News broke recently that Uber Eats is in talks with Grubhub to take them over. An agreement could happen by the end of the month.

We don’t know any more than that at this point.

What would that mean? What will happen if that happens?

I discuss what I’ve seen happen when one tech company takes over another. Based on what I’ve seen, I don’t think we’ll see immediate changes the day the deal is finalized. This kind of thing takes time.

What are your thoughts? What do you think?

You can read a written version of my thoughts on the associated blog post here.

Some other articles referenced in today's episode:
Business Insider article breaking the news of the talks between Uber and Grubhub.
CNBC report on increased stock prices after news of talks broke
Business Insider article about failed merger talks between Doordash and Uber
Four Week MBA discussion of the Grubhub business model
Article I wrote earlier on how delivery companies have handled the pandemic and the bad PR that Grubhub has been getting.
