Smart Mobility and the Future of Urban Transport (With Nemo)-Ep #204

Marc and Nemo explore how smart mobility, emotionally responsive vehicles, and integrated urban transport systems are reshaping the future of cities and accessibility.

About the Episode:

In this episode, we dive into the evolution of smart mobility — from experimental vehicles to scalable, city-ready systems. Nemo shares how his journey from community member to director at Local Motors helped shape projects like the Ollie and informed a new vision for urban transportation focused on accessibility, safety, and efficiency.

The conversation highlights how mobility can become a utility, much like Wi-Fi or running water, unlocking greater freedom and opportunity for individuals and communities. Nemo explains how companies like Mosey are blending technology, community design, and regulatory collaboration to make smart mobility practical and affordable.

We also explore the rise of emotionally responsive vehicles and how human-centred design is transforming how people interact with technology in public spaces. From ADA compliance to V2X frameworks, this episode paints a forward-looking picture of how smart transit will expand accessibility, economic opportunity, and civic engagement.

About the Guest:

Nemo is a mobility innovator and former director at Local Motors, where he led projects that combined community-driven design with cutting-edge vehicle technology. He played a central role in developing the Ollie autonomous shuttle and in guiding the company’s pivot toward last-mile mobility solutions. Following Local Motors’ acquisition by Mosey, Nemo has focused on building integrated ecosystems that connect vehicles, software, and city infrastructure. Through his work, Nemo continues to advance the vision of accessible, sustainable, and human-centred smart transportation.
