I have no idea what this sentence means. But if Uber was a company that sold software to taxi companies then they'd be a tech company. As it is they sell car rides, not software, and so are a taxi company more than they are a tech company.
- OJFord 7y agoI mean that if Uber provides the same service, but the pricing model is such that you pay for the software instead of the car ride directly, it's suddenly a 'tech company'? If pricing model is how we categorise a company as a 'tech company' or not then I don't see that it's a useful category.
