 Drivers- It is essential to have a sufficient number of them to be able to provide the
customer proposition (timely pick-up at low cost). They bring their own cars into the value
proposition for which Uber does not have to outlay any capital costs.
 Investors/venture capitalists - bring the initial rounds of funding to the table. The
funding helps to develop the functionality, apps, algorithms, driver-less cars, but is also used
for customers acquisition costs and other expenditures.
