Hey everyone!  We're on Spring Break this week (and posting a little early) but I wanted to do a fun flashback so here we're chatting with David Hensher of the University of Sydney (Episode 425) about his thoughts on Mobility as a Service renamed mobility as a feature.  It's super interesting and thought provoking so I hope you enjoy it.  We'll see you next week!
