Before Uber poached Dara Khosrowshahi to serve as its CEO, he facilitated a $26 million series B round in hotel startup ALICE as CEO of Expedia. The idea with ALICE is to bring technology to the outdated hotel industry by offering up a system to run hotels on a single platform.

This round brings ALICE’s total funding to $39 million and makes Expedia the startup’s majority shareholder. Last January, the startup raised a $9.5 million Series A round, also led by Expedia.
