Career

Garrett Camp came up with ‘StumbleUpon’ way back in 2002 when the world had never seen anything like it, making ‘StumbleUpon’ the only search engine, at that time, that smartly suggested web content to its users and allowed them to discover different and unique things. By 2006, ‘StumbleUpon’ was already catching the eyes of various investors and finally moved base to San Francisco after gaining funds from Silicon Valley angels by the end of that year.

Garrett worked relentlessly on the company up till 2012 before resigning from the post of CEO to pursue other interests. However, Garrett was called back home by the mother ship in 2015, when ‘StumbleUpon’ was headed towards a downhill spiral. He reinvented the company and continues to take it to newer heights with each passing year.

While Garrett was still serving as the CEO of ‘StumbleUpon,’ he single-handedly developed and even executed the initial stages of setting up ‘Uber,’ an on demand taxi service that was destined to become the world’s most successful, in 2009. Initially, the venture was titled ‘UberCab’ and was joined by Travis Kalanick in the same year. The basic idea behind Uber was to reduce the cost of private taxis, which Garrett succeeded to achieve, along with Travis, Conrad Whelan, and Oscar Salazar. ‘Uber’ became operational by 2010 and even went on to bag funding of $1.25 million even before the year was over. The company has been on an uphill climb ever since, with new and cost-effective services offered every year.

Another of Garrett Camp’s innovative ventures is ‘Expa,’ which is pretty much the summation of his own start-up experiences and his unique way of giving back to the world. ‘Expa’ is a studio that makes start-up dreams come true, which it has been doing ever since its launch in 2013.
