Co-founding Uber in 2009 and scaling it to an $82 billion IPO redefined urban transportation globally; now Kalanick's CloudKitchens — a $15 billion ghost kitchen real estate company operating across multiple countries — is running the same disruption playbook on the restaurant industry.
Travis Kalanick is the Founder and CEO of Atoms, the venture he leads after building CloudKitchens (formerly the brand under which the business operated) into a major ghost-kitchen real estate company.
