Improving transportation requires more than developing new technology. That technology must be applied in the real-world, at scale, to make an impact.
Here are some of the most common pitfalls that trip up some of the best attempts to improve our transportation ecosystem:
- Missing the implementation phase (building the product, building the company, and building the ecosystem)
- Developing a technology that doesn’t really solve a need
- Misunderstanding the structure and decision-making criteria for your target customers
- Underestimating the time required to make your change
- Waiting too long think about manufacturing
- Not taking the right approach to manufacturing
- Failing to realize the importance of culture and regulatory support for your solution
- Trying to innovate across too many dimensions
