In
case you have never heard of the names Travis Kalanick, Garrett Camp and Oscar
Salazar; those young men are the founders of Uber (formerly Ubercab), the hot
ride-hailing service that has taken the (global taxi) world by storm. Uber is
today a $51 billion company that has disrupted the taxi industry in the USA,
and continues to disrupt the Taxi industry in every of the 58-plus countries it
has entered since it launched on May 31st 2010.
What
they did?! ...They automated a comfortable and easy way for average urban dwellers to get
a taxi ride, or make money by the side as impromptu taxi drivers. You can read Travis’ account of
how they came about the Uber idea, and guess what? What you know as Uber today somewhat differs from what they conceived that day!
So
also Airbnb, a $16 billion company that has today successfully automated the way an average
person can make money from renting out a free bed-space in his house to A
COMPLETE STRANGER!
Credicoins
wants to make it easy for the average human being living in a ‘third world
country’ to achieve their financial dreams by leveraging on the efforts, time
and resources of another human being (wherever they may live). And we intend
using all the technological means possible to do that for third world dwellers
in order to help eradicate poverty in the world and create a more balanced
financial ecosystem.
We
want to be the ‘Uber of cooperative societies’. And it all starts from a
savings culture.
