Showtime’s new series follows Uber’s former CEO, Travis Kalanick (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt), during his rise to the top and subsequent downfall.
Yesterday, Uber was denied a licence to operate in London, which jeopardises one of its most lucrative markets. That’s not the only headache currently facing the company.
Travis Kalanick raises $400 million. Cape Flats free wi-fi. Instagram founder on $1 billion sale. Apple to buy Sonos? Kanye the ‘Christian genius billionaire’. Trump wants reality show.
Following a series of PR nightmares, Travis Kalanick stepped down as Uber CEO back in 2017. One PR nightmare involved a pretty epic meltdown.
Travis Kalanick might have left Uber less than a year ago, but he has already announced new plans for another venture.
Google, the search-and-advertising behemoth, and Uber, the five-year-old startup remaking urban transportation, may have more in common than you may think, and there are some good reasons why Uber is as popular as it is.
