Garrett Camp, a successful Canadian entrepreneur who was born in 1978, is well known for his innovative technology projects. He co-founded two of the most well-known companies, Uber and StumbleUpon (now Mix).

In addition to serving as chairman of Mix, Garrett founded the business incubator Expa, through which he provides startup funding. One of his most recent endeavors is Eco, which was initially intended to be a cryptocurrency but is currently a personal finance/investment app.

Since Travis Kalanick is so closely associated with Uber and it is frequently claimed that it was his “instinct and drive” that sent the taxi app into the stratosphere of valuation, it is frequently forgotten who came up with the big idea.
