It is time for the world to experience faster and more efficient ways of transportation. Or do we seriously see ourselves continuing to drive cars, or sit in trains, as we do today? Choose between the red pill or the blue pill. Hyperloop will offer a new way of getting us to our destination: high speed, efficient, and sustainable… and most importantly, cool and edgy. Because life is awfully boring without an edge. Today I join the board of #SwisspodTechnologies - a company pursuing the development of hyperloop transportation. Not the idea, but the execution of this idea. There are many ideas in this world, but execution is what matters. Swisspod is a cool company, led by the co-founder and CEO #DenisTudor, a true rebel with a great vision… and the determination to bring hyperloop to this world. I have been an investor since the start. Now I join the board to help make it happen. Swisspod recently broke a worldwide record, on our Swiss test track, for the longest hyperloop mission that ever happened. And we are planning for more at the largest hyperloop testing facility in the world in Colorado, USA. Stay tuned. #TeamSwisspod #Hyperloop #Future #Transportation #Innovation
