Uber Faces Reality
One of the biggest heralds of the mobility revolution, Uber is known for making bold statements about the near future and the company’s role in making it possible.
Flying taxis crossing the city’s skyline, fleets of driverless cars optimising traffic flow across entire countries. The full picture.
Well, it’s time to face reality. The reality of public traded companies, that is.
