HYPE Transport Systems, Inc. one of the newest all Filipino transport network companies (TNC) recently held its first ever HYPE FEST, a gathering of drivers, operators, and the public; as the TNC goes full swing in its operations to serve the riding public, at the SMX Convention Center, Mall of Asia Complex.

Attended by thousands, HYPE FEST brought together the entire community in an afternoon and early evening of entertainment, fun, games, and camaraderie; highlighted by the appearance of Mr. Piolo Pascual, HYPE ambassador; and the raffling off of various items from the sponsors; and a brand new Toyota Vios to a lucky event-goer.
In his message to the attendees, Mr. Nicanor Escalante, HYPE Transport Systems, Inc. President said, “When we first envisioned HYPE, we had a vision to provide the Filipino riding public a viable choice. We wanted the Filipinos to have the power to choose the most affordable, the safest, the most convenient, and with the most number of transport options possible.”
“We are proud to say that as the Filipino riding public has begun to support HYPE, more and more of our drivers — both TNVS and taxi cabs; will continue to enjoy more and more earnings by using the app, and will most definitely enjoy more surprises from us and our partners,” Escalante further said.
During his speech, Mr. Escalante further announced a promo-incentive for drivers who complete a pre-determined number of trips that might just win them up to One Million Pesos in prizes. Miss Jennifer Silan, HYPE Chief Operating Officer also presented a number of promo-incentive schemes for the riding public.
