Silicon Valley-style fallout: Uber adds fuel to fire as Türkiye’s Getir founders sue Abu Dhabi’s Mubadala for $700M betrayal

In a major escalation of the ongoing dispute between a once-high-flying delivery start-up and its largest investor, the co-founders of Turkish food and grocery delivery startup Getir, Nazım Salur and Serkan Borançılı, have filed a $700 million lawsuit against Abu Dhabi’s Mubadala Investment Company, alleging that the sovereign wealth fund breached a 2024 restructuring agreement by withholding key assets they were promised. The claim, lodged in London’s High Court, marks a dramatic escalation in what has become one of the delivery sector’s most closely watched legal disputes.

This legal action comes just days after Mubadala agreed to sell Getir’s core food delivery business in Türkiye to Uber Technologies for about $335 million, underscoring how intensely the relationship has deteriorated between the Turkish firm’s founders and its Emirati backer.
