Author: Bernstein Research January 21, 2025 Duration: 54:21

Once the hottest start-up and a notorious cash-burn business, Uber has now emerged as a scaled and profitable Internet platform. US Internet Analyst Nikhil Devnani joins host Sid Malkani on the podcast this week to discuss Uber, the category-defining app.

We dig into its history and evolution into a global and multi-category on-demand network. Today, Uber faces its next big transition phase to an increasingly autonomous network as driverless cars are finally here. We touch on what these inventions mean for Uber and how the company might navigate this future.
