Manage episode 309039742 series 3025804
In this fourth episode of the season, host Mike O'Toole talks to Shelby Clark, Founder and Chief Community Officer of RelayRides. Based in San Francisco, CA and founded in 2010, RelayRides is a peer-to-peer carsharing service. It allows private car-owners to rent out their vehicles on a short-term basis. RelayRides gets attention for an innovative idea that addresses a multi-billion dollar economic opportunity and greens cities with an alternative to car ownership. But it is also a small, rapidly growing business, and is balancing a big vision around collaborative commerce with the scrappy realities of building an unconventional business: making the rental transaction simple and safe, inventing new insurance products, and partnering with GM to scale nationally.
