Yes, absolutely. Transport accounts for 60-85% of CO₂ emissions from events. Sharing rides significantly reduces this impact, benefiting both the climate and event sustainability.
Our mission is to cut down CO₂ emissions from transportation to events. Since transport is the main polluter for events, we aim to provide a simple, effective way for visitors to share rides. This benefits the environment, saves money, and builds visitor engagement.
Slinger is currently active across Europe and the United Kingdom, with ambitions for global expansion to support sustainable event mobility worldwide.
Our headquarters are located in Amsterdam, Netherlands, at Overtoom 323. Our core team works from this office, while other team members work remotely. Together, we are a flexible and dedicated team committed to creating sustainable impact in the events industry.
