Travis Kalanick was once one of the most powerful men in Silicon Valley...until he was exiled from the very empire he helped to create. Though he will tell you he built it all by himself. He once managed to save his failing company by securing $1.8 million dollars in funding from a famous Wall St billionaire that he met on an Internet forum. He is also responsible for putting Silicon Valley on the map and creating several billionaires from what would become one of the most ground-breaking tech companies of the 21st Century. But on the other hand, many people hate him.
