The transport industry

3 things

…physical



…public



…analogue



TransportaMon has developed

more or less linearly

the last 5500 years...



...which the informa:on technology has not.



You can't just ask customers what they

want and then try to give that to them.

By the Mme you get it built, they'll

want something new.

Our control systems are dashboards

The Internet became accesible for Swedish consumers around 17 years ago

A (bad and expensive) mix between Teletext and the Yellow Pages

Not very preky

Few people with computers



Today, 15 years later, we have

sites like Google Flu Trends

Based on what people google and where their computer is located

Two weeks ahead of the official flu

tracker www.google.org

And finally…



How will we use the technology in 17 years?
