Taxi 4.0 - The Post-Uber Era

  • Summary

  • The medium salary for U.S. Taxi drivers is only $33,034, according to salary.com. Under threat from Uber and driverless cars, the traditional taxi industry is facing a bleak future. In this episode, I will speak with Dr. Sheng-Tsung Hou, the Director at the Center for Service Innovation and Mobility Design (SIMD), who has spent years studying the taxi industry in Singapore, Taiwan and Japan. We will discuss the innovative system in Singapore which Uber emulated as well as the turnaround story of a Taiwanese taxi company that became the first ride-hailing firm in the world to go IPO. He will share his thoughts on Uber's next move and what taxi companies can do to compete in a world of increasing digitalization and monopolies.
