London is home to a startup that I’m ashamed to say I’d never heard of until I attended an interesting presentation given by one of its co-founders, and CEO, Vinay Gupta, at the Media Evolution conference in Sweden.
The company is called WhipCar, and it’s basically a website where you can rent cars from other car owners in your neighborhood (that is, if you’re in the UK).
