Beam Mobility
The Singapore startup that turned the shared e-scooter into a negotiation with city hall - and is now merging its way to more than 100 cities.
Joyride
Joyride is a Toronto-based mobility software company that gives operators, cities, dealers and OEMs a white-label platform to launch and run shared and rental fleets of e-bikes, e-scooters, golf carts, low-speed vehicles and other lightweight vehicles. Its hardware-agnostic system turns vehicles into connected, keyless and trackable assets, pairing branded rider apps with a fleet-management dashboard, IoT connectivity, payments and increasingly AI-driven operations tools. Founded in 2014 and backed by Yamaha Motor, Joyride powers fleets across 250+ markets on five continents.
Candice Xie
Candice Xie is the co-founder and CEO of Veo, the micromobility company she started in 2017 from West Lafayette, Indiana, while still in her twenties. A finance analyst by training rather than a Silicon Valley engineer, she built Veo into the first North American shared-micromobility operator to reach unadjusted EBIT profitability - reaching roughly $52 million in revenue on about $16 million of total funding, while competitors raised billions and flamed out. Calling herself an 'anti-tech bro' CEO and the 'tortoise' of the scooter race, she designs vehicles in-house, expands one city at a time, and won the largest exclusive micromobility contract in the United States with Denver.
Veo
Veo is a Santa Monica-based shared micromobility company that designs, manufactures and operates electric scooters, e-bikes and cargo bikes for cities and university campuses across North America. Founded in 2017 by Purdue graduates Candice Xie and Edwin Tan, Veo built the industry's most diverse vehicle fleet through an in-house design team and became the first profitable shared micromobility operator in the U.S. Rather than chasing growth at any cost, Veo bet on deliberate expansion, exclusive city and campus contracts, and durable, purpose-built vehicles - a strategy that delivered unadjusted EBIT profitability in 2024 while many better-funded rivals retreated.
Lime
Lime is the world's largest shared electric vehicle company, renting dockless e-scooters and e-bikes through a single app across more than 200 cities in nearly 30 countries. Founded in 2017 as LimeBike, it pitches micromobility as the practical alternative to short car trips: cheaper, electric, and carbon-free. After surviving a brutal industry shakeout, Lime has turned cash-flow positive and filed to go public on Nasdaq under the ticker LIME.
Wayne Ting
Wayne Ting is the CEO of Lime, the world's largest shared electric vehicle company, where since 2020 he has led the green scooter-and-bike fleet from cash-burning startup to the first profitable micromobility business of its kind. A Taiwan-born Nebraska kid turned Columbia class president, Obama policy advisor, and Uber chief of staff, he has spent his career on the operational side of big consumer platforms.
