Historical Background
Uber Technologies was founded in 2009 by Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp and launched its service in San Francisco in June 2010. Uber filed for trademark registration in 2010. In the UK, Transport for London refused to renew Uber's operating licence in 2019 on safety grounds; Uber appealed and had its licence reinstated in 2020. The company listed on the New York Stock Exchange in May 2019 at a valuation of approximately $82 billion. Uber's UK trademark covers app-based transportation arrangement services under Class 39.
