Eric will share insights into Uber’s history and strategies leading up to its success, as well as current legal roadblocks in the Asian market, especially the recent taxi-industry opposition. However, that didn't stop Uber from its plan to expand in all 21 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member economies by working closely with governments and regulators to establish the right framework.


Get to know how Philipines is seen as the best framework and transport regulations in the world as a country that embraced the Uber model, and what is their marketing strategy to increase awareness particularly in Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore.


Join us to glean valuable insights about what makes a successful product, learn about the importance of company culture, and enjoy mingling with like-minded individuals at the networking session after.
