TLDR
Electric scooters, as the devices that Bird et all use, have been around for decades. Bird created an industry (with hundreds of jobs) that only exists because of innovations created in the last two decades. In year 2019, Bird now operates in over 100 cities around the world, with a 2 billion dollar evaluation, with over 800 people in its employ. The technology used to power these services didn’t exist in combination to create a brand new billion dollar industry. The concept was popularized with the invention and launch of Uber, 2009, with Lyft following the invention in 2012.via the TL;DR App
