Garrett Scott of Pipedream Labs — The Future of Delivery, Cities, and Commerce

In this episode of Build The Future, we talk with Garrett Scott, CEO of Pipedream Labs, about the world of hyper-logistics. Hyper-logistics is the ability to instantaneously receive goods, delivered to you no matter where you are, within seconds.  “Think beyond food!”  Hyper-logistics via an underground tubing system will be used to deliver goods and tools, to relieve the need to purchase and store items only needed on occasion, and after the items have been used they can be returned through the pipeline to the sender. Join us today as we discuss the possibilities of logistics and our ideas to create a better and more efficient future.To listen to more episodes and to stay connected, follow along at:https://www.buildthefuturepodcast.com/https://twitter.com/camwieseDon’t forget to leave a review and subscribe.
