In the early stages, the micromobility has changed over the past few years. E -scooter companies’ shepherd antics, which causes chaos in the scale bid, has disappeared with the examination of the fat project that is now flowing into the AI ​​startups.
The hard capital has developed a new crop of micromobility startups, combined with a existential need for sustainable business models.
This week, I attended Micromobility Europe in Brussels, where I visited the so -called “Startup Arena” of the conference to estimate that Europe’s early stage micromobility ecosystem was bringing the table. Many companies I have talked about are trying to fill the space of the industry – whether it be through fleet management software, parking, or charging. Some, though, are just making vehicles they want to ride.
All of them always represent the next step of the developing micromobility industry.
Convoy
The e -cargo bikes are often marketed as easy to simplify the lives of a parent, but are mostly heavy, heavy and expensive. UK -based ConvoyWhich was founded in 2023, is trying to overcome the obstacles, which have a clip on cargo conversion cut for bikes and e -bikes that can reach two young children.
The team behind the convoy has a diverse background, from Fame Tech and E -Bikes to the former CEO of Dyson.
“We have worked together to build a hand-free breast pump before 10 years before 10 years,” Tatiana Escobar-Pack told Tech Crunch. “For a decade, we have been considering why the life of a new parent has to be so sad.”
The convoy’s attachment is easily fastened on the back wheel of the current motorcycle, easily stores, and weighs only 26 pounds. It offers a 250 watt motor that converts the pedal bike into e -bikes, as well as the rear wheel steering motorcycle’s turn -circle.
The convoy is launching pre -orders for the trailer 25 2,200 ($ 2500) next week. Startup has increased minor funds and has received considerable demand from European distributors this year to start thinking about expansion in Japan and the United States next year.
Azora charge
German brother and sister -in -law Caroline and Johannes Gokle founded a year and a half ago Azora charge Making a solar powered charging and parking station for eBikes. The Azora charge is not trying to directly meet the needs of the joint micro -mobility operators as serving regular people who own e -bikes, which can be safely charged and made public.
“There are no such solutions,” Carolin Gokal told Tech Crunch. “For example, in London, I have no way to put my motorcycle somewhere and know that it’s safe. It’s just being stolen.”
Ajora’s flagship product, Azira Arc, is a covered charging station that can fit inside a parking space. It includes five solar panels, four charging stations that can live up to eight bikes, and can be adapted to ad. It is designed to become a plug andplay solution, which is suitable for various locations like the parking garage and city streets.
Ajora wants to sell these stations to azora 28,000 (, 000 32,000) – or at a retail price of € 15,999 (, 18,400), which is not covered – to cities, apartment complexes, shopping centers and other businesses. They hope that the B2B will collect 000 250,000, through the Venture Capital or friends and family, emphasizing the need for expertise in distribution. A pilot program is scheduled to begin in Headburg, Germany, to examine the first prototype.
Flats
Flats A European -based micromobility market that buys, sells and renews joint electric bikes and scooters. The company, which was founded in the late 2024, meets both newly and established operators, offering support for supply chain, software management, and batteries.
The Flats Client Base includes sellers who want to offload hardware and new operators seeking efficient admission to the market.
“We are the right market to help someone who wants to start, or a big operator who wants to extend cheaply,” the flatter’s managing partner, Alexei Stephen told Tech Crunch.
The company operates with warehouses in Romania and the Netherlands. This year he sold 6,000 bikes and is being physically scaling through the market demand and literal mouth. The flats also offers logistics support to move and deliver the bikes, and was seen chatting with the founders of a dermatological-based bloom-who wants to work hard behind the curtain for e-bike startups for the event.
Switch
Italian start Switch Fleet planning and fleet management for cities and joint mobility operators. Including the lime pilot. Startup offers two basic products: Arboreus produces artificial data and imitation for logistics and movements, while Urban offers refinement of reality of real -time demand, fleet balance, and operations correction.
Then there is an AI agent who is able to access all the tools of stakeholders, ranging from slack to CRM apps, so that users can ask “cross -section questions”.
“So you can ask something the same as you can, please send a notification to the slack, when the average level of fleet battery in this area is less than 40 percent, you report on the public transport,” said Tech Crunch.
Founded in 2020, the company has About $ 10 million collectedIncluding the European Institute of Technology.
Zipper
ZipperBosnia and Herzegovina offers food supply, joint micromobility, package supply, car rental and taxi services. Zeep launches in 2020 and has spread to 10 cities in Bosnia – where Uber still does not have a great presence – and is planning to enter Croatia this year.
What is the difference about Zip is that it runs a franchise model, an idea that comes from Martin McCulak, a former CEO of the Gaming Cafe Franchise Friendly Fire.
“In the Balkan, there is not too much competition (from players like Uber), and our franchise focuses on less than one million people because this concept is to empower locals, because locals know the need for customer in this city.”
J2 r
Jane Madul was a business analyst for the video game industry who wanted to buy an electric motorcycle, but did not find anything in the market that met its traceability, reproduction and cool design requirements.
A self -educated engineer, he started making motorcycles in his garage until he came with now J2r’s The flagship model. The J2R, which was founded in 2022, named its first electric motorcycle simula – in its small size approval. The simple is a sharp, radical design that has a future dirt bike style with a minimal appeal, which is enhanced by the features such as exposed suspension.
“It’s a toy, but for the city,” Madul said. “Basically for people who are really in urban and street culture. I guess that’s why short marketing works for them. They feel that this is a drop of something special.”
The team launched a pre -sale campaign with a price tag of 9,450 (, 10,800) in September. He plans to provide the number 15 units and 100 units by the end of the year in January 2026. Small has been deposited in France, mainly from the European Union.
Transform the movements
As the former founder of the German motorcycle sharing operation, Tobias Mayor understands joint micro -mobile business pain points. In April 2023 he returned with a new start, Transform the movementsWhich provides business intelligence services for motorcycle and car sharing operators.
Trace Mobility offers a subscription software service that tracks key matrix such as user registration, booking, vehicle use and revenue. It also integrates publicly available data and offers AI agent for customized insights and operational tips.
The company’s target client is small operators who do not have their own booking platforms, but rely on the White Label Solution, which draws trace data to expose their insights for clients.
The mayor said, “Profit for everyone in the business is a major problem and improve profit, or to earn a profit first, to know the mechanism behind your cost and tax structure and how they are connected.”
