Resumen
El presente proyecto propone la implementación de LinkRide, una solución digital de
movilidad compartida, dirigida a oficinistas del centro financiero de Lima. Este segmento,
afectado por la congestión vehicular, la inseguridad del transporte público y los altos niveles
de estrés asociados al traslado diario demanda una alternativa segura, eficiente y sostenible.
LinkRide es una aplicación móvil que conecta a usuarios con rutas similares para compartir
vehículo, mediante un modelo de membresía mensual, validación de identidad y rutas
optimizadas. El sistema integra tecnologías como geolocalización en tiempo real y botones de
emergencia, buscando incrementar la confianza y seguridad del usuario. Asimismo, promueve
el uso de vehículos eléctricos e híbridos, contribuyendo a la reducción de emisiones de gases
de efecto invernadero y alineándose con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS).
A partir del estudio del entorno urbano de Lima, entrevistas a usuarios y análisis de modelos
internacionales, se identificaron cuatro ejes clave del problema: tiempo de traslado,
seguridad, impacto ambiental y costo económico. Con base en ello, se diseñó una propuesta
centrada en mejorar la experiencia del usuario y generar un impacto colectivo. LinkRide se
alinea además con la tendencia global hacia la economía colaborativa y la movilidad
inteligente.
Desde una perspectiva económica, se espera reducir hasta en 40% los costos mensuales de
transporte de los usuarios. En el ámbito social, busca mejorar el bienestar emocional y la
productividad laboral, disminuyendo el estrés derivado del tráfico.
Finalmente, el modelo de negocio planteado es escalable y replicable en otras ciudades del
país, aprovechando el marco regulatorio en evolución y la alta penetración tecnológica.
LinkRide representa una alternativa concreta y viable frente al caos vehicular, y una apuesta
por un modelo de ciudad más justa, conectada y sostenible.
The present project proposes the implementation of LinkRide, a digital car-sharing solution aimed at office workers in Lima’s financial district. This segment, affected by traffic congestion, the insecurity of public transportation, and the high levels of stress associated with daily commuting, demands a safe, efficient, and sustainable alternative. LinkRide is a mobile application that connects users with similar routes to share a vehicle through a monthly membership model, identity verification, and optimized routes. The system integrates technologies such as real-time geolocation and emergency buttons, aiming to increase user trust and safety. In addition, it promotes the use of electric and hybrid vehicles, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Based on the study of Lima’s urban environment, user interviews, and the analysis of international models, four key problem areas were identified: commuting time, safety, environmental impact, and economic cost. Accordingly, a proposal was designed focusing on improving the user experience and generating collective impact. LinkRide also aligns with the global trend toward the sharing economy and smart mobility. From an economic perspective, the project is expected to reduce users’ monthly transportation costs by up to 40%. In social terms, it seeks to improve emotional well-being and work productivity by reducing stress caused by traffic. Finally, the proposed business model is scalable and replicable in other cities of the country, leveraging the evolving regulatory framework and high technological penetration. LinkRide represents a concrete and viable alternative to vehicular chaos and a commitment to a fairer, more connected, and sustainable city model.
