If you’re an entrepreneur or someone who likes to keep himself updated, then you must’ve followed an almost decade long journey of On-Demand hailing service – Uber. It has been an Inspiration for the millions of entrepreneurs and will continue to be so. Uber, a start-up which began in San Francisco in the year 2009 has conquered 72 countries and is still disrupting many Cab markets around the world.
