Uber for Business introduces a couple of commuting options to get to the office during the pandemic
Uber for Business, the business side of the consumer ridesharing service, has typically focused on helping companies track their Uber expenses, but during a pandemic, needs have changed. It's no longer about getting employees to and from the airport or shuttling an important client from the hotel to the office, it's about getting essential personnel to the office safely, and to that end, Uber introduced a couple of new business commuting options today. "Uber for Business is really about how we allow organizations of all shapes and sizes around the world to leverage the great consumer technology that Uber makes available, for business purposes," Ronnie Gurion, global head at Uber for Business told TechCrunch.
