2:30 am
fred races, depression today, history, the largest we need to talk about here, the stories, shadows of german colonialism. the late again, it's down to the very last minute. getting to the meeting on time will be type. maybe take a taxi. that probably won't work because whether it's ben cox, beijing, or new york, the taxi will probably get stuck in a traffic jam in minutes the but now there might just be a solution that's storing about the rest. also a name today. well, the 2024 olympic games in perez be worthwhile financially, wealth and power. are they a threat to democracy? and through the glass ceiling?
2:31 am
one women in tex journeys at the top. the movies liked the elements, certainly popularize the idea of flying taxis. but nobody knew what they would actually look like. and this is the reality today. many start ups are developing concepts and models for their tax is powered by electricity. the market is growing with many companies competing, escrow, and i think it's a few dozen. if not more than a 100 percent, only a few of them will actually make it be successful. you'll get to 3 of them. the us air force plants to use this air taxing for transportation in the near future asian car manufacturers. hyundai and ex, paying want to get into the business. they use the same type of batteries as
2:32 am
electric cars in the us and air taxi could transport passengers between new york city in newark, airport starting 2025 chinese manufacture auto flight and the german company vol. a comforter want to start operating their err taxis at the olympic games in paris this year. and they have preliminary approval or should really good subsidy to see the difficult thing is we're operating in a new market and competing with start ups. many with very good ideas. at some point the money runs out and getting a new aircraft certified is incredibly time consuming and expensive. lo, please open it and not because german auto club, 80 ac puns to use volume come through taxis for air rescues. as i have one very important factor is that our aircraft is much cheaper to buy than helicopter, and significantly cheaper to maintain. the gall couldn't bottle. the safety
2:33 am
requirements in aviation are high before an aircraft can go into operation. it has to undergo extensive testing. the chance of an accident happened and can only be one and a 1000000000 flight hours. except we have exactly the same safety requirements in europe as commercial aircraft influence. like all the you aviation safety agency regulates air traffic in europe. clear rules had been defined for the operation of air taxis for pilots. this means a change, new certifications and training courses. today, you know, are rules that were made available. we are assuming that we have a title either coming with the initial public license for right crap or so the cop to which was a system of knowledge and skills and competencies. vollmer comforter was the 1st company to receive approval to train pilots. now they're developing a training program that we need pilots with commercial licenses who have flown
2:34 am
either airplanes or, or helicopters is commercial pilot site. we then give them conversion training and they're going to be an important part of the training. is that pilots have to be able to control the air taxi and emergency situations such as snow, thunderstorms and strong winds? or is the technology fails and systems malfunction? take offs and landings are particularly stressful for pilots. you're supposed have a nice way to say you're constantly taking off and landing throughout the day, which these phases, that's a typically have the highest probability of accidents on the system. so the stressful conditions will also require completely different regulations on working hours is obviously comes out of the office, say 3 can be through the number of take off and landings per day as well as pilot rest periods, need to be regulated. auto pilot systems will also have to be used to ensure safety
2:35 am
molar comforters. goal is to become the high end taxi of the future, costing around 12 euros per kilometer. a moment. yeah. usually, once we start building up our fleet of aircraft, we can move into areas of air, taxi transportation, equivalent to today's premium cab, or even uber black air taxis could be used to transport passengers to airports. the advantage for providers is that airlines would help with a financing this fruit clean use. so i'm ok, the airlines say they're developing a network system that will transport people from smaller locations or airports and fly them from these hubs to long haul roots like that. so the super long split premium is air taxis really do take off. we'll also need completely new air roots and new air traffic regulations. the u space system is the new air traffic management system being implemented in europe. we have providing system principals
2:36 am
and help them out to the traffic, but then the real operations and soul of the high space. these are comprehensive peach and do well men display. and what should this look like? more specifically, how is it supposed to work? you will be able to take an air taxi from averted porch and order it using an app systems. and it will be waiting for you at the very to port from there. and it will transport you within the same city to the next city or wherever you want to go. so basically, budget for a guy who's stuck in a nice to set up. the market potential is huge by 2050 air tax. these could be used in 200 cities worldwide. you, i'll fire the . the whole world is thrilled about the summer olympics in paris. except for maybe
2:37 am
the for reasons. because for the french capital, the games mean lots of stress and even more traffic chaos. hundreds of thousands of visitors are expected and parents is already full of taurus. and so there are some who are not thrilled by the whole spectacle. it's also very expensive and we'll bring into a little money for the city. in fact, the games often costs the organizers many times more than they bring in pairs 2024 is set to be different from 2024. it's for some credit. this is how organize this imagine paris during this years, olympic and power olympic games. a giant street party with hundreds of thousands of visitors. numerous companies have help pay for the way for that such as star topler probably the business providing sheets of recycled and recyclable plastic. the roll
2:38 am
material 411000 seats at 200 and pick then use a point of view wrong images. we won the old a sense of 19, just one year on from when our company was how many disgusting project was pre solved, future clients, and investors that we were a credible company. it takes thoughts of our business and how does increase the number of employees from 4 to 20 and nowadays the company employs 35 stuff and has raised 11500000. yours offensive capital. that plastic panels are also useful flooring, nice handles or sinks and put something else at the olympics. we definitely provide the material for the metal podiums and we take great pride in that everybody will see them and our friends and it's a nation athletes. we received them lightens on these podiums, the organize us want the summit games to be sustainable and green and those 3rd of times. and to be part of that is a great opportunity. the company is not the only one to be bases by the upcoming
2:39 am
games, but this economist says, there was a role economic impact would be hardly felt. the default stuck in just about 10000000 euro is being spent to construct the necessary infrastructure. and 130000 jobs created. that might seem a lot, but it's compacted francis g d p of 2500000000000 yours and the countries overall 30000000 jobs. it's really not much. we've looked at all the olympics on the game since the ones in the south korean capital of so in 1988 and none of them noticeably boosted host countries, economic growth even if certain sectors or regions of a tough benefits. but even though this use games are unlikely to stimulate the french economies great, significantly, the entrepreneur is hoping they will initiate a winning streak for the company. it recently opened a 2nd factory in eastern france. so let's just feel like this is the sample in the
2:40 am
office on the we aim to it put new branches across fonts and europe, close to waste disposal sites. we are trying to invent a new search, the models that we produced elsewhere, which we hope it will be that the company's aiming to become the european leader in the sector in 2030 and to contribute to many more olympic and power. limpy gaines in the future money makes the world go round. whether that's about making the olympic games more profitable. or the super rich trying to get even richer. the gap between rich and poor as widening which also has a major impact on political decision making process. the money gets the rich more power and a greater saving people with less money. the principal of a quality event disappears and that poses dangerous for society. a
2:41 am
very low, very rich people around a wealth of the wealth continues to grow and money means power place in economic and political times. the rich have a say when it comes to decision making poor people have a false molar loving but this, this concentration of wealth and influence also how the threats to democracy. it's becoming apparent to everyone that the levels of any policy that we're seeing. i simply lot sustainable, dangerous for democracy because extreme wealth also keeps fig screen political power. even in the gilded age in the us, in the late 19th century, the wealthy dominate to the political landscape. during the gilded age,
2:42 am
when corporations 1st rose up and the very wealthy and powerful man and they were all manned, who are running these corporations absolutely dominated apologize. they with a great industrialists and pioneers at that time with the names of still 9 to every one. today. it was j. p. morgan, the 1st great banker, andrew carnegie, who made his money and steal a cornelius vanderbilt who made his money on the railroads. no, all these things steal railroads. banking all came leaping up, as they said, during the civil war and by 1900. they are huge corporations. these industrialists, enough time we built companies, they built empires that had an immense impact on the american economy. but this select group of men could and did it, who was politics and baffled the legislative branch as well. when the
2:43 am
stock market collapse, the 1929 government had no influence over anything. but 6 man sixpence got together and said, we'll say to the country and they are our an influence of wealth was so much that it was thought that these the mortgage, the carnegie is the vegetables that they actually if anybody was going to save the country, it was them, but they didn't succeed. the crisis deepened and led to the great depression. the new deal in the 19 studies introduced economic reforms that cuts hold the power of the ty, queens and stabilize the economy. but today we're once again seeing the super rich gaining and most influence, sorry for politics. and it's been coming on for some years now. on america's tom hoffman program and 2015 former us president jimmy carter expressed
2:44 am
his concern about the influence of the rich and political decisions that full on democracy. it validates your absence of, of what made america great country. and this political system now is just an oligarchy. where the, with unlimited political bribery being the assets of getting the nominations for pressure for president or elected president. in the last election, we spent in the united states $14400000000.00 just in 2020. and most of it over half came for very which individuals but the power of the rich goes much faster than financial contributions, especially in times of digitalization and globalization. connecting one of the most current case examples is when we're healthy individuals acquired
2:45 am
the media platforms, established media platforms that come with basketball. the and this provides them with an extra layer of power. the loan must quote to us here in 2022 for around $44000000000.00 in the same. yeah, he blocked the accounts of several, john lists future quoted on him. the most influence goes far beyond that. when wealthy individuals. ready also have access and can buy a critical infrastructure and that these also related with a must us use the o and they're all starting at the very most critical company which provides something like internet services. and this provides little musk and he's company with the. ready much a leverage, i guess the us government we have seen in the past house, he's willing to use it by threatening to shut down the startling services in,
2:46 am
in specific parts of ukraine. this makes a loan mosque a g or political player because of shutting down styling and today's digitalized wolf, i would like defending ukraine. can sit or play more difficult to say to rich, continue to hold significant sway over international affairs. so how can we reduce the inequality between rich and poor? higher taxes are an old idea that has never been very effective. the rich no only to well how to avoid taxes is their money is often spread around the world in tax havens the. and those governments have nothing against the wealthy people in their country. however,
2:47 am
there is also another idea for eliminating well limits harry and as i miss the magic word economically metairie and isn't when some people are too rich. sure, it's great to have money who doesn't want a big house, a fast car and luxury vacations. but some economists and philosophers believe that when you have too much money, it's harmful to society, the economy and the planet facing an upper limit should be imposed on how much wealth someone can accumulate. the surplus goes with the private members of society . the states will climate protection the limit, terry, and this isn't the same thing as socialism and communism. it's advocates don't reject the idea of wealth accumulation and property and acknowledge that some social inequality is inevitable. but they think some people simply have too much when a billionaire and another 100000 bureaus, they bailey,
2:48 am
even moses. whereas that amount of money will completely change the life of someone to get once a certain threshold is cost, more money doesn't improve the quality of life from the country. or the super rich can often become mistrustful. lonely and dissatisfied. the that's the practical side of the matter. but there are also ethical aspects to consider. is it really okay that some people are massively wealthy? well, others staffing homes not to mention the environmental impact of private jets and making your moreover the rich austin, heavy years politicians and can influence decisions directly through lobbying, hold their own media or in the highest. but what precise limits should be since a w1cw000000000. how exactly should the surface be spent?
2:49 am
and should they be national limits or a global what the support is of economically materialism. still don't have all the answers. it's critics, the accumulation of wealth is an incentive boost progress, crow, and innovation. many questions still remain for now. the idea of limitation ism is merely surface thoughts. just one potential solution to the problem. rising economic inequality most bosses are still men. they continue to rule at the top levels of companies. the times are changing, the women are catching up fast and increasingly aspiring to be executive rules. at the same time, women are networking more than ever before. one woman in singapore has managed to

navigate considerable resistance to successfully established herself in the business world. the like being false. i think i'm natural at the double minority agency in tech is very, very tough. you have to press severe and literally show your muscles and lean to live discomforts and take a lot of risk. so i would say that i've always been doing that my entire life. i am anna gone. i and the ceo and founder of clerks technology. my parents for his chinese immigrants come in to the us and they just tell you to go and do really well in school to get good grades. make all

a the only thing that i can give us was of great education and to get us into the outside world and explore. so i moved away from florida and landed in california. that was the height of the dot com, though i probably met some of the most influential leaders and, and mentors really surrounding myself with world class professionals. i think i was just in the right place of the right time. i almost always the when i came out here to sing for, it was just another challenge i was brought in late 2014 as the ceo
2:52 am
to help them scale and turn around the business. purchases, you know, started out as a business to consumer loyalty. i shut down the original business, started the business from scratch. i had to let go of the original team, 29 percent of them. the started to find some lighthouse customers, one of the largest banks here in sam 4 became of 1st clients. they are still our clients, so we're solving large enterprises, loyalty and customer engagement challenge. we're now that lovely, long 71 of

2:54 am
going, citing with the transformation of parts. it was shameful experience. the toughest curious in my life, the i think about this all the time and my enough of a woman because i'm divorce and i don't have kids. but my therapist actually has been telling me that tanner, you're actually raising a b when you're trying to build a business. you know, woman, it's really hard to have it all. you have to make some sacrifices if you want to really rise up and break those glass ceilings, i believe in mentorship because it had a big impact on me now when it came back the same way. so there are 2 groups that i mentor one for is really young kids. they're just
2:55 am
figuring yourself out. and the other one is that where young printers really require a bit of structure and focus but you can do it yourself. and that's where i see a lot of females today, they're closed off and they wanted to achieve everything themselves. those who actually really make it is because they're like amazing. the sas set for another edition have made the, the use business magazine where we flew over a mega cities with air attacks. the question how to make the super rich more socially conscious hands met a woman who successfully strive for the top and business join up for me. next week
