Lauren Hamilton is the Founder & General Manager of Ride Skipper, Dubai’s on-demand chauffeur service that drives customers in their own cars. Inspired by her own experience after a C-section, Lauren set out to build a safer, more reliable alternative to the inconsistent safety-driver segment. Today, Ride Skipper operates 24/7 with a fully employed, rigorously trained driver team, known for its hallmarks of safety, hygiene, and communication. In just 18 months, the business has grown from 6 drivers and a WhatsApp booking system to 30+ drivers and a mobile application, with ambitious growth plans.
