Ed Kargbo
Yellow Cab Austin
Ed Kargbo is a native Texan and has spent more than 10 years in the hospitality industry. Although he was born and raised in Houston, when the opportunity arose to relocate to Austin and take over the largest ground fleet, on-demand transportation company, he took it.
Ed is currently the president of Austin Yellow Cab and is a Board Member for the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce. He is excited about the future of transportation in Austin and is looking forward to helping resolve issues surrounding traffic and mobility. Since serving on the Austin Chamber of Commerce, he has become increasingly aware of the broader issues surrounding transportation in larger American cities.
“The most impactful memory from my job that has stayed with me was the recognition my team received from ADAPT (a disability advocacy group) for the continued work we do to improve services to those with disabilities. Austin is dynamic and innovative. I’m extremely proud that Austin is very thoughtful and considerate about how we bridge the great advancements in technology and the humanity of our citizenry. We’re a shining example for the world. Solutions are coming and I’m excited to be a part of the solution.”
