Taxipedia, a German startup that has developed a mobile app for calling taxis and getting discounted fares, was awarded a Skolkovo Foundation grant last week, reported Tass-Telecom last week. The ceremony was held at the Singapore campus of INSEAD, a top ranking international business school with its main campus in Fontainebleau, France.
Taxipedia was chosen from among 6 other participants to receive the $33,000 cash award from Skolkovo along with a free trip to Moscow for the whole team in order to acquaint them with Skolkovo, the innovation hub under completion near Moscow, where the startup could possibly become a resident.
