SUMMARY:Why Carpooling Never Took Off - Waiheke
DESCRIPTION:Carpooling has long been promoted as a solution to congestion and emissions\, yet it has never truly succeeded at scale. Why not? \nThis talk explores the key reasons carpooling has struggled to take off — from trust and safety challenges to issues with design and incentive structures. \nThe session will also introduce Carpoolin\, a New Zealand–built platform created for everyday travel\, outlining the design decisions\, safety features\, and business model behind it. \nThe event will conclude with an open Q&A with the audience.
