You can think of Expa as a technology studio that will help create and fund new products.

The company, Camp previously told TechCrunch, would be structured similarly to Obvious, Evan William's studio that has made startups like Medium, Lift, and Branch, which recently sold to Facebook.

Camp first rose to fame when eBay bought his startup StumbleUpon for $75 million in 2007. Camp later bought back his startup from eBay in 2009, and raised $17 million in new funding.

Three years later, Camp left his chief executive role and helped found on-demand car service company Uber with Travis Kalanick. Today, Uber is worth around $3.8 billion.
