"Forcing people to provide this hugely expensive good that they then have to give away for free has been a mistake and it's resulted in a lot less flexibility for businesses. It's resulted in more expensive housing. It's resulted in cities that are flooded with cars and with buses that are stuck in public transit. And I think we're just getting to the point where we're starting to see the light. And we're starting to realize that perhaps the future could look a little different."‍In this episode of Build The Future, we talk with Evan Goldin, the founder of Parkade which builds parking software that helps businesses, cities, and individuals better utilize the overabundance of parking spaces around them.We talk with Evan about the havoc that free parking has wrecked on our cities, the impact of COVID on our city streets, and the role that parking innovation will play in building the future of cities.Thanks for joining us for this episode of the Build The Future Podcast!

My long term goal is to create a world where people can start countries. Like they start companies today.In this episode of Build The Future, we talk with Patri Friedman (@patrissimo), the founder of Pronomos Capital where they're supporting the development of charter cities and new forms of governance. In doing so, they're building the future of how new cities are creating, how they're run, and how they innovate. Key IdeasLaw as Code, Cites as Product — Similar to code, law can operate as an open source library or database of the best laws that people around the world are continually contributing to and adapting. As a result, the cities and governments that are built off of these laws will be best positioned to serve their people.Everything as Insurance — In these charter cities, insurance would be used as a way to control who is allowed to visit the city. Everyone may buy liability insurance based on the risk they pose given their past history, psychological profile, and assets they own. Rather than being discriminatory, the efficiency of markets could make this a very accurate model reducing and providing compensation for any harm or damage that occurs.Markets Eating the World — By creating more markets, such as a market for governments, competition between different ways of doing things will arise which forces those who want to be at the forefront to optimize and improve their solutions.  Links:Follow Patri on Twitter (@patrissimo)Pronomos VCCharter Cities InstituteLearn MoreIf you're interested in learning more about the future of education or discussing these ideas, sign up for our weekly newsletter below where you'll receive deep dives into the future, new episode announcements, and opportunities to join in on discussions about the possibilities of tomorrow.Thanks for joining us for this episode of the Build The Future Podcast!

We had a unique understanding and we said, okay, we're going to rebuild healthcare software, but we're not going to make it look like traditional healthcare software. We're going to make it feel like platforms these people already use. And more importantly, we're going to make it so easy and flexible and affordable for them that it just becomes a no brainer.In this episode of Build the Future, we talk with Goke Olubusi, the founder and CEO of Helium Health. In Africa where access to technology is very limited and few people know how to use it, Goke and his team at Helium health have made huge strides towards reshaping healthcare without providing new devices or training. The next question seems to be how? Due to his extensive knowledge of the African market gathered from previous startups, Goke knew he had to work within people’s existing behaviors. While access to technology and the skills to use it are both constraints, he recognized that most people have a smartphone and are familiar with programs like Facebook, Twitter and Whatsapp. From there, Goke shares how he specifically developed a new healthcare software that can be used on a smartphone and has a similar interface to apps people already know. Key IdeasData-driven decision making: Goke envisions healthcare in Africa and other markets being driven entirely by data and technology. Collecting and analyzing data rather than storing thousands of paper files would allow hospitals in Africa to analyze things such as when they are busiest and need to allocate the most resources, where they are losing money and where they could be more efficient. Digital Infrastructure: In order to enable this, Helium is building the digital infrastructure for hospitals. This is a collection of data and metrics that is built on top of the existing infrastructure of smartphones that already exists. Hospitals can then easily access and use this data to operate more efficiently. Telemedicine: Similar to other countries, the coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the use of telemedicine in Africa. Before coronavirus, Hospitals were not very interested in telemedicine, but they are now looking for a solution because they have never thought of operating virtually and their revenue is down 80% to 90%. LinksConnect with Goke Olubusi (@thisgokeboysef)Helium Health: Website | Twitter‍Listen and Learn MoreListen to this episode and many more by searching for “Build The Future” on any podcast platform or going to our websiteThanks for joining us for this episode of the Build The Future Podcast!
