Former Uber Chief Executive Travis Kalanick is stepping further away from the company he co-founded and helped build into a giant in the ride-hailing industry.

On Tuesday, Uber said Kalanick will leave its board of directors, effective Dec. 31. Kalanick said in a statement that with Uber having gone public earlier this year, “it seems like the right moment for me to focus on my current business and philanthropic pursuits.”
