Quinn Thomas Hospital

Since last year, Quinn Thomas has supported Uber throughout a collaborative process of working with city leaders to integrate emerging transportation network services into Portland’s city code. In addition to supporting in-market media relations, Quinn Thomas is brokering conversations between Uber and stakeholders across the regional transportation ecosystem, including conversations with minority groups and disabilities rights advocates. What has been fascinating for us to watch is how many people recognize that the time has come for change. Even if that change needed to be pushed. Like many of you, we’re excited about Uber’s arrival in Portland. Yes, they are our clients. But like the 12,000 local supporters who have called for city officials to update our outdated regulations, we are simply unabashed fans of the platform and what it represents â€" better, safer, more reliable, and more equitable transportation options. No matter how unique its rhythms, Portland knows when socioeconomic forces are on to something good. Our great city of change, innovation, and creative thinking is ready. To address the right problem, it’s even willing to let change occasionally come from outside its walls. We encourage you to join the conversation and the more than 12,000 citizens who have pledged their support for Uber in Portland.
