#43 | Degrees of Freedom #2: Liz From Esoterix

Engenius

BUSES ARE COOL! Tap on and welcome aboard as we sit at the back of the bus and chat all things public transport with Liz Davidson. Liz tells us all about the power of public transport and the important effect that network optimisation can have on community mobility, economic growth and reducing inequality. Outside of the bus chat, we explore Liz’s career from teaching in Jamaica to working at her family sofa business to co-founding network optimisation companies Esoterix and QRoutes. Like what you heard and want to learn more? Liz has kindly collated a selection of interesting podcast, blogs and articles to browse through… Just don’t forget to tap off first!
