Travis Kalanick. Lecture "Uber CEO: The Future of Cars in the City"

CEO and founder of Uber Travis Kalanick shares his idea of how we can transport more people in fewer cars.
Travis Kalanick created Uber in 2009 as a local taxi service in San Francisco. But he has been working on the idea of a peer-2-peer service that would link the product to the client, the seller to the buyer for a while before that. While being a student at UCLA, Kalanick created Scour, and shortly after that Red Swoosh - projects both based on file sharing. In the end of 2008, at a tech conference in Paris, Kalanick came up with a new idea. The future billionaire thought it would be handy to just push a button on your smartphone and be able to get a car in minutes. It took him just a year to create and launch Uber after that.
