Kalanick was CEO of Uber from 2010 to 2017. He resigned from Uber in 2017, and retained his seat on the board of directors until he resigned the seat on December 31, 2019. In the weeks leading up to the resignation, Kalanick sold off approximately 90% of his shares in Uber, for a profit of about $2.5 billion.
