The Future Of New Business Is Disrupting Old Business

TedTed
in The OT Bullpen
FYI: There are many lessons to be learned from Uber, the taxi- ­ and car-hailing start-up that came out of nowhere and is valued at $41 billion. Less than three years ago, Uber had zero drivers. Now it has more than 160,000 active drivers who have collected $656.8 million in fares (net of what they pay Uber).
Regards,
Ted

If and when Uber goes public, the Linkster is on board !
