Lyft was founded in June 2012 by Logan Green and John Zimmer to improve people’s lives with the world’s best transportation. Lyft is the fastest growing rideshare company in the U.S. and is available to 95 percent of the US population as well as in Ontario, Canada. Lyft is preferred by drivers and passengers for its safe and friendly experience, and its commitment to effecting positive change for the future of our cities. Lyft is also carbon-neutral, meaning that a decision to ride with Lyft is a decision to take a cleaner transportation option.

Lyft is tagged in 18 assets.
