Tech companies today are building bigger and bigger campuses. Think about Google"s sprawling complex in Mountain View, Facebook"s expansive headquarters in Menlo Park, and Amazon"s new HQ2 in Arlington, VA. These are not just workplaces; they are mini-cities, pulsating with thousands of employees every day. Just trying to get around campus becomes a rather daunting task and that’s a problem that Jeral Poskey, founder of Swyft Cities, thinks about a lot: Swyft Cities was founded in 2019 by some Google Alums, behind the real estate and transportation programs for Google Campuses! The problem they were trying to solve? How do you move massive amounts of people in an increasingly growing campus? Jeral envisions a future where getting around tech campuses and cityscapes is as seamless as hopping on a ski lift, but with the urban flair of downtown gondola rides. Swift Cities isn"t just about easing commutes; it"s about transforming how we interact with our urban environments, making them more accessible, sustainable, and enjoyable. As Jeral puts it, it"s about creating a "Goldilocks density" of urban living, where communities thrive without the clutter and pollution of cars.
