Show Notes
Uber was dealt a huge setback last month when it was declared a transportation business by the European Union's highest court. The ride sharing giant had tried to claim it was a technology platform that connected drivers with riders. Host Dan Loney talks with John Paul MacDuffie, Director of the Program on Vehicle and Mobility Innovation (PVMI) at Wharton's Mack Institute for Innovation Management, and Dr. Valerio De Stefano, Professor of Law at the University of Leuven in Belgium, to discuss what impact this ruling will have on Uber and similar companies in the EU but also the US on Knowledge@Wharton.
