“The incredible talent that has assembled at Hyperloop One is what is making it possible. I don't just think it's a technology story, I think it's a human story. It's those hearts and that passion of everyone and the commitment that is distorting reality and making this possible as fast as it is.”
“Hyperloop can improve life dramatically for the 16 million people in the greater Moscow area, cutting their commute to a fraction of what it is today.
