Uber

Uber is a ride-sharing platform founded in 2009 by Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp, headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company operates a peer-to-peer transportation marketplace connecting riders with independent drivers via mobile app, serving over 70 countries. Beyond ride-sharing, Uber has expanded into food delivery (Uber Eats), freight logistics (Uber Freight), and autonomous vehicle research. Publicly listed on the NYSE since May 2019, Uber employs approximately 80,000 people across offices in San Francisco, New York, London, Singapore, and other major cities. The company has disrupted traditional taxi services and remains the dominant global mobility platform, though it navigates ongoing regulatory and labor challenges in many markets.
