About this listen

In episode 1.5 of The MVP Pod, we take a look at the founding story of Uber and how they built their MVP. We discuss how Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp came up with the idea for Uber, how they raised their initial round of funding, and how they went about launching their service in San Francisco and New York. We also talk about the challenges they faced along the way, such as regulatory hurdles and competition from Lyft.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who's interested in the history of Uber or the startup world in general. We'll give you a behind-the-scenes look at how Uber became a global transportation giant, and we'll share some insights that you can apply to your own business.

As always, we are constantly looking to improve The MVP Pod as our goal is to make building successful products easier by sharing stories and learnings of other products and builders. We would appreciate it if you could tweet or dm us⁠⁠ @m2s4n⁠⁠ and⁠⁠ @harrysiva_⁠⁠ with your feedback!
