Strategic Marketing – Uber’s Secret Ingredient for Success

May 11, 2016

Uber SIG Promo

In 2008, two young men had trouble getting a cab to stop for them in Paris. Eight short years later, Uber has revolutionized the way we think of local transportation, having expanded to 409 cities, millions of users, and a multibillion dollar company. What was the secret ingredient that made Uber a successful startup? Find out by joining us on May 11th to hear from Uber representative Brian Hughes on how they began, how to market an app successfully, building a double-sided market place, and how to reach a critical mass of users.
