Managed Rideshare Events ™ Ground Transportation
Managed Rideshare Events ™ Ground Transportation
Worldwide
Event Transportation. Rethought. Managed Rideshare Events gives you a smarter way to handle group transportation — without the gaps. Whether you need a luxury sedan for a VIP arrival, an SUV for the executive team, a van for staff and extended family, or a last-minute ride when plans change, we coordinate it all through a single managed account. From elite vehicles to EV options and autonomous services like Waymo in select markets, every tier of your group is covered. Managed Rideshare Events™ is not a traditional ground transportation company. We are a managed rideshare program provider — designing and administering customized Uber, Lyft, and many other rideshare voucher programs for event planners, associations, corporations, and institutions. We serve the space between small companies (who handle a few vouchers directly) and large enterprises (who have internal travel programs). Our clients need a dedicated, professionally managed rideshare solution for event attendees — separate from internal corporate accounts. Key differentiators: Voucher-based rideshare management for rides, food, and deliveries Serves SMBs, associations, educational institutions, and mid-market corporate events Truly global coverage through rideshare networks — unlimited fleet, 24/7, local languages and currencies 30–50% cost savings vs. traditional ground transportation for comparable vehicles Ideal for staff, attendees, job candidates, and large distributed crowds Not a fit for high-security, VIP, or motorcoach needs — but often a secondary solution for this type of event.
