Guillermo Cornejo
Guillermo Cornejo is the co-founder and CEO of Riders Share, the largest peer-to-peer motorcycle rental platform in the U.S. A Peruvian immigrant who never drove a car before he learned to ride, he crashed a Kawasaki Ninja 250 at 80 mph at age 23 and walked away with a hand full of pins and an obsession. After years analyzing high-risk auto loans at Nissan, GM and Hyundai, he built a marketplace that lets motorcycle owners rent out idle bikes to vetted riders, using credit and driving data to price crash risk. He started it during a full-scholarship MBA at UCLA Anderson, moved the company to Austin, and grew it to thousands of listings and hundreds of thousands of registered riders.
Riders Share
Riders Share is the largest peer-to-peer motorcycle rental marketplace in the U.S., connecting motorcycle owners with vetted riders. Founded by Guillermo Cornejo after a costly crash left him unable to afford a new bike, the Austin-based platform turns underused garages full of Harleys, Ducatis and BMWs into income for owners and affordable rides for the 20+ million ex-riders who want to get back on two wheels. It layers machine-learning rider screening, proprietary insurance backed by Lloyd's of London, and roadside assistance on top of a simple Airbnb-for-motorcycles model.
