    Segway: An overpriced mall cop ride | Sidebean

    Segway: An overpriced mall cop ride It was bound to happen, and it just happened. Last June, Segway's president, Ms. Judy Cai, announced that the company was utterly ceasing the Segway PT production, or as it was initially named, the Segway HT, for "Human Transporter." Some believed that it would revolutionize urban mobility, make the last-mile transportation more efficient, redesign cities, and other such high aspirations. But you know how this show usually goes. That glorified scooter that mall guards and tourists ended up rocking around some cities is officially on its road to extinction. What happened to Segway. #segway #startups #Slidebean 0:00 - Intro 1:36 - Segway: Reinventing the wheel 3:02 - Segway: An overblown leak 4:20 - Segway: A marvel of technology 5:34 - Segway: Is it safe? 6:49 - Segway: A consumer market of one Read the article: https://slidebean.com/blog/startups-segway?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=content&utm_campaign=ba-content Follow Caya: https://twitter.com/cayahere and https://instagram.com/caya_here ---- - Join our Discord ► https://slidebean.com/youtube#discord - Book office hours with Caya ► https://slidebean.com/caya Let us improve your pitch deck: https://slidebean.com/pitch-deck-design?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=video&utm_campai gn=video-content Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5-star for new episodes.

Yet in this atmosphere of growth and opportunity, many were affected when all of a sudden the game-streaming platform Mixer, owned by Microsoft, announced that it was shutting down, recently in June.
