Uber also debuted an chatbot powered by OpenAI’s ChatGPT which will answer all EV-related queries for drivers on the network. Uber also highlighted that its zero emission rides are now available across 32 countries in 200 cities.
                                                                                            At Uber's earnings call on Wednesday, CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said that the pandemic phase had taken away some of the rider app's most frequent customers and hoped that with professionals returning to work.
                                                                                            Writing on X (formerly Twitter), Anand Mahindra revealed that he initially did not think Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi and his company would grow as a firm, but admitted to have been proven wrong.
                                                                                            Billionaire Gautam Adani on February 24 met Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, who is currently on a visit to India, and hinted at possible future collaborations between his conglomerate and the ride-hailing app.
                                                                                            During an interaction with Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani in Bengaluru on Thursday, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said that he delivered food for Uber Eats during the pandemic which helped preserve his sanity.
                                                                                            Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi took an Uber Shuttle bus in Bengaluru on February 22. He shared the ride along with some members of the Uber India team.
                                                                                            Uber’s announcement comes after the company's direct rival in India, Ola, joined the government-backed Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) to provide food delivery services in September of 2023.
                                                                                            Despite the challenges, Khosrowshahi said the company plans to expand its low-cost service segments, particularly two-wheeler and three-wheeler services in India.
                                                                                            When questioned about Uber's surge pricing strategy, CEO Dara Khosrowshahi attributed it to inflation and increased costs of time and labour.
                                                                                            Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi has told The Wall Street Journal that he spent months undercover as an Uber driver and delivery agent to better understand and address the problems they face.
                                                                                            Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi recalled the incident during an interview with LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky.
                                                                                            Dara Khosrowshahi talks about "career compounding" and what it takes to be great.
                                                                                            Davos 2023: Uber Chief Executive Dara Khosrowshahi said in Davos on Thursday that he was not currently planning any company-wide layoffs.
                                                                                            With cities reopening and travel booming, consumers are shifting their budgets to services, Chief Executive Dara Khosrowshahi said, compared to the two years of COVID-led lockdowns when they had limited spending to basic needs.
                                                                                            “The business is really hitting on all cylinders,” Khosrowshahi said in an interview to Bloomberg Television after the company reported results that beat analysts’ estimates.
                                                                                            Uber currently holds 7.78% in Zomato.
                                                                                            The ride-hailing company becomes the latest to rein in costs to have a lean investment model, after Facebook-owner Meta Platforms Inc said last week it would slow down the growth of its workforce.
                                                                                            CEO Dara Khosrowshahi's efforts to move jobs to India was resisted by Uber’s chief technology officer Thuan Pham, who has since left the company.
                                                                                            Khosrowshahi said stringent cost cutting, to the tune of more than $1 billion (808 million pounds) in 2020, would ensure the company stayed on track. Uber on Wednesday said it would lay off 3,700 full-time employees, or roughly 17% of its head count.
                                                                                            Ola wants to go public in two years from the time Uber went public. While that may be in keeping with its desire to follow in its footsteps, it may be premature for Ola to tap retail investors.
                                                                                            Dara Khosrowshahi was backtracking from comments he made in which he compared Jamal Khashoggi's murder by Saudi agents inside the kingdom's Istanbul consulate to a fatality caused by one of his company's self-driving cars.
                                                                                            'If I look at Uber's growth over the next 10 years it's going to be defined by markets like India, Africa, the Middle East more so than the developed markets such as the U.S. and Europe,' Khosrowshahi said.
                                                                                            The lackluster market response comes against the backdrop of a spike in trade tensions between the United States and China and increased investor skepticism about the company's ability to turn profitable soon enough.
                                                                                            Sarfraz Maredia is driving Uber at a crucial moment when the cab aggregator is facing challenges in one of its largest markets: New York City
                                                                                            While Uber’s valuation is primarily linked to how well it sold its vision and growth prospects to its investors so far, its gross billing which comes from the total number of rides it completes also matters.
