Uride Technologies Inc. is a Canadian ridesharing company that operates a platform connecting passengers with drivers across more than 20 cities. The company delivers over a million rides annually and has been recognised by Deloitte as one of Canada's Top 50 Fastest-Growing Technology Companies. Uride is currently expanding into Mexico and Germany.
The company was founded with a focus on underserved communities - markets where reliable transportation options have historically been limited - and on reducing drink-driving. Its ridesharing service aims to provide affordable, on-demand rides in cities that larger platforms have largely bypassed. Uride runs a Good Deeds programme through which it reinvests in the communities it serves via local partnerships and sponsorships.
Beyond its core ridesharing operations, Uride has articulated a longer-term vision to build a marketplace platform enabling local entrepreneurs to launch and run service-based businesses. The company positions its technology as infrastructure for community economic development, not only passenger transport.
