Distinction Between gRide vs OPM
gRide and Oyster Point Mobility (OPM) are both programs managed by Genentech. While they are closely linked—OPM grew out of gRide—they serve a different purpose and different audiences in South San Francisco. Despite serving different audiences, these programs have a shared purpose of providing innovative and sustainable commute options.
