      Makani I am from this Region and it is really amazing dir mechanical engineering and mechanics :) in every little village you have companies, work shops, engineers which is really great (in school times I build with friends an electric Kettcar and people could help us with also CNC milling etc :)
      The only thing holding us down I feel like is the Gouvernement and regulations ... . And of course we are not Silicon Valley, but I would say we are the Silicon Valley of mechanical engineering ...

    David, I love your interviews, and I have a little suggestion for you that might help your program grow at a much faster pace in terms of popularity (and revenues). I've seen that most of your interviewees are CEOs and top-level managers of companies based in the West. That's dope. But I'd say that there is a world of incredibly intelligent folks working as CEOs in Asia, Middle East, India, and even in countries that seldom make it to prominence such as South Africa, Pakistan, Iran, etc. You may invite the folks who are leading the markets in their respective countries. That would give your show a truly global dimension, and would also make it a source of unprecedented information about doing business and achieving success in various different countries of the world. The profundity of such an initiative would be mammoth, I believe.

      gustre it is actually ridiculous, Daimler’s amount of sold cars is more 20 times as high, it just shows that American corporates are traditionally higher capitalised on the market than Europeans.. for example JPM has "only" 100 billion and Allianz 150 billion in revenue but JPM‘s market cap is 8 times as high

      @@mnd.7953 market cap is based on expectations of profits. JPMs profits after taxes have been more than 3x compared to Allianz. It's the same with Tesla and Daimler. Markets expect Tesla to make more in profits than Daimler the next 20 years. And I agree that Tesla's valuation seems ridiculous but we will see in the next 5 to 10 years. They are banking a lot on just the battery manufacturing.

    As a german, I can't see Daimler get close to Tesla any time soon. In the new era, you have to be a software company first and a car producer second. Daimler has outsourced the most important part of the upcoming 'next-gen' car industy: the software required to run intelligent cars. They have to make a massive shift and become a software company. I just can't see that happen any time soon (as a german software engineer).
