That would be a very complex equation, some variables would be:
- Google Ventures operates independently of Google.
- How much of the ~1.5 billion fund under management has Google money invested in it.
- In the round they lead for Uber, what percentage of it was GV, and out of that, what percentage was directly funded by stakeholders that identify as part of Google. And what percentage of those stakeholders is owned directly by Google.
These all vectors multiply. It ultimately has to be seen how much Alphabet gets for every dollar that Uber makes in profit. But I'm sure there is a percentage.
