SoftBank has huge bets in all the global rideshare companies, which includes Grab and Ola as well as Uber and Didi. The bet is on providing sophisticated transportation logistics in fast growing developing world cities that are currently served by a hodge podge of unaccountable, poorly coordinated small time private transportation companies, and where overwhelmed regional governments are unable to provide sufficient public transportation services. It's an addressable market of potentially billions of people who will never own cars, and and currently have limited options.
