City of Melbourne Prize - Roving Transit
|
Description
|
Roving Transit (RT) is a revolutionary real-time carpooling system with great incentives for the people involved.
|
Where is the product now?
|
We are slowly developing the technology behind Roving Transit. Over the coming months, we hope to progress the technology to a stage where we can approach a large organization and sell the product. Plan B, which we are fairly vigilant in applying, is to keep abreast of potential seed investors who could add significant value to the idea.
