Emily Chang: LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman’s SPAC company, Reinvent, has agreed to merge with Joby Aviation to take the electric air taxi startup public. The deal will value the combined company at $6.6 billion and is expected to close in the second quarter. Joby will list on the New York Stock Exchange. Joining us now for more, Joby’s Executive Chair, Paul Sciarra. So, Paul, you know, the air taxis aren’t on the market yet, you’re still working on it and it’s a few years out, so why do a SPAC now?

Paul Sciarra: Yeah so for us, Emily, and first of all thank you for having me on, we’re obviously really excited about the news today. Part of it is about the deal transaction but actually part of it is about where we stand on development. In addition to the announcement today we’re also releasing new flight footage of our vehicle kind of moving through the full transition envelope. We’ve put more than 1,000 hours on that vehicle and we’re feeling really good about the performance of it, it’s hitting all the numbers that we set out to hit – the speed, the range and the overall capacity. So for us this felt like the right time to put more resources on the balance sheet but even more importantly because we felt like we were ready from a technical standpoint, we have a clear path to certification and now we have the opportunity to really march down the set of milestones that would get us to commercialization.

Emily Chang: So we’ve been talking SPAC controversy almost through the entire hour. We were speaking with A-Rod about his SPAC plans earlier. You know there are folks out there who say these are companies that are not necessarily ready for prime time, what’s your response to that?

Paul Sciarra: I think that from our perspective, sort of delivering on this requires a few things. It requires making sure that you have the right vehicle, making sure you have the right manufacturing and making sure you have the right capability to begin to launch commercial service. From each of those perspectives, we felt like we had the right ingredients now. As I mentioned, the vehicle is doing what we want to do, but even more importantly we have a partnership with Toyota in order to execute on our production plan and we’ve got a team now from Uber Elevate that we acquired just last year that’s going to give us the opportunity roll into commercial from the launch. So, from that perspective we felt like things were bright in terms of things that matter in terms of building this business to kind of make this transition into a public company.

Emily Chang: So what are nearest term use cases? Like when will it be ready to take me across the Bay to work?

Paul Sciarra: Yeah, so the range on the vehicle is really wide, so really think about suitable for really any trips between five and 150 miles. So that might be your daily commute, but it might also be connected cities to nearby suburbs, or even to other cities that are also nearby. So that’s a pretty wide range of use cases. When we think about an example about like going across the Bay, that’s obviously a perfect example, because as you know, in San Francisco and the broader Bay Area, there’s lots of really difficult geography that you have to navigate that creates some bottlenecks for congestion, whether it’s the Bay Bridge, the San Mateo bridge and vehicles like ours have the opportunity to dramatically decrease people’s commute time. So we’re really excited about being able to roll that service out in select launch cities in 2024.

Emily Chang: Now look, there are dozens of other companies trying to do what you’re doing. One of your competitors recently had a battery fire, there are regulatory hurdles, there’s the cost. You know what, why are you so optimistic this will be a mainstream reality and will it be for everyday people or just for billionaires?

Paul Sciarra: Yeah, so there are a few things sort of baked into your question, and I just wouldn’t say is that, or what I can say is that we kind of started with these two priorities, first we wanted to ensure that the vehicle was incredibly safe. Secondly, we wanted to make sure that it was incredibly quiet. It’s actually the noise profile that for the most part limits the operations of helicopters and small planes in their own


cities. And then third, and finally we really started with a unit vector model to make sure that the vehicle, given its specifications could deliver progressively lower cost service over time. And our intention sort of outlined in the plan today is to really start at a price point that looks more like Uber Black but they quickly drive down to the cost of Uber X. And we think that all starts with getting the vehicle technology right.

Emily Chang: Interesting. Alright, we’ll be following latest developments I’m looking forward to my ride and 2024, or later, Paul Sciarra of Joby Aviation, thank you so much for joining us today.
