Vugo, the rideshare and taxi advertising company, was named one of the Top 25 companies in the eMerge Americas 2024 Global Startup Accelerator and Showcase, announced on the Launchpad stage on April 19 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
eMerge Americas marked its 10th year with this event. The 110 startups selected for the program completed a six-week accelerator before the conference, then exhibited side by side in Startup Alley on April 18 and 19. All 110 competed for a $520,000 grand prize from Florida Funders, BIP Ventures and Medina Ventures; the field was narrowed to 25 semi-finalists, then to five finalists who pitched on the main stage. Congratulations to EVQLV, the grand prize winner, and to every finalist.
What Vugo showed
Vugo puts brands in front of people on the move. Inside the car, in-vehicle displays reach passengers in rideshare, taxi and fleet vehicles. Outside, vehicle wraps and digital rooftop displays carry the message through the streets, neighborhoods and venues where people go. Vugo's TripIntent® platform uses the context of where the vehicle is to decide which message plays first.
Thank you, Miami
Vugo thanks eMerge Americas, its accelerator team, the judges and the investors behind the prize. Brands and agencies that want to talk about reaching people in Miami and beyond can get in touch with Vugo.
