The startups rolling out of Europe’s early-stage micromobility scene

Micromobility has turned the early stage over the past few years. The strange shepherds of cowboy faded to electronic programs that cause chaos in an attempt to expand with these tests in the fat project that is now flowing to the startups of artificial intelligence.

It produced the most aforementioned capital with the existential need to create sustainable business models.

This week, Micromobility attended in Brussels, where I toured the so -called “Argena Startup Arena” at the conference to learn what the ecosystem brings to the early stage in Europe to the table. Many of the companies that have spoken to the vulnerability of this industry are trying – whether through fleet management programs, parking lots or shipping. Some, though, only build the vehicles they wanted to ride.

They all represent the next stage of the advanced Micromobility.

convoy

Cargo bikes are often marketed because parents’ lives are easier, but most are heavy, huge and costly. The UK’s convoy, which was established in 2023, is trying to overcome these obstacles with the group conversion group on bicycles and electronic bicycles that can carry up to two young children.

The team behind Convoy has a varied background ranging from women’s health technology and electronic bicycles to previous CEO from DYSON.

“We have worked together for 10 years in building the first breast pump that can be worn with hands -free,” Tatiana Escobar Beck, the caravan’s chief revenue employee, told Techcrunch. “A decade ago, we were obsessed with what life for new fathers should be very miserable?”

The Convoy facility easily connects the rear wheel of the existing bike, the stores easily, and weighs only about 26 lbs. It provides a 250 -watt engine that converts pedal bicycles into electronic bicycles, as well as directing the rear wheels that keep the circle circle to the bike.

Convoy will launch a trailer of 2,200 euros ($ 2,500) next week. A young emerging company has gathered a modest financing and has received sufficient request from European distributors this year to start thinking about expanding Japan and the United States next year.

Azura charges

It was established a period and a half ago by the German brother and sister, Caroline and Johannes Joycke, Azora Charge, based in Germany, is building charging stations and parking parking parking stations. Azora Charge does not try to meet the needs of the common Micromobility directly as it is to serve ordinary people who have an electronic bike that can be shipped safely and stopped in public places.

“There are no solutions like this,” Caroline Goycke told Techcrunch. “In London, for example, there is no way in which I can stop my bike somewhere and know it is safe. It will only steal.”

The pioneering azora product, azora arc, is a covered charging station that can suit the parking space. It includes five integrated solar panels and four charging stations that can accommodate up to eight bikes, and can be adapted to the advertisement. It is designed to be a connection and operation solution, suitable for different sites such as parking garages and city streets.

Azora wants to sell these stations at the retail price of 28,000 euros ($ 32,000) – or 15,999 euros ($ 18,400) for the flow of Azura that does not have a cover – for cities, residential complexes, shopping centers and other companies. They hope to collect 250,000 euros through investment capital, friends and family, while emphasizing the need for experience in the distribution of B2B. A experimental program in Heidelberg, Germany, is scheduled to start testing the validity of the first model.

Fleet

Fleetser is the Micromobility market in Europe that buys, selling and renovating joint electric motorcycles and motorcycles. The company, which was established in late 2024, meets the needs of new and well -known operators, and provides assistance in the supply chain and software management and batteries.

Fleetser customer base includes sellers looking to cancel the download of new devices and operators who are looking for effective access to the market.

“We are the right market to help someone who wants to start, or even a large operator who wants to expand reasonable,” Alex Stefan, the fleetser administrative partner, told Techcrunch.

The company operates remotely with warehouses in Romania and the Netherlands. She sold 6000 bikes this year and expands organically through demand in the market and the word mouth. Fleetser also provides logistical support for the transportation and presentation of bicycles, and is seen talking to the Bloom founders based in Detroit-who wants to take over all the difficult scenes of the scenes of e-electronic startups-at this event.

Transforming

Stance Italian Startup Switch brings artificial intelligence and simulation to the fleet planning, fleet management of cities and subscriber transport operators – including a pilot with lime. The start starting is two basic products: Urbiverse creates data and simulations for logistics and transportation services, while Urban Copilot provides predictions in actual time, re -balance of the fleet, and improving operations.

Then there is an artificial intelligence agent “capable of accessing all stakeholders”, from Slack applications to CRM, so that users can ask “cross section questions”.

“So you can ask that, please send a Slack a notification every time the average level of the fleet battery is less than 40 % in this neighborhood, you can ask for a report on the status of Astalli compared to disruption of public transport,” said Alessandro Ciociola, AI Switch officer, for Techcrunch.

The company was founded in 2020, and the company raised nearly one million dollars, including from the European Institute of Technology.

Zab

Zapp, a super application of Bosnia and Herzegovina, provides food delivery, joint micromobility, handover of packages, car rental, and taxis. Zapp was launched in 2020 and expanded to 10 cities in Bosnia – where Uber still has no great presence – and plans to enter Croatia this year.

What is different from Zapp is that he runs a franchise model, an idea that came from CEO Martin Mikolik, former CEO of Gaming Cafe Firely Fire.

“In the Balkans, there is not a lot of competition [from established players like Uber]”Focusing on our privilege is smaller cities less than a million people because this concept is to empower the locals, because the local population knows the best of the customer in that city.”

J2R

Jean Madol was an analyst in the video game manufacturer who wanted to buy an electric motorcycle, but he was unable to find anything on the market that meets his needs of tracking, the ability to assemble, and a great design.

He started a self -studying engineer, and began building motorcycles in his garage until he came to what is now known as the pioneer model in J2R. His name is J2R, which was founded in 2022, his name is the first SMOL motorcycle – in reference to its small size. SMOL has a sharp and radical design that has a future design for dirt therapy with minimal attractiveness, which is strengthened with features such as open suspension.

“It is a game, but for the city,” said Madol. “Basically for people who are really in urban areas and in street culture. I think this is the reason that the marketing of scarcity works for them. They feel it is a drop of something very exclusive.”

The team launched a campaign in advance in September at a price of 9,450 euros (10,800 dollars). They are planning to provide 15 numbered units by the end of the year and 100 units in January 2026. SMOL is assembled in France with parts obtained primarily from the European Union.

Mobility tracking

As the former founder of the operation of German bicycle participation, Tobias Morey realizes the pain points in the joint Micromobility. In April 2023, he returned with a new start -up company, Trace Mobility, which provides business intelligence services for bicycle and car exchange.

Trace Mobility provides subscription -based programs that track main measures such as user records, reservations, vehicle use and revenue. It also merges the data available to the public and offers the agent of Amnesty International for customized visions and operational suggestions.

The company’s target customer is a smaller operator who does not have their reservation platforms but depend on white stickers solutions, which avoid data from reaching their own visions of customers.

Meurr said: “profitability is a big problem for everyone at work and to improve profitability, or to first reach profitability, it is important to know the mechanisms behind the cost structure and revenues and how this is related.”
