CEO of Didi Chuxing: Towards an Open Mobility Platform with Leading Machine Learning Capabilities and Stronger Driver CommunitiesBEIJING, April 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- CHENG Wei, founder and CEO of Didi Chuxing ("DiDi" and formerly Didi Kuaidi), shared the company's vision on the market, technology and social alliances at the Global Mobile Internet Conference ("GMIC") held in Beijing on April 28, 2016:
Didi seeks to build enduring collaboration with taxi communities. Given that supply shortage will remain the crux of China's transportation problem, the stability and experience of the taxi driver community remains the valuable foundation of any efficient mobility platform. As a believer in collaborative and progressive reform, DiDi is committed to support the ongoing reformation of China's taxi industry, through empowering drivers with new technologies, providing information platform support for taxi companies, and sponsoring new restructuring initiatives. In the past week, DiDi and leading taxi companies rolled out a partnership in Shanghai which now connects qualified taxi drivers and cars directly onto DiDi's private-car hailing program. As a result riders will enjoy quality service from experienced taxi drivers who in turn benefit from higher income. We also launched an initiative where riders may donate their mileage points on DiDi to a taxi driver health-check program, with enthusiastic response from our passengers. Cheng Wei also joined a panel with Anthony Tan, co-founder and CEO of Southeast Asia's Grab, at GMIC. They shared with audience the progress of the international partnership between the two companies, and reaffirmed their belief in a mobility ecology that celebrates diversity, collaboration and sustainability.
