Head of Sales, Niall Carson, said that Hailo for Business was an obvious step for the company, which has been in the Irish market for nearly four years and has continued to grow rapidly in the consumer segment. Hailo now carries 45,000 passengers every day and has over 600,000 registered users. Hailo has completed over 13 million jobs since launch in 2012, carrying over 20 million passengers.

“At Hailo, we now have over 10,000 drivers nationwide, making us Ireland’s largest SPSV (small public service vehicle) fleet. Our business model, which works for both taxi drivers and consumers by making the taxi hailing process more convenient and traceable, has led to significant gains in the Irish market in the last year. At peak hours in Ireland – a Hailo hail is accepted every 2 seconds. This innovative service, that prioritises convenience, is a good fit for business users, looking to travel between meetings or prebooking for airport trips. We are currently signing up dozens of new accounts each week and it is the fastest area of growth in the company right now. Hailo for Business will continue to be a key focus for us as we scale in Ireland. ”

Speakers included Anthony Kelly, Founder, Glofox; Enda Gunnel, CEO, Pinergy; Clare Dillon, Start-Up Programme Lead, Microsoft and David Craig, Founder, Digital Design Studio.
