Uber has grown rapidly by identifying poorly served transportation markets and developing a platform that provides rides with a simple tap of a button. It leverages smartphones and infrastructure from companies like Google and Apple to precisely locate and connect riders and drivers. Uber's network of on-demand drivers allows it to efficiently match supply and demand in real-time. It continues innovating and adapting its services to new markets and user needs.

The presentation describes the business model canvas of UBER as a part of the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Module wherein the Problems faced by UBER is mentioned along with the Recommendations which they can follow in order to improve the companies performance.
After getting into an argument over the fare with a local cab driver in Mexico, Travis Kalanick jumped out of the moving cab. The incident would leave him with a dislike for conventional cabs. A few years later, he founded Uber. Under him, Uber – went from 3 drivers to 3.9 million drivers, became the highest valued private company in the world and made him a famous billionaire, all within seven years
Uber- initially known for its taxi booking services, has expanded to on-demand food delivery, freight, and much more. The brand is now recognized globally and is on continuous growth towards attracting more customers and revenue. Read the blog to know the success story of Uber and what makes this brand so lovable.
When we think about the online taxi industry, Uber is the first name that comes to mind. With its perfect solution to the much-needed target audience at the right time, Uber has been able to disrupt the taxi industry and rule the market.
The idea of Uber was developed from the owner’s personal experience when they faced difficulty finding a cab. Since its launch, Uber has constantly improved its services to ensure that it can deliver the best experience to all types of customers. From the target audience in wheelchairs to those who want to travel with their pets and babies, Uber cabs are designed for all.
If you’re considering taxi booking app development and planning to enter the ride-hailing market, Uber’s success story is a must-read. This blog will provide detailed insights into how this simple idea became a billion-dollar company.
In this presentation , we try to understand the business model of Uber with digital strategy as the backbone. Also we look into the financial strategy of Uber , the challenges it is facing

2-1 Introduction
Uber Technologies Inc. (Uber) is a tech startup that provides ride-sharing services by
facilitating a connection between independent contractors (drivers) and riders with the use
of an app. Uber has expanded its operations to 425 cities in 72 countries around the world
and is valued at around $70 billion, making it the world’s most valuable startup.
Approximately 30 million users use Uber’s services monthly. Uber has become a key player
in the sharing economy, a new economic model in which independent contractors rent out
their underutilized resources such as vehicles or lodging to other consumers. The sharing
economy is quickly becoming an alternative to owning resources outright. Because its
services cost less than taking a traditional taxi, Uber and similar ride-sharing services have
upended the taxi industry. The company has experienced resounding success and is
looking toward expansion both internationally and within the United States.
However, Uber’s rapid success is creating challenges in the form of legal and regulatory,
social, and technical obstacles. The taxi industry, for instance, is arguing that Uber has an
unfair advantage because it does not face the same licensing requirements as they do.
Others accuse Uber of not vetting their drivers, creating potentially unsafe situations. Some
major cities are banning ride-sharing services like Uber because of these various concerns.
Additionally, Uber has faced various lawsuits, including a lawsuit filed by its independent
contractors. Its presence in the market has influenced lawmakers to draft new regulations to
govern this “app-driven” ride-sharing system. Legislation can often hinder a company’s
expansion opportunities because of the resources it must expend to comply with regulatory
requirements. Uber has been highly praised for giving independent contractors an opportunity to earn money as long as they have a car, while also offering convenient ways for consumers to get around at lower costs. Although its “Surge Pricing” technique has been criticized for charging higher fares during popular times, it is also becoming a model for other companies such as Zappos in how it compensates its call center employees. The biggest issues Uber faces include legal action because drivers are not licensed, rider and driver safety,protection and security of customer and driver information, and a lack of adequate insurance coverage. To be successful, Uber must address these issues in its marketing strategy so it can reduce resistance as it expands into other cities.

2-2 Background
In 2009 Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp developed a smartphone application to connect
drivers-for-hire with people needing rides to a destination in their city. Earlier in the year the
founders had attended the inaugural address in Washington, D.C. and could not hail a taxi.
They recognized the need for a convenient, low-cost transportation service. This innovative
service was originally founded.
Since the proliferation of taxi booking android app development companies in usa, people's daily commutes and travel habits have changed significantly. As smartphone penetration increases, new ridesharing and carpooling apps are revolutionizing the taxi industry. Shared rides are becoming increasingly popular as a means of transportation because of their positive environmental impact. Ultimately, keep a careful note of what they've been able to do before building your own ridesharing app.
GAFAnomics Tesla Volume 2 - Is Tesla the disruptor we need?Fabernovel
Valued at 210 billion dollars, that is to say the valuations of Ford, GM, Draimler, PSA and Uber combined, Tesla, the leading company in electric car sales, recently became the world's leading manufacturer ahead of Toyota. It is because the company has succeeded in breaking the codes of a century-old industry, symbol of the industrial model of the 20th century, that Tesla deserves its place at the top of the list of the most disruptive companies. Fabernovel presents its new study "Is Tesla the disruptor we need? which reveals the secrets of its success but also provides thought on the future of mobility, which the company has not disrupted to date.

Fabernovel analyse les tendances publicitaires du super bowl de 2020Fabernovel
Aux États-Unis le Super Bowl est le plus grand événement sportif de l’année, suivi par près d'un américain sur trois. La compétition n'y est pas seulement sportive, elle est également publicitaire. À 5,6 millions de dollars les 30 secondes d'antenne, les marques ne regardent pas à la dépense et font de leur campagne de véritables spectacles. Si bien que pour 23% des américains, les publicités sont devenues la partie la plus importante du Super Bowl, contre 35% pour le jeu et 9% pour le show de mi-temps. Cette 54ème édition n'a pas dérogé à la règle !
Alors, pourquoi tant d’engouement autour des campagnes publicitaires du Super Bowl ?
Et quelles sont les tendances 2020 ?
À découvrir dans notre analyse.
Amazon: friend or foe?
This presentation looks at the ways to work with Amazon, its opportunities and threats for brands and the winning distribution strategies for you.
Fabernovel is pleased to release this new edition of “Gafanomics Quarterly”, our publication which offers you every quarter a transversal review of the earnings releases and strategic announcements of the disruptive Tech giants.
This last quarter was somewhat special in our view, ushering in new times at several levels : a new fiscal year, a new decade and the accelerating change towards new value patterns.
After a challenging Q3, the Tech segment outperformed all other sectors on the Street with an impressive cumulated market cap gain of more than $1,300bn for our sample of 20 firms (i.e. the equivalent of Microsoft market value or the annual GDP of Spain). This was underpinned by the robust quarterly delivery of most of the Tech leaders with a value pattern still favouring user and top-line growth pattern compared to margin expansion. Our sample of Tech disruptors posted a median revenue growth of 23% and 17% EBIT growth in Q4 19, with very similar figures for FY19.
Is this outperformance set to last?
Beyond their economic power, the Tech leaders face several challenges. Facing rising maturity and competition, they are increasingly criticized on their dark side and their Achilles heel: Corporate and Social Responsibility. Several of them recorded in the last months the departures of their founders (Travis Kalanick at Uber, Jack Ma from Alibaba, Larry Page and Sergey Brin at Google, Adam Neumann at WeWork). Softbank has seen the arrival of activist investors in their capital.
The Green tide was the most striking new theme emerging from Q4 releases. Many tech players (Microsoft, Amazon, …) have started to communicate on the environmental impact. Greenwashing or strategic reality? Probably both. But we hope that the latter will prevail! Given their deep pockets, innovation culture and infrastructure power, Tech giants are probably among the few Corporates that can save the planet. The Coronavirus crisis has shown that software can help adapt in critical situation with new practices (more remote work) that can reduce carbon emissions.
In a new world where transparency and responsibility will increasingly drive valuation, we are convinced that this Green horizon can be a structuring value path for GAFAM & Co but also an area where they can join forces with other Corporates.
Kereitsu of modern times, Softbank has pioneered with its Vision Fund an Innovation at scale strategy powered by an agressive venture investments. It has thus opened an alternative way to GAFAM’s model that relied primarily on an organic technology model amplified by some bolt-on M&A.
SoftBank’s transformation case is in our view particularly interesting at a time when the European startups and innovation ecosystems need to catch-up with their American and Asian and many Corporates are entering in « coopetition » with Investment funds, launching or reinventing their ventures set-up in order to address their innovation at scale challenge.
For sure, like all disruptors Softbank has been somewhat extreme in its approach (especially in terms of risk aversion, fundraising, inflationary valuation) and not always exemplary in its practices (CSR, governance, financial disclosure...). Nevertheless we are witnessing some interesting read-across for European players, especially as vision, risk taking and entrepreneurial approaches are in our view critical success factors in the new economy.
Thus one of our wishes for 2020 is that some European Softbank may emerge and create a new way for innovation at scale.
Retail Apocalypse. Voilà comment Business Insider qualifiait il y a quelques semaines la situation actuelle (et future ?) du retail. Et à raison : aux US plus de 8600 magasins physiques doivent fermer en 2019. La France n’est pas épargnée - en témoignent les fermetures de huit enseignes Gap et plus de 30 Conforama cet été, pour n'en citer que quelques unes.
Dans le même temps, les Digitally Native Vertical Brands - ces ovnis du e-commerce devenus leaders aussi inspirants qu’anxiogènes - envahissent les rues. Littéralement : sur les 84 DNVB à fort potentiel identifiées en 2016 par Andy Dunn dans son article phare, 44 comptent désormais au moins un magasin physique. Ici aussi : difficile de se balader dans Paris aujourd’hui sans passer devant une boutique Sezane, Le Slip Français ou Jimmy Fairly.
Pour passer à l'échelle, il semblerait que les DNVB doivent faire tomber le “D”. “Halo effect” disent les Américains pour décrire ce phénomène qui consiste à ouvrir une boutique physique pour considérablement augmenter les ventes online. Mais alors...
Entre apocalypse et terre promise, à quoi ressemble vraiment le retail de demain ?
Quel modèle, quels KPIs et quelles conditions pour émerger ?
Présentée lors du MobileOne 2019 par Benoît AUDOUARD, responsable projet myCANAL chez Canal+ et Julie ROLLIN-MOUSTÉOU, Senior Product Manager chez Fabernovel.
Fabernovel is pleased to share this playbook reviewing various offerings of
WeChat advertising and the possibilities for brands to reach and engage the tech
savvy consumers.
Since the inception of WeChat, Tencent has been very cautious about introducing
promotional messages on its platform. The Super APP is envisioned more as a
productive toolkit for the users' daily life than a source of media revenue stream itself.
On contrary to 1 ad for every 10 posts on Facebook, the Shenzhen tech giant makes
sure its users exposed to maximum 2 ads per day.
That being said, WeChat advertising offerings have become so comprehensive and
impactful to capture the attention of Chinese consumers from both home and
abroad. To build successful WeChat strategies, it is now crucial for business to master
these various ad formats, ad touch points, ad features, bidding tactics and audience
targeting possibilities.

[Extract] Study The We Company: is real estate a disruptable industry?Fabernovel
A lot has been said about WeWork, whether it is about its controversial CEO, its delusional valuation, its abyssal losses, its obscure governance or its esoteric motto. But, as analysts passionated by new models and disruption players, we could not stay away from the debate surrunding the one startup that has shaken the real estate market.
Our study does not predict whether Wework will become public, or whether it will actually survive. But, it aims at describing how WeWork has made coworking a thing, which lessons should be drawn from its model (whether considered tech or not tech) , and which possible future can be imagined for the industry.

Study Ardian & Fabernovel - The Augmented Infrastructure: Digital for climate?Fabernovel
Foreword:
2020 is tomorrow. Once a synonym for “future”,
this key date is a symbol for new dawn where
the issue of long term value can not be but linked
to digital sobriety and technological responsibility.
At Fabernovel, that is why when working on transformation projects, services design or engineering, we follow a triple approach: entrepreneurial, digital but first and foremost responsible.
I am convinced that this approach can be applied
to infrastructures. Regarding carbon impact issue, beyond mitigation measures and energy recycling,
we need to act upstream by rethinking the way we design services and technology.
Innovation more than ever, has to be thought in a global ecosystem perspective to prevent drifts and limit impact.
Let’s build this inclusive future together.

Services urbains : faut il vraiment penser utilisateur ?Fabernovel
Ils investissent l'espace, orchestrent les flux, bouleversent les usages et uniformisent nos villes : les géants du numérique saisissent l'espace urbain et nous forcent à requestionner notre façon de concevoir les services urbains.
A quoi doit ressembler une ville à l'ère du numérique ?
Peut-on vraiment "penser utilisateur" dans un contexte urbain ?
Comment réconcilier besoins individuels et communautaires ?
Nous sommes convaincus que c'est par le design que nous répondrons à ces nouveaux enjeux.
Pour échanger avec nous sur ces questions essentielles, nous avons eu le plaisir de recevoir Agnes Kwek, ambassadrice Design pour la ville de Singapour et Dominique Sciamma, Directeur et Doyen de Strate Ecole de Design et Président de l'APCI.
Découvrez dans cette keynote les nouveaux paradigmes de la Ville moderne, et contactez-nous pour échanger davantage sur ce sujet passionnant !
[Fabernovel study] New economy, new KPI: the customer eraFabernovel
By creating some disruption in value chains and favouring the emergence of new models, the digital revolution has induced deep changes in the way value is created and shared. It is more and more decorrelated from short term financial performance. That should push organizations and investors to review their monitoring and valuation of innovative projects, as well as pay attention to the value of some intangible assets, such as customer capital, talent capital, ecosystem, software or societal and environmental impact.
Customer centricity was at the heart of the digital revolution, which explains why among these assets, customer capital is the easiest to value by investors. However, if we’ve focused our analysis in this presentation on this asset, this should not overshadow the other key levers that organizations need now for their transformation to be more and more systemic.
Digital native economic models have been built by design according to an extra-financial approach with monitoring and communication already focused on customer KPIs, and sometimes on talent or ecosystem metrics. By contrast, if players other than digital natives have initiated a deep transformation of their model, they have not yet adapted their reporting styles, even though this would enable them to better allocate resources and value the customer acquisition strategy.
Combined with this document, we are launching a new index dedicated to testing your own maturity regarding customer capital (how you’ve integrated this approach, how customer-centric your reporting is, how you use it). Once this assessment has been completed, this presentation will help drive you along the path towards a new reporting approach. Additionally, it will help you harness your organization's potential, which we've identified at both the internal and external levels, while focusing on stakeholder engagement and value creation levers.

The Future of Corporate Learning: from Training to Learning ExperienceFabernovel
With innovation cycles becoming ever shorter, companies are faced with a new challenge: keeping their key skills up to date in real time. This strategic dimension of ‘workforce planning’ cannot rely solely on recruitment; existing employees must be able to continuously learn new things. As such, the number one skill companies now look for is the capacity to learn, and companies are particularly looking for ‘learning animals’, a term coined by Google.

Vers une nouvelle ère de vos expériencesFabernovel
L’exposition Vasarely en cours actuellement au Centre Pompidou à Paris nous le rappelle : l’art est aussi affaire de méthode, de système, de programme. L’oeuvre de l’artiste hongrois-français ne doit rien au hasard : dès sa première période artistique, il met au point un alphabet plastique, lui permettant des combinaisons infinies de couleurs et de formes - garantissant une harmonie entre toutes ses créations, tout en rendant possible leur “industrialisation”. Digression ? Non, car les enjeux du design d’expérience aujourd’hui sont précisément ceux-là.
Cinquante-neuf ans après “Alphabet VR”, ce sont les expériences qui doivent passer à l’échelle. Et c’est exactement le propos du design system : une sorte de “toolbox” digitale à destination des designers, mais aussi des développeurs, chefs de projets et quiconque serait engagé de près ou de loin dans la conception d’une nouvelle expérience. Fini de bricoler des bouts d’expérience par-ci, par-là : le design system permet d’assurer la cohérence et l’harmonie sur tous les pans d’expérience d’une marque. Un outil plus qu’essentiel à l’ère de l’expérience.

Slack is surely an incredible company with tremendous growth perspectives. But what does it mean in terms of work ideology? How can a single application transform culture, work relationships and, ultimately, entire organizations?
There is a (work) life before Slack... and another one after it: let’s see how Slack has impacted the corporate world.
Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
What is the TDS Return Filing Due Date for FY 2024-25.pdfseoforlegalpillers
It is crucial for the taxpayers to understand about the TDS Return Filing Due Date, so that they can fulfill your TDS obligations efficiently. Taxpayers can avoid penalties by sticking to the deadlines and by accurate filing of TDS. Timely filing of TDS will make sure about the availability of tax credits. You can also seek the professional guidance of experts like Legal Pillers for timely filing of the TDS Return.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

A lot has already been said about Uber. Indeed it seems that a new article about the half-
fascinating, half-scary young giant is published every hour on the internet. So why a study?
It seemed to us that most of current discussions about Uber are driven by ideologies and
belief systems. We wanted to take a step back and just look at it from a business
perspective. What are its secrets? How did it grow so fast? Of course it has unlimited cash,
but isn’t there more to it?
Very bright people have already shared a vast amount of food for thought on the social
and legal impacts of Uber so we won’t be going over these topics here.
Anyhow, whether you want to support Uber, fight it or just understand the world we’re
living in, there is much to learn about this spectacular “coup d’état” in the transportation
world. It’s up to you to make use of this information to serve what you believe is best for
all of us.
Enjoy the ride!
We’re only talking business here.

WHAT ARE THE YOUNG GIANT’S SECRETS ?
HOW DID IT GROW SO FAST TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD ?
9. Since its beginning Uber has been behaving like a virus. Wikipedia defines a virus as “a sub-microscopic
infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of other organisms.” A virus isn’t necessarily
harmful, it is only defined by its ability so self-replicate and spread fast. In Uber’s case the host organisms
are the millions of cars flooding our cities. Uber is infectinghundredseveryday and taking control of
transportation in our growing metropolises.

Uber’s founding idea dates
back to 2008 in Paris at LeWeb
conference, when Travis
Kalanick and Garrett Camp
couldn’t find a taxi in the cold
Paris winter. Impossible to find
a cab to hail, ordering on a
phone was expensive, and they
couldn’t find the nearby taxi
station.
There are three ways to get a
taxi, and none of them
combines low price,
reliable pickup time and
good experience.

Leveraging smartphone’s sensors, Uber is able to precisely locate, identify and connect every car
and every user to its platform. Smartphones are the indispensable tool to Uber’s success, by
bridging the gap between the digital and the physical worlds.
“In the networked world,
the three most important
things are connections,

Marc Andreessen
& Venkatesh Rao
MVP insight: smartphone + car = connected car
An asset-light model
Uber has become a major actor on the connected
car market by simply attaching a smartphone to all
the cars of its fleet. No need to invest billions in
CAPEX when you can leverage existing, customer-
owned assets.
Networks are the new asset
16. Uber created a network of
real-time geolocated riders
and drivers, commonly called
a platform. It gives access to
this network through its app,
in order to efficiently match
demand for transportation
with supply.
Uber: a real-time transportation network
17. As seen in GAFAnomics Season 2, networks
are the winning structure of the 21st century
and are at the core of GAFA’s success.

traditional companies on both revenue
growth and margins.

18. Its network gives Uber a structural competitive advantage over traditional taxi
companies. As explained in GAFAnomics Season 2, Uber embraces 4 Superpowers to
orchestrate and optimize its transportation network.
Magnet enterprise
Aggregating and managing very small
units
–
Networked companies are able to detect,
organize and animate very small units of
value. They outsource value creation.
Real-time enterprise
Instantly tuning value
–
Networked companies use real-timedata
feedback to instantly optimizemarket fit and
improve products’ value.
Infinite enterprise
Shooting for the 100% profit consumer
–
Networked companies use highly scalable
software and services to achieve zero cost
delivery once criticaluser mass is achieved.
Intimate enterprise
Hospitality is the norm
–
Networked companies use customer
knowledge to fine-tune and personalize the
experiences they deliver to each customer.
Large-scale customization is at the heart of
their products.
Unlocking four superpowers
19. 19
In the US, cars remain idle 96% of the time. Uber could have bought a fleet of cars to become a
black car service. Instead it structured itself as a platform to aggregate, sell and monetize this
excess capacity by allowing anyone to opt-in and drive people around with their own cars.

Managing cars’ excess capacity
A very similar approach to
Airbnb’s revolution of the
accommodation market:
“Essentially, we’ve built a
platform to facilitate payments,
reviews, search. […] I like to
think hosts are micro-
entrepreneurs and we give
them a hospitality tool kit.”

Trust and safety are essential parts of the Uber experience. Could you have imagined riding in a
stranger’s car a few years ago? That’s why Uber introduced its rating system, a concept developped
a decade ago by eBay. But it’s also a smart way to delegate the management of its drivers to users
and maintain the standard of service with more than 3 million ratings gathered everyday.
Uber created a feedback loop by asking riders and
drivers to rate each other after each ride. Drivers with
an average rating below 4.6 are at risk of being denied
access to the platform. Uber doesn’t hold the
reputation, drivers do. And Uber doesn’t fire drivers,
riders do when they give drivers less than 4,6 .
DRIVE WELL OR DON’T
THE CUSTOMER IS KING
Most of the extra-services provided by drivers are not
mandatory. Think about free bottles of water or opening
the door. Even wearing a suit ! They’re “suggestions” to
get 5 ratings. Ratings incentivize drivers to please
riders. Hopefully; riders also behave correctly with drivers
to get a good rating.

REACHING LONG-TERM MARKET EQUILIBRIUM
ADAPTING SUPPLY TO DEMAND IN REAL TIME
Uber fixes prices in eachcity based on local data.
Whenever it can, Uber lowers prices to trigger an
increase in demand and decrease drivers’ idle time, thus
maintaining drivers’ hourly rates. In some cities, it cut
prices 5 to 6 times in a 3-year period.
With surge pricing, Uber increases prices in given
areas during excessive demand or low supply:
• Provides an incentive for drivers to flock to empty
neighborhoods while cabs don’t know where the
demand is higher.
• Maintains low pickup time and high utilization in
case of marketstress.
Surge pricing eliminates 2/3 of
unfulfilled requests in a period
of high demand.
REAL-TIME ENTERPRISE
Always priced at the optimum
Uber leverages data to optimize its pricing in real-time and make sure demand and offer
always reach a market equilibrium. Data gathered is relative to rides facilitated, local
transportation offers and users’ price elasticity. Pricing is a tough challenge for Uber: drivers
want to maximize revenues while riders want to minimize costs. That’s the platform dilemma.
22. 22
Uber dispatches one trip every
second in London, optimizing
pickups in real time.
Having thousands of cars is not enough. You need to make sure they’re at the right place, at the
right time. While traditional taxis wait in line expecting for customers to show up at the taxi
station, Uber leverages geolocation data to instantly matches riders with drivers. Thanks to its
powerful dispatch algorithm, it optimizes car allocation to minimize drivers’ idle time and rider’s
waiting time. Reliability is key to Uber’s goal: ”a car at the tap of a button”.
Uber tests its dispatch algorithms with AI
simulations on a 100x100 blocks virtual city.
A strong differentiation from data-blind legacy taxi
systems. Close to 60% of SF taxis are dispatched in
more than 10 min.
In major cities, average pick-up
time is around 3 minutes

Uber constantly adapts its services to fine-tune and personalize the experience based
on customer needs and usage scenarios. Uber develops a wide variety of offers to
target users with different elasticities. For some, reliability is more important, others
value low prices while for some a premium experience is the main selling point.

25. Uber uses highly scalable software and services to achieve zero cost delivery once critical user
mass is achieved. It doesn’t own any of the cars it dispatches, already cutting down many costs
incurred by legacy taxi companies (medallion, car…). In addition, it has automatized all steps of
the taxi experience apart from the ride itself. Uber can scale and grow indefinitely at virtually
no additional cost.

26. Thanks to its network structure, Uber benefits from network effects when it reaches critical mass. A
network effect occurs when a product or a service becomes more valuable to its users as more
people use it. Network effects explain Uber’s exponential growth and raise high barriers to entry for
new comers.

30. In a networked world, markets concentrate around one monopoly. The winning platform is
not the first mover but the first settler: the first that reaches liquidity, a state where there
is enough volume of supply and demand, for transactions to start sparking. In Uber’s

“ In many cases, the importance of the early adopter tech community can be
overstated. In Uber’s case it cannot. […] Uber was highly active at local-area

Give your customers a story to tell and create virality.
Uber Ice Cream
Uber launched multiple Uber Ice Cream campaigns: “An ice
cream at a tap of a button, delivered to your door, for
free”. On the 24th of July 2014, it launched it in 252 cities,
across 57 countries, and invited users to share with an
astounding success. A stunt repeated with Uber Puppies,
Uber Mariachi, Uber Chopper, and many others.

Even if it adapts its offers to local demand, Uber offers the same interface and experience
everywhere, allowing riders to use the service, even when abroad. Contagion doesn’t
recognize borders ! One single app and brand to have a transportation experience
whatever the language, the currency, the nationality of either the driver or the customer.

Uber can reach 200 million
more users through its partners’ apps.
Uber’s future customers are probably someone’s current customers. In order
to acquire users from other businesses' customer bases, Uber has opened a
set of APIs to integrate its service into third parties’ apps and gain visibility.
Outsourcing marketing efforts
“Consider emailing your user base
to ensure they are aware of the
Uber integration within your app”
The Partner Program is aimed at big
companies that integrated Uber in their
own app. It’s a free added service for their
customers and it offers exposure to Uber.

Uber’s APIs allow developers to
incorporate Uber into their applications

UberCab, founded in 2009 started operating
its first black cars in 2010 in San Francisco.
• Professional drivers
• Black sedans only
• No booking fees
• Order at the tap of a button
• More expensive than a taxi
• Premium service and experience
Uber challenged the taxi and black
car market by providing a simple
service: a ride a the tap of button. A
perfect user experience was the core of
Uber’s value proposition.
UberCab became Uber in 2011 and
launched UberBLACK and UberSUV with
an identical value proposition. Later it
launched UberVAN for larger groups of
passengers.
Starting the network: a black car service

In 2012, Uber launchedUberX (UberPOP
in Europe), a taxi-ridesharinghybrid
registeringas a “Transportation Network
Company”, taking the best of both
worlds:
• Non-professional drivers driving their
own car when they want to (they pay for
gas themselves)
• A new source of income for anyone that
is willing to drive
• Lower prices for riders
• Same experience as UberBLACK
By tapping intoprivately owned
excesscapacities, Uber has been able
to exponentially grow its pool of drivers
and decrease price .
Before launching UberX, the number of
Uber drivers had a steady but slow
growth.

UberPOOL enables you to share a ride and
split the cost with another user who is
requesting a ride along a similar route at the
same time. Users can pay up to 50% less.
Drivers gets 2 or 3 rides for the cost/time of
one, and Uber takes a higher 35% fee.

riders were willing to wait an
additional 5 minutes for other

In 2015, Uber launched Smart Routes and HOP. These
services are designed for price-sensitive customers
willing to sacrifice time: announcing Uber’s direct
competition with public transportation.
Users request UberHOP rides and the app gives
them directions to their pickup location. Users
share ride to a predefined destination, and walk
the last few blocks.
Uber smart routes is an extension of UberPOOL. It
offers fare reductions to customers if they get
picked up near a smart route. By providing
incentives for customers to rally precise pickup
points, Uber wants to maximize the number of
people per car and therefore continue to lower
prices.
UberHOP is a pilot in Seattle. Smart routes only
exist in San Francisco so far.

In 2014 and 2015, Uber launched
UberEATS and UberRUSH,
respectively a meal delivery service
for restaurants, and a package
delivery service for businesses.
UberEATS is embedded in the Uber
app. While UberRUSH is accessible to
businesses through a dedicated API.
Both services leverage Uber’s existingnetworkof
drivers and dispatch technology.A smart way to
decrease drivers’ idle time and exploit excess capacity
further. Uber leverages its direct access to users through its
app to create new sources of revenues.
UberRUSH is live in SF, NYC and Chicago since 2014.
UberEATS has launched in 15 North American cities, as well
as London, Melbourne, Paris and Singapore.

The math seems to add up
Megan Quinn (an ex-KPCB partner) sold her
car and decided to take an Uber anytime she
needed to move around, and realized the
cost of moving in Uber was below the cost of
owning a car.
Cost of owning a car for a year: $10.281
(Parking + Gas + Insurance + Maintenance +
Tolls / parking tickets + amortized cost of car )
Cost of riding with Uber for a year: $4655
“So the magic there is, you basically
bring the cost below the cost of
ownership for everybody, and then
car ownership goes away.”
Travis Kalanick
CEO Uber
Uber’s ambition is to become a substitute to car ownership. In some cities Uber cut prices 5 to 6
times in a two-year period to make its service more appealing to customers and turn them away
from car ownership. In large cities, the cost of owning a car can reach $15.000 per year. The average
US household owns 2.1 cars, with 20% owning 3 or more. Uber’s proposition might find its public!

As Aaron Levie (CEO of Box) puts it, “sizing the market for a disruptor based on an incumbent's market
is like sizing the car industry off how many horses there were in 1910.”
Uber is no longer a cab company, it’s a transportation network. It wants to move everything
and everyone from point A to point B, enlarging its market day after day, and setting a vision for a
world where Uber would replace car ownership. So forget about the taxi market - Uber’s market is
way bigger than it seems!

From network to industry leader
51. 51
With its latest mission statement (“moving bits and atoms”), Uber clearly states its ambition to become
more than a transportation giant: a real infrastructure and a platform where other service providers
can contribute to value creation. Uber is taking advantage of the direct contact and captive attention it
has with passengers during their Uber rides. Indeed, Uber provided the equivalent of 40,000 years of
rides since 2010.
Media distribution channel Customer acquisition channel
Uber Trip Experiences allows users to connect
to their favorite apps during their Uber trip.
Uber gives brands an opportunity to use Uber
riders’ captive attention to push adapted
content based on the time of the day and trip
duration. A smart way to improve riders’
experience.
Uber Offers enables brand to push promotions to
passengers based on their geolocation data. For
example, Starbucks may pay for your ride to their
shop. Offers are targeted and become a new way
for local businesses to reach new customers. For
Uber, it’s a way new way of providing cheaper/free
rides to its riders.
What’s next ? Increasing average revenue per car
52. 52
The ideal transportation network
“We can imagine a perpetual trip – the driver picks up one
customer, then picks up another, then drops one of them
off, then picks up another – the trip just keeps going, and
the driver always has a customer in the car”
Becoming a reality?
Travis Kalanick,
CEO, Uber
What’s next ? The perpetual ride: 24/7, 100% of capacityused
Imagine cars that never stop, a perfectly optimized
transportation network, where resources (drivers,
cars) are used at 100% capacity. To fulfil this dream,
Uber will have to reach a massive scale, to ensure
high liquidity at the local level with maximum
capillarity.
Uber is doubling down on UberPOOL in China and
the US with incentives for drivers.
In San Francisco, Uber has reached a record of 8
non-stop UberPOOL rides.
53. 53
Uber plans to replace its fleet of drivers by a
fleet of driverless cars as soon as the
technology is ready, thus making the rides
cheaper without having to care about
drivers’ revenue expectations and moving
closer to the perpetual ride dream:
• Opened a research center in Pittsburg in
2015, to build its own autonomous cars
• Allegedly pre-ordered 100,000 Mercedes
for when they get self-driving technology.
• Recruited top researchers and executives
from the car industry and Google’s ex-VP
of Engineering
• Holds a strong advantage in the race to
the autonomous car: data about how,
where and when people want to be
driven.
“The reason Uber could be expensive is
you’re paying for the other dude in the car.

cost of taking an Uber anywhere is

Will the transportation giant be able to keep

Uber is not the only on-demand actor. It is
challenged all around the world by
growing actors well decided to stop its
growth.
With the promise of “moving away from car
ownership”, Uber hasn’t made carmakers
happy. But they have room left to reinvent
themselves and challenge Uber in the on-
demand economy.
Tech giants are progressively investing
huge amounts to conquer the
transportation market. The war is just
beginning…
Uber has grown to become a transportation
giant in less than a decade, changing the
rules of the game and challenging legacy
actors. But beware of the backfire. On its
way up, Uber has created frustration, fear
and envy from multiple stakeholders ready
to fight for their premises.

Uber vs governments: also a political fight
“
58. With the creation of the “Transportation Network Company” status, Uber has initially leveraged
regulation to create unfair competitive advantages againsttaxi networks for which medallions
could reachup to $1M in cities like NYC. But now, regulation threatens Uber and could be its worst
nightmare. Depending on the city it is dealing with, Uber reacts in multiple fashions.

Uber adapts to comply with the
law: in Moscow Uber just
accepts professional drivers and
shares data.
Uber partners with governments to
operate: in Hyderabad it has
promised to train 2,000 drivers and
invest $50M to build headquarters.
Some municipalities decided to
ban some of Uber’s services. In
this case, Uber obeys like in Paris
where it ceased its UberX activity
(aka.UberPop). In some cities like
Austin, Uber is not forbidden but
retreats because policies prevent
liquidity.
Some municipalities like Newark
don’t hesitate to make Uber pay
to operate: $3M upfront and
$10M across 10 years to access
the airport.

Lobby
Globally, Uber is spending millions of
dollars into lobbying. It hires top
profiles in its public affairs
department, like Neelie Kroes, an ex
EU-commissioner for Competition, or
David Plouffe, the ex director of
Obama’s campaign.

• Declare it to the world: Marketing

• Demonize the other: repeated attacks on

Uber has created a divide in the public opinion in many cities, where the support and the
opposition to ridesharing services has become intense. In The Culting of Brands, Douglas Atkin, VP
Community at Airbnb explains how brands can leverage cults’ techniques to turn customers into
true believers and it seems Uber has learned the lesson well. The transportation genius has always
been able to count on its users to promote and defend its service against all attacks.

Launching many petitions, to seek
support from users against governments

Drivers’ mutiny
61. Uber forgot it’s a network
of drivers and not a
network of cars yet
Low prices and pickup times depend on a high supply of drivers: steal its drivers away and Uber’s
market power collapses. Under regulatory pressure from the outside, Uber is now challenged from
the inside, by its own partner drivers. Keeping its drivers inside the network till it gets to the
autonomous car seems like Uber’s biggest challenge.
By trying to please riders with
lower prices, Uber has enraged its
drivers. All around the world, they
have protested against price cuts.
They are also unionizing inside
“The Uber Drivers Network” to
speak of a common voice against
Uber.
In a two-sided market, it’s a
risky move to sacrifice one side
to please the other.
Uber can be challenged by
anyone with a large amount of
funding and a pro-driver strategy
Emerging actors like Gett and Juno are taking on
Uber by developing driver-friendly value
propositions. Gett offers fare guarantees to
drivers. Juno only takes a 10% commission on
rides and reserves 50% of its founding shares to
drivers. Startups like Arcade City leverage the
blockchain to organize a network of driver:
commissions reach 0%.
In a market with supply-side network effects,
if competitors attract your supply,the demand
will follow.

Transportation has become an increasingly crowded market with disruptors adding a new layer to the existing
infrastructures. By plugging to Uber, transportation networks can extend their reach, gain in flexibility, and
solve ”thelast mile problem“ by serving underserved areas. In Paris, around 40% of Uber trips happen before
or after a public transportation trip. Integrating with mass transit actors is crucial to Uber’s survival.
Caltrain & Uber partnership in San Francisco extends
the reach of Caltrain network by providing
UberPOOL rides to and from South Bay station. For
special events, Uber can bring flexibility to the public
transit system.

Competing head-on with an installed virus is usually a very difficult challenge. Because of its

only to survive. A virtually infinite fight.

In the networked world, 4 types of companies emerge in every market, following the model set out by

positioning themselves in each category. Some try to occupy more than one category.
4 types of companies for one market
These companies build, develop, and lease
physical assets to make, market, distribute, and
sell physical things. They will build the
autonomous cars.
These companies hire employees who provide
services to customers or produce billable hours
for which they charge. They will provide
insurance, repair cars, etc…
These companies develop and sell intellectual
property such as software, analytics,
pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. They will build
the software that drives the autonomous cars.
These companies create a network of peers in
which the participants interact and share in the
value creation. They will orchestrate autonomous
cars to serve riders.
