Business model reinvention has to happen to make this work at scale. That’s particularly true for manufacturers. #NRF2022

Industry has yet to unlock the potential of on demand- Jason Bern #NRF2022

Nuro - we recognized that retailers have impossible choice- fast and expensive or slow and cheap. We believe in an on road solution. #NRF2022

What can you change about goods delivery? We built a vehicle that’s radically different. It’s about the core premise of starting from goods. -Nuro #NRF2022

We can sacrifice comfort for safety; it’s the fundamental benefit of goods transport rather than people. -Nuro #NRF2022

Nuro- what you see in Asia is a good proxy for what’s happening there. Still, keep in mind- the cost of delivery is radically different. #NRF2022
