Uber CEO to meet with UK officials

London's transport authority said yesterday that its commissioner will meet with the chief executive of Uber next week.

The meeting with Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi comes after London transit authorities decided to strip the ride-hailing service of its license to operate in the British capital.

Uber said its new chief executive was “looking forward” to the meeting in London and wanted to work with city authorities to “make things right.”

The city's transportation agency, Transport for London, said last week it would not renew Uber's license when it expires today, citing a lack of corporate responsibility. Uber has said it plans to appeal the ruling.
