Replay: Revisiting Aurora (NASDAQ:AUR) and CEO Chris Urmson

In this SPACInsider Podcast Replay, we go back to 2021, when we
spoke with Chris Urmson, CEO and Chairman of autonomous truck
technology firm Aurora (NASDAQ:AUR).


At the time, Aurora was working to close its $10 billion business
combination with Reinvent Technology Y. Chris laid out how the
company planned to approach the commercialization of its
self-driving heavy truck business model and what challenges still
laid ahead for it and other developers of autonomous technology.


Now, Aurora is preparing to debut its driverless trucks along the
Dallas-to-Houston freight route later this month, with plans to
extend on to El Paso and Phoenix, Arizona before year’s end.


Now that this debut is finally at hand, take a listen to what the
road ahead for Aurora looked like four years ago and why it was
kicking off that journey with a SPAC.
