Mobility is one of the hardest spaces to build in. Cities are complex, change is slow, and decisions made today shape daily life for decades. In this episode of Next Stop, we sit down with a young urban planner and entrepreneur working in mobility to talk about what it really takes to build a start-up inside transport systems. We explore her non-linear path into mobility, the realities of founding in a highly institutionalised sector, and why entrepreneurship in transport looks very different from other industries. Recorded in the context of International Women in STEM Day, this conversation focuses less on labels and more on substance – who gets to build, how decisions are made, and what it means to work where cities are planned and movement is designed. We also talk about recognition, responsibility, and what comes next. 🌍About the Next Stop Campaign Next Stop is a new series taking over the Talking Transport Transformation Podcast, led by Youth Ambassador Sana’a Khasawneh.
