With the rapid success of Uber, venture capital investments in Uber “like” start ups surged in 2014 and 2015.  One industry that received investment was the dry cleaning and laundry industry, with app providers offering pick-up and delivery to a home or office, all coordinated thru an app.  Alliance wanted outside perspective and analysis on whether the rise of the app providers was a threat or an opportunity.
