so, i caught up with its big boss. andre schwammlein, real pleasure you having you on the show. and andre, on the show this week, we have been talking about the side hustle. so i m just wondering, how challenging was it to get flix started while you were working somewhere else? great to be here. thanks a lot for the invitation. and actually, it felt very natural for me to start it on the side. so i was working at bcg. i was in consulting back then. and i started a phd. i was looking at start up ideas on the weekend. even in consulting you don t work every weekend, so you have weekends off, and so i had time to do that, search for ideas and discuss with my co founders what to do during my active work. so, we tried to play it very transparent, that we were looking at a business idea, and back then, it was ten, 13 years ago, it was not super common
for environment of reasons, towards something which is more environmentally friendly, be it buses or trains? then i would say, to a very limited extent. people are aware of the problem of flying, around the c02 emissions and climate change. do they completely act according to that and then rather sit on the bus? i don t see that on a big scale yet. i hope for a change over the next couple of years. but at the moment it is not visible. people like that if they take the bus there is very little co2 emissions and it is eco friendly, but it is not the main reason why they pick it. how much more environmentally sensitive are you than your rivals? for example, your website talks about a bus with solar panels that runs from dortmund in germany to london, but let s be frank, that is just one bus. and you know this, andre, critics will say that that is just green washing.
