Vielleicht ist das eine Lehre aus Jahrhunderten Kolonialismus - das muss ja nicht durch Zuckerberg und andere, für die Gesetze nicht existieren, wiederbelebt werden. Da können meines Erachtens die Europäer noch viel davon lernen - auch von den Russen und Chinesen.

“Lyft’s strong momentum has continued in the first half of 2018, with our recently launched new passenger app, an environmental commitment to make all Lyft rides carbon neutral, and our partnership with Magna to develop and scale autonomous vehicle technology,” the company wrote in a press release.
Last month, Lyft’s internal market share numbers showed that it has 35 percent of the national ridesharing market, up from 20 percent 18 months ago. The company also says its market share is over 40 percent in 16 U.S. markets and that it has a majority share in “multiple” markets.
And earlier this year, Lyft announced that its revenue grew more than $1 billion in 2017 and beat Uber’s growth in Q4 by 2.75 times. In fact, Lyft’s revenue growth was up 168 percent in the fourth quarter, while Uber’s increased by 61 percent.
Lyft also provided 375.5 million rides in 2017, which is up 130 percent year over year. The company also provided rides to a total of 23 million different passengers, which is a 92 percent jump from the prior year, and had 1.4 million drivers at the end of 2017, up 100 percent from the end of 2016.

"The Japanese behemoth holds a stake in both Lyft (20 percent) and Cabify (40 percent) and would supposedly be happy to see them merge.“

Why Spain’s Cabify will end up being bought out
Recent reports that Lyft was about to buy Spain’s Cabify for some $3 billion have been denied by Cabify, which insists it will follow a roadmap that includes a Spanish IPO in over the next one or two years, while Lyft has issued the usual no comment. Cabify, one of the few Spanish unicorns, was valued during its latest round of financing at $1.4 billion and is present in 39 cities in 11 countries.

The Japanese e-commerce giant Rakuten has been confirmed as a second new major strategic investor in Careem, as part of a US$350 million financing package announced yesterday by the ride sharing company.
Rakuten, the world’s largest e-retailer outside China and the US, was confirmed yesterday as the co-leader of a $350m fund-raising drive by Careem, together with Saudi Telecom, alongside a series of smaller investors.+
Saudi Telecom said on Sunday that it had reached an agreement to acquire a 10 per cent stake in Careem, which operates in 47 cities in 11 countries, for $100m.

Amid ongoing struggles at Uber, one of its stronger regional rivals in transportation on demand has raised a significant round of funding, picking up a significant strategic investor in the process.
Careem, a transportation startup currently in 80 cities across the Middle East, has raised another $150 million — closing out a $500 million Series E round that it confirmed in December when it announced the first $350 million tranche. With the new funds, Mudassir Sheikha, Careem’s co-founder and CEO, confirmed that Careem’s valuation is now over $1 billion. A separate source tells us more precisely that the funding is now $1.2 billion.
This latest tranche is being led by Saudi-based Kingdom Holding, the VC that also backs Lyft and invested in Twitter and Snap before they went public. German automaker Daimler (which itself has acquired Hailo in the UK, Taxibeat in Greece and MyTaxi in Germany), and VCs Lumia Capital, DCM Ventures and Coatue Management also participated. (A source confirms to us that the overall $500 million is being led by Rakuten, which invested in the first tranche.)
