Story

Uber was conceived on a snowy night in Paris. Uber CEO Travis Kalanick and friend Garrett Camp were stuck outside in the snow and unable to hail a cab. They vowed to make a mobile app that allowed you to push a button and hail a cab. The rest is history.
Uber started off as a company and brand about convenience. The idea and its execution defined convenience. Uber skyrocketed in popularity and became a global brand.
FACTSUber is a high-tech company that was founded
in 2009. It brilliantly connects the transportation
industry with technology via its ride-sharing app.
It was stated as the highest valued venture-supported company.
