From my understanding is that if you request a UberPitch in the Sydney CBD between 10am and 2pm, you will have a 7 minute ride to pitch your idea. 7 Minutes is plenty of time to travel from Wynyard to Central, and you get a free conversation out of it. There are only 7 cars so spots will obviously be limited, but I would love to see an Ozbargainer get a free ride out of this.
Referee and referrer get 50% off first/next 2 Uber Reserve Rides.
Referrer gets $300-$500 once referee completes at least 30-40 deliveries.
Referees may be eligible for special offers based on the number of trips or deliveries they made after signing up through an invitation.
7 Minutes maybe from Central to Wynyard, 40 minutes from Wynyard to Central. haha.
7 minutes?? Tell him he's dreamin'.

@ apexplosive … your dreaming
I don't understand this Uber promotion of pitching ideas.
The way I understand investment, ideas are a dime a dozen, it's the EXECUTION that's worth money.
The way this is marketed, all you need is some idea and then your life will be changed forever. What's to stop them from stealing your idea? Even if they fund your idea, how much equity do you get in the business? They may decide you only get 10% (to be fair, if you're only contributing an idea and none of the execution, 10% may be reasonable).
The only way this would be worth it is if you have an existing startup that's looking for funding in exchange for equity.
Good luck. Its probably going to be quicker to walk to your destination than wait for an Uber.
You obviously haven't seen the traffic in the CBD lately with the road closure for the new light rail construction
