Where To San Francisco? A D8 Discussion about Innovation for Small Business

Event Information

Cruise + Six D8 Community Leaders discuss how innovation from Cruise will shape the future of small business

About this event

Join Cruise and six community leaders from San Francisco District 8, for a compelling, in-depth discussion about the challenges being faced by small business in the city right now, and how new technology being developed by Cruise will transform the landscape and offer those businesses new opportunities to better connect with their customers.

The California DMV has approved Cruise’s Driverless Testing Permit. After years of careful testing, thoughtful development, and robust validation, Cruise is now taking the natural next step and slowly beginning fully driverless testing with zero emission vehicles in San Francisco.

In this 8th in a series of citywide webinars, Moderator Vas Kiniris, the Director of Business Development at NEXTSF, will be joined by Chhavi Sahni, Public Affairs Manager at Cruise, and the six District 8 leaders.

San Francisco District 8 is comprised of Glen Park, Diamond Heights, Noe Valley, Mission Dolores, and the Castro.

5. Chhavi Sahni will discuss with the community leaders about how the technology that Cruise will soon be debuting can provide solutions to many of the issues that merchants are facing.

6. Attendees will receive a survey following the conclusion of the webinar, seeking their feedback and providing next-step links so they can stay informed and participate in future events relating to the roll out of Cruise’s new technology.

*Attendees are encouraged to post their questions during the discussion via the Q&A portal. Questions will be forwarded to the moderators.

Wonder what’s going on with the French restaurant on the corner of Chenery. It never reopened.
