John Winning is the head of Winning Appliances, one of the country’s leading online retailers – the company is turning over more than $20 million a year.
Winning is a big fan of technology, and his favourite piece of tech lets him catch a ride easily, no matter where he is.
“Uber is one of the greatest ideas and pieces of technology I have ever used – it just works, and works brilliantly. Users love it, drivers love it, it works perfectly and they keep improving it with features that improve something that you thought was already perfect.”
“That being said, I don’t use it every time and still catch plenty of cabs, but it is amazing when travelling overseas in say London or NY when you don’t know the number for a cab.”
