We discussed MPOs and USDOT funding. However, we want to dive deeper to give an overview of federal transportation authorizations and why they matter in BIL and environmental planning.

In Startup Spotlight, we have EdTech unicorn upGrad, who have recently raised $210 Million and are planning to hire 3000 more employees over next few months. In Funding news we have, upGrad, Clevertap, Jodo, Lenskart and 8 other Indian startups raise more than $1 Million. Ola Drivers Go to Court against Company: Ride hailing giant Ola is under big legal trouble as hundreds of it's former drivers have alleged that the company has committed fraud, and they are now going to Allahabad high court against the company. So the whole issue started when Ola started leasing out cars to the drivers under it's subsidiary company Ola Fleet Technologies and it gave 4 years times to drivers to make payment in the form of daily rentals. Due to COVID, when it couldn't happen, Ola started taking back cars from these drivers and so now these drivers are taking legal route. (https://inc42.com/features/how-indias-cabbies-are-fighting-legally-against-mobility-giant-ola/) Startup Spotlight - upGrad: upGrad has recently announced closing of a funding round of $210 Million and they had earlier announced that they will be hiring 3000 employees in the next three months. One reason, where upGrad seems to make itself stand apart from other edtech players, is instead of focusing on TAM (total addressable market), which a lot of major edtech players focus on, upGrad focuses on profitability. (https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/funding/edtech-unicorn-upgrad-raises-210-million-from-marquee-investors/articleshow/93413012.cms) Funding this week: This week saw at least 12 Indian startups raising more than $397 Million.

(https://inc42.com/buzz/oyo-acquires-danish-vacation-home-company-bornholmske-feriehuse-to-expand-footprint-in-europe/) Mswipe receives RBI's nod for payment aggregator licence: After Razorpay, Pine Labs and Innoviti, now payment startup Mswipe has received a payment aggregator license from RBI.

We've been at this for years. Creating, curating, and building systems that would nearly automate our development has been a long process (and we're still in it). However, we are finally at a place where we can share insight that will help streamline your legacy building as well. This is why we've created the Marriedpreneur Operating Systems! Just like a computer has software and hardware that work together as the OS, likewise for marriedpreneurs who are serious about the quality of their life on the journey. The MOS has revolutionized how we build both marriage and business and this is why we want to share it with you in this episode! So, here's exactly what we're diving into on episode 212 of the Marriedpreneur Life podcast:

BROWNSVILLE, Texas- A project to improve inspection facilities at Veterans International Bridge at Los Tomates in Brownsville is being fast-forwarded four years thanks to an innovative money-swap arrangement.The Rio Grande Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization would not have had money in the budget for the project until 2026, even though it is shovel-ready. So, the executive director of the RGV MPO, Andrew Canon, approached other large MPOs around the state to see if they could help.The North Central Texas Council of Governments said they could help. They agreed to essentially loan RGV MPO $14.6 million for the Brownsville port of entry project. If they had not done this, NCT COG would have had to return its money back to the Texas Department of Transportation. In return, RGV MPO will give the $14.6 million back to NCT COG in 2026 from its so-called Category 7 funds - without interest.“It is a huge project we are going to advance four years,” Canon said, referring to the Veterans International Bridge project.NCT COG has already approved the money-swap deal. RGV MPO approved the swap at a board meeting last Thursday. Now, it must be approved by TxDOT. RGV MPO Chairman Ambrosio Hernandez said Veterans International Bridge is one of the major ports of entry for the Rio Grande Valley.“Any port of entry that gets optimized in a more expeditious manner is always a win for the Rio Grande Valley. We are proud we were able to help as the RGV MPO, to move this project along,” Hernandez said. Hernandez said fast-forwarding the inspection facilities project at Veterans International Bridge is all the more important because the USMCA trade agreement is ramping up. “The more bridges we have functioning, the better off we will all be. The more trade we get, the more jobs are created,” Hernandez said. “I congratulate the RGV MPO for moving on this project and any other project that serves the entire Rio Grande Valley.”Cameron County Commissioner David Garza is a member of the RGV MPO. He said the Veterans International Bridge project is important for the whole region. “It increases the capacity and the speed at which we can get trade and goods through the bridge and into the state of Texas and the rest of the nation,” Garza said. “It is important for mobility of product into our country from Mexico and we know that there chokeholds in different areas. Some of them (trucks) are backed up a day or two.”Advancing the Veterans International Bridge project by four years does a number of things, Garza explained.“It gets the project done but more importantly it also will save us dollars doing it at today’s cost versus the cost four years from now. Who knows what those costs might be,” Garza said.“We don’t want to wait four years and then find out that the dollars we have are not enough to cover what we are doing. This presented an opportunity for us to take advantage of someone’s excess dollars.”Garza added: “It is a win-win situation for everybody.”Editor’s Note: The main image accompanying the above news story shows an inspection facility at Veterans International Bridge at Los Tomates in Brownsville.

This week I spoke to Alleza Howitt (@aleezagroks),  a contributor to the Trustlines protocol. Trustlines is a mPoS (minimal viable Proof of Stake) sidechain to Ethereum and stores transactions for a system of decentralized mutual credit. Mutual credit is an alternative medium of exchange to most money that we use today in which "money" is created through lines of credit that are established between people who trust each other.In this episode we discuss how Trustlines works from the smallest unit of mutual credit to an entire decentralized network of economic actors using mutual credit, why the Left should care about such an alternative monetary system, and the circumstances in which you may want to consider using this type of system yourself. If you have a community that would be interested in using decentralized mutual credit, reach out to Aleeza on Twitter and she'll help set you up!Learn more about TrustlinesTrustlines 101Trustlines AppUsing Trustlines for time creditsIf you liked the podcast be sure to give it a review on your preferred podcast platform.

Wenn uns eins inden letzten 24 Stunden klar wurde, dann das: Fintech ist nicht tot. Ganz im Gegenteil, eine Welle der Funding Nachrichten erreichte uns in den letzten Tagen. Enorme Summen wurden in mehrere Fintechs als “Wachstumsbeschleuniger” investiert u.a. in das Fintech des Gründers Marc-Alexander Christ, SumUp. Mit genau diesem haben sich André und Kilian virtuell getroffen um mit ihm über die vorerst roten Zahlen, die in der Presse waren, nun die Hammer Investition und generell über die Entwicklung des mPOS-Marktes zu sprechen. Wer SumUp noch nicht kennt, hier eine kurze Zusammenfassung: SumUp ist ein Finanztechnologieunternehmen, das es Unternehmen jeder Größe ermöglicht, Zahlungen schnell und einfach zu erhalten, sowohl im Geschäft als auch online. Benannt als Europas am schnellsten wachsendes Unternehmen in der Inc. 5000' hat SumUp täglich über 4.000 Unternehmen, die sich der Plattform weltweit anschließen, und - mit seinen Kartenterminals, auf die Unternehmen von DHL bis hin zu Taxifahrern vertrauen. 2019 erwartet SumUp einen Umsatz von 200 Millionen Euro zu erzielen. Im Oktober 2018 veröffentlichte SumUp seinen 3G-Leser, ein Kartenterminal, mit dem Händler Zahlungen ohne mobile App oder ständige Wi-Fi-Verbindung abwickeln können. SumUps 100% digitale Anmeldung, schnelle Lieferung und schnelle und einfache Einrichtung bedeutet, dass Händler innerhalb weniger Minuten nach Erhalt ihres Kartenterminals mit digitalen Transaktionen ausgestattet werden können Aber zurück zum eigentlichen Thema: Bain Capital Credit, Goldman Sachs Private Capital, HPS Investment Partners und TPG Sixth Street Partners haben satte 330 Mio. € in SumUp investiert, welches das Unternehmen nutzen will um noch stärker und schneller zu wachsen und noch mehr neue Händler auf seinen 31 Märkten rund um den Globus zu gewinnen. Die neuen Mittel werden verwendet, um die Produktpalette von SumUp weiter auszubauen, sowohl organisch als auch durch weitere Akquisitionen (M&A). Das Unternehmen hat sein Produktportfolio kürzlich durch die Übernahme von Debitor für Buchhaltung und Fakturierung und Shoplo für E-Commerce und Marktplätze erweitert. Goldman Sachs International agierte als Lead-Strukturierungsagent, Barclays Plc als Strukturierungsagent und Weil, Gotshal & Manges fungierten als Rechtsberater von SumUp bei der Finanzierung. "Wir glauben an bezahlbare, einfache und zuverlässige Technologien, die es kleinen Unternehmen auf der ganzen Welt ermöglichen, erfolgreich das zu tun, was sie lieben", sagt Marc-Alexander Christ, Mitbegründer von SumUp, "Als eines der am schnellsten wachsenden Technologieunternehmen der Welt wird diese Finanzspritze das Wachstum unserer Kundenbasis deutlich beschleunigen, die Technologieführerschaft von SumUp stärken und die Entwicklung neuer Dienstleistungen vorantreiben.“ Um euch nochmal einen Überblick über den mPOS Markt zu geben, haben wir euch auch gleich eine tolle Grafik gebastelt die wir mit anhängen.

Square pulls banking application; Facebook gets serious about blockchain with exec reshuffle

PayPal übernahm gestern den mPOS Anbieter iZettle für $2,2Mrd und rückte das (fast vergessene) Thema mPOS wieder in die Aufmerksamkeit. Als hätten wir bei Paymentandbanking das erwartet. Denn vor wenigen Tagen haben wir In dieser Folge des Podcasts über das etwas in Vergessenheit geratene, aber nun brandaktuelle Thema mPOS gesprochen. Als Gast haben wir Marc-Alexander Christ vom mPOS-Anbieter SumUp eingeladen. Ein mPOS (mobile Point of Sale) ist ein Smartphone, ein Tablet oder ein dediziertes drahtloses Gerät, das die Funktionen einer Kasse oder eines elektronischen Kassenterminals (POS-Kassenterminal) erfüllt. mPOS-Implementierungen ermöglichen es Service- und Vertriebsunternehmen, Finanztransaktionen durchzuführen, die Kundenzufriedenheit zu verbessern (CX) und wertvolle Ressourcen freizugeben, die sonst für eine POS-Arbeitsplatte bestimmt wären. Ein mPOS kann auch kosteneffektiv sein und es einem Inhaber eines kleinen Unternehmens ermöglichen, Transaktionen durchzuführen, ohne in ein elektronisches Register investieren oder jemanden bezahlen zu müssen, der die Software unterstützt.  Jedes Smartphone oder Tablet kann mit einer herunterladbaren mobilen App in ein mPOS umgewandelt werden.Wenn der Unternehmensinhaber die App registriert, sendet der Anbieter dem Geschäftsinhaber normalerweise einen Kartenleser, der an die Audiobuchse des mobilen Geräts angeschlossen wird. Einige Anbieter von mPOS-Software bieten auch optionale tragbare Docking-Stationen (sogenannte Schlitten), mit denen das Mobilgerät Barcodes lesen und Belege ausdrucken kann. Abhängig von der Software kann ein mPOS als eigenständiges Gerät betrieben werden, das einfach mit dem Bankkonto des Unternehmens verbunden ist, oder es kann eine integrierte Komponente eines größeren, veralteten POS-Systems sein. Zum Schutz der Karteninhaberdaten werden Kundendaten verschlüsselt und in der Cloud gespeichert - nicht auf dem Gerät. Die End-to-End Zahlungstechnologie von SumUp ist die erste weltweit, die den gesamten Zahlungsprozess, vom Chip & PIN Kartenterminal über die EMV-zertifizierte Zahlungsabwicklung, das Risiko- und Anti-Betrugs-Management bis hin zu Android und iOS Apps abdeckt. Marc und Rafael sprechen über den Status von mPOS, warum es so Still um das Thema geworden ist, welche Entwicklungen es im Markt gab und wie Deutschland sich im internationalen Vergleich schlägt.

Linking Communities Together Through Innovative Regional Transportation Planning May 12, 2015 Metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and regional planning councils are in the midst of a wave of innovative practices in how they work with communities to create long-range plans and how they work with local jurisdictions to implement land use, transportation and development decisions that support regional outcomes. Mariia Zimmerman shared highlights of recent work that she has conducted through her company, MZ Strategies, looking at some of the emerging best practices including highlights from the Innovative MPO Guidebook published by Transportation for America. Specifically, what types of local assistance programs are being created to foster more livable communities, how are regional agencies incorporating social equity into their investment decisions, and what role are MPOs and regional planning agencies playing in cross sector regional collaboratives. Erich Zimmermann focused on how MPOs and regional planners are innovating to provide better value to the communities they serve. Regional planners across the country are finding new ways to demonstrate their important role in transportation, economic development, and community well-being.

A transportation seminar presented by the USC METRANS Center for Transportation. Abstract: The 1962 Highway Act required for the first time that states engage urban areas in a cooperative, and comprehensive (3C) process to plan for federal transportation infrastructure investments. While this law—and subsequent regulations—could not predict the important role that metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) occupy decades later in a notably more decentralized and multi-purposed transportation decision-making process, they did set the stage for the evolution of MPOs into more robust regional institutions. While MPOs’ growth and development were of course aided by subsequent federal legislation and such exogenous factors as the rise of social and environmental concerns related to transportation, this early regulatory framework gave these regional bodies a legal foothold in transportation decision-making from which they could further establish themselves. Speaker Bio: Gian-Claudia Sciara is a postdoc at the University of California, Davis, where she works in the Urban Land Use and Transportation Center, a research unit working to improve connections between transportation and land use planning. Her research focuses on institutional and governance questions in transportation planning, policy and finance, particularly at the regional scale, and her publications and projects address innovations in metropolitan transportation funding, implications for planning of Congressional transportation earmarking, and the complexities of regional-local planning relationships. Gian-Claudia earned a PhD in City and Regional Planning at U.C. Berkeley and holds a Masters degree from UCLA. She is an AICP certified planner and has worked as a senior transportation consultant in New York City prior to pursuing her PhD.
