THE GJK PODCAST
A REFRESHING BREATH OF FRESH THINKING
Africa is currently going through a difficult time adjusting to the growing gig economy, especially in the transport industry where digital platforms such as Uber and InDrive are growing at a fast rate and changing public transportation as we know it. Governments across Africa continually find themselves with the responsibility to intervene in the growing conflicts between local taxis and the growing digital technologies that continue to disrupt markets and provide a cheaper-faster-and-better experience for consumers. In some areas on the continent, entrepreneurs who are maximizing the 'gig economy' opportunities within the transport industry through Uber have suffered assaults and injuries from traditional taxi operators. In this week's podcast, we take a closer look into a developing story in the Republic of Botswana where the InDrive platform and its future is facing a potential threat.
