When it comes to fast-growing scale-ups, we can’t think a better example than Uber – the San Francisco based ‘transportation network company’ – which has used technology and data to grow at a phenomenal rate since 2009 to now operate in over 570 cities around the world and be valued at over $100 billion.
As such, we’re delighted to have Edinburgh-based Chris Yiu (General Manager, Uber) speaking at our ‘Growing & Scaling’ day on Thursday 18th May.
