out & aboutSOIRÉE BY SARAITHE KENTYou have to look for a “Brick building with a blue dot on a blackdoor.” What sounds like a prohibition-type location was in factthe only information, other than “around 534 Cambie Street”,that was given to the invited guests of another one of JasonSarai’s exclusive events.Once arrived, guests were treated to a nice surprise. The Kent isa very cool brickwall-lined venue that spans over 8,000 sqft. A wideopen space with a private collection of art and designer furniture, itwas indeed the perfect place for a cocktail party “in good style.”“An exclusive lifestyle experience amongst great company”, theevening was another wonderful get-together of people who celebratefashion and enjoy great conversation with like-minded people. Wecan’t wait for the next Soirée by Sarai!90 ICONIC CONCIERGE
THE TRANSPOD FLUXJETULTRA-HIGH-SPEED TRANSPORTATION AT OVER 1,000KM/HA groundbreaking Canadian innovation promises to enable drastic improvements incarbon footprint, travel time, and ticket price compared to existing transport options.TransPod, the startup that is building the world’s leading ultra-high-speed groundtransportation system (the TransPod Line) to disrupt and redefine passenger and cargotransportation, unveiled the FluxJet, an industry-defining innovation that transforms the waywe live, work, and travel.Based on groundbreaking innovations in propulsion and fossil-fuelfreeclean energy systems, the FluxJet is a fully electric vehicle thatis effectively a hybrid between an aircraft and a train. Featuringtechnological leaps in contactless power transmission and a newfield of physics called veillance flux, the FluxJet travels in a protectedguideway at over 1000 km/h – faster than a jet and three times asfast as a high-speed train.The FluxJet will operate exclusively on the TransPod Line, a networksystem with stations in key locations and major cities, featuring highfrequencydepartures designed to enable fast, affordable, and safetravel. Most recently, TransPod confirmed $550M US finance andannounced the next phase of an $18B US infrastructure projectto build the TransPod Line to connect the cities of Calgary andEdmonton in Alberta.Preliminary construction work, including the environmentalimpact assessment, has begun. This critical project will create upto 140,000 jobs and add $19.2B to the region’s GDP throughoutconstruction. Once the TransPod Line is in operation, it will costpassengers approximately 44 per cent less than a plane ticket totravel the corridor and reduce CO2 emissions by 636,000 tonnesper year.“All the hard work over the past few years has led to this milestonemoment where talk is becoming a reality. The technology is proven,and we have the confidence of investors, governments, and partnersto continue pushing forward to redefine transportation effectively,”said Sebastien Gendron, co-founder and CEO, TransPod.At TransPod’s July 2022 unveiling event in Toronto, a scaleddownFluxJet was featured in a live demonstration showing its flightcapabilities. The almost 1-tonne FluxJet vehicle demonstrated atake-off, travel, and landing procedure within its guideway.“This milestone is a major leap forward,” said Ryan Janzen, cofounderand CTO, TransPod. “The FluxJet is at a nexus of scientificresearch, industrial development, and massive infrastructure toaddress passengers’ needs and reduce our dependence on fossilfuel-heavyjets and highways.”“TransPod completely changes the game with ultra high-speed,zero-emission passenger travel and freight transportation betweenmajor gateway cities,” said Yung Wu, CEO of MaRS DiscoveryDistrict. “It is time for bold action from our policymakers, investors,and operators to support the commercialization of made-in-Canadainnovations like TransPod, to win in the multi-trillion dollar globalinnovation economy.”ICONIC CONCIERGE 91
