Garrett Camp's career is a series of transformative web ventures. 2007: StumbleUpon Exit. He sold StumbleUpon to eBay for $75 million in 2007, but quickly bought it back in 2009, frustrated by the corporate environment, leading him to grow its user base five-fold before it was later rebranded as Mix. 2009: Uber. The pivotal moment came when he and Travis Kalanick met at a conference in Paris and struggled to find a taxi—sparking the idea for UberCab (later Uber Technologies). Camp joined the board as Chairman, overseeing the strategic vision of the disruptive car-hire company.

In 2013, Camp founded Expa, a startup studio dedicated to helping entrepreneurs develop and launch concepts, investing in over 70 ventures. His current focus also includes the crypto project Eco, designed to be the default protocol for apps that use stablecoins. His multi-billion dollar fortune, tied to his Uber founding stake, secured his legacy as a titan of digital service innovation and venture capital.
