UBER History
In 2009, Uber was founded as Ubercab by Garrett Camp, a computer programmer and the co-founder of StumbleUpon, and Travis Kalanick, who sold his Red Swoosh startup for $19 million in 2007.
After Camp and his friends spent $800 hiring a private driver, he wanted to find a way to reduce the cost of direct transportation. He realized that sharing the cost with people could make it affordable, and his idea morphed into Uber. Kalanick joined Camp and gives him “full credit for the idea” of Uber.[16] The prototype was built by Camp and his friends, Oscar Salazar and Conrad Whelan, with Kalanick as the “mega advisor” to the company.
