A month after Nokia announced plans to sell off its Here maps business, Uber has now thrown its hat in the ring in a bid to acquire the service for up to three billion dollars.

According to The Verge, the taxi-hailing service's interest in the business is obvious as maps form the core of its business today and are set to play a greater role in the future.

Other contenders on the list include, Apple, Amazon, Audi AG, BMW AG, Baidu, Facebook, Harman, Mercedes-Benz, and Sirius XM.

Nokia is selling off the Here unit as part of an ongoing restructuring of its business.
