATION. BUT IT
IS AN ABSOLUTELY GREAT FORM OF
TRANSPORTATION. IN CROWDED IT'S
GAME CHANGING. I THINK EVEN
DURING COVID EVEN THOUGH ACTUAL
RISE
WE'RE DOWN WHAT YOU SAW WAS
TIME SPENT ON THE ACTUAL DEVICE
WHEN PEOPLE ARE USING IT.
WENT UP SIGNIFICANTLY. AND SO I
THINK THAT AND THE BROAD
RECOVERY, I THINK YOU'RE GOING
TO SEE A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE
IN EASY IN
ITS ENTIRETY
ITS VEHICLES, IT'S YOU KNOW
IT'S MICHAEL BILLION DEVICES
IT'S E YOU KNOW BIKES, IT'S
MOOKIE BETTS AND SO WE'RE GOING
TO BE PROVIDING THE
INFRASTRUCTURE ALONG THE ENTIRE
ECOSYSTEM SO WE'RE SUPER
EXCITED ABOUT IT. WE KIND OF
CONSIDER WHAT WE DO. THE PICK
AXES AND SHOVELS OF THE SPACE
AND SO IS THE REAL
UNGLAMOROUS PART WHICH IS WHY I
THINK THAN LIKED IT WHAT WE'RE
DOING IS REALLY THAT POPULAR
BUT ITS SCALE IT'S VERY VERY
SIGNIFICANT.
>> I JUST
AND HER TO STAY WITH ME FOR A
SECOND YEARS AND YOU TALK ABOUT
SCALING CHARGES AND IN THE EAST
SCOOTER SUPPORT
SPECIFICALLY HIM HARRIS I CAN
TALK TO US A BIT MORE FURTHER
EXPANSION PLANS AND ARE.
>> SO WHERE PUBLIC COMPANIES
ALL THE INFORMATION THAT'S OUT
THERE. I CAN I CAN SHARE WITH
YOU. PARIS ONE OF THE NUMBER OF
MARKETS WERE SUPER EXCITED
ABOUT. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE E
D SECTOR AS
A WHOLE. THE LONG POLE IN THE
TENT OF THE EASY CHARGING
SPACE. TODAY OR A LACK OF
QUALIFIED PEOPLE TO INSTALL AND
SO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT KIND OF
THE LONG TAIL OF WHERE WE'RE
HEADING. THERE'S TREMENDOUS WAS
READING SOMEWHERE RECENTLY THAT
NORTH OF A 100,000 CHARGING
STATIONS A MONTH NEED TO BE PUT
IN JUST TO MEET
CURRENT DEMAND. SO THEY'RE
GOING TO BE A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT
OF NEW JOBS THAT WOULD BE
CREATED WE WANT TO CREATE A LOT
OF THEM. WE A NIGHTLY
CHAIN HOUR PEOPLE, BUT I THINK
IN THIS NEXT GENERATION OF
WORKFORCE. THE ELECTION OF
PATIENTS SIDE WE'RE GOING TO BE
A REALLY ROBUST INDUSTRY FOR
PEOPLE TO FIND NEW CAREERS AND
AND IT'S ONE OF THINGS WE'RE
MOST EXCITED ABOUT.
>> AND THEN IT CAN'T HELP BUT
