Winning entry in Future Lions student ad contest from the team of Andrea Raia, Andrea Zanino, Pierpaolo Bivio and Francesco Sguinzi from the Fondazione Accademia di Comunicazione, Italy. Summary: In large cities, the average response time for emergency services is more than seven minutes – which can be the difference between life and death. With the rapid growth of Uber fleets in major cities, Uber cars can arrive at a person’s location in about three minutes.

Once at the scene, the driver can provide first aid until the ambulance arrives.
