March 22, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Uber didn’t start out with grand ambitions, but as the company grew in popularity so did it’s impact. Today, more than 5 million trips are booked through the Uber app every day across more than 450 cities around the world. In the UK, millions of people use the app in more than 25 towns and cities from Edinburgh to Portsmouth. In this lecture, Fred will talk about how Uber’s looking to use it’s popularity to impact congestion, pollution and parking, as well as improve access to transport by making private cars a thing of the past.
