Collaborate Corporation Limited (ASX:CL8) is pleased to announce that its DriveMyCar business has signed an agreement with ORIX Australia Corporation Limited (ORIX) for ORIX vehicles to be rented through the DriveMyCar platform to private and corporate rental customers. The first vehicles will be made available in Sydney in March 2017, with launches in Melbourne and Brisbane to follow shortly afterwards.

DriveMyCar will specifically target corporate customers with a localised marketing campaign for the ORIX vehicles.
ORIX will use the DriveMyCar inspection app to streamline vehicle handovers providing time savings for customers, DriveMyCar and ORIX.
ORIX is a part of the global ORIX Group. The ORIX Group is the largest Fleet Management group in Asia Pacific with over 1,100 offices and 800,000 assets under lease and management throughout the region.
