          <p>
            Together with Enterprise Nation, Uber launched three exciting initiatives to empower drivers, couriers,
            restaurants and new food entrepreneurs.
          </p>
          <p>
            Whether helping a driver to build a new business or a restaurant on its path to recovery, the
            programmes were designed to give people the support they needed to get to where they want to be.
