Is Technology the Silver Bullet? Conversation with Sujit Singh

About this episode

Sujit Singh discusses leveraging technology to address housing and transit costs.

Sujit Singh hopes to bring his 30-year experience in technology consulting to Congress. He outlines a vision for leveraging robotics, AI, and space-based solar energy to reduce the cost of housing and public transit. Mr. Singh shared his story of running for mayor in our neighboring town of West Windsor and developing his "Space, Lean, Innovation" model. He proposes that technological solutions can help overcome local regulatory hurdles and lower costs by as much as 50%. Can innovation bypass traditional gridlock, or are some problems too grounded for a digital-first solution?
