Expand your business beyond ride-hailing with a Super App

  The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unimaginable mayhem in most parts of the world. This disaster has two catastrophic outcomes. First, the obvious one is the massive number of loss of lives. And the second outcome is of its impact on world economics. COVID-19 has either slowed down or shut a huge number of businesses across the world. The fear of catching the virus has forced people to stay inside their houses. Moreover, the restrictions imposed by governments like lockdowns and curfew have also caused a massive impact on both small as well as big businesses. If we go industry-wise, then the magnitude of impact varies from one industry to another. Businesses that rely on more human contact are severely impacted.

It is therefore necessary to insist on the virtues of smallness—where this applies.” Today, after almost four and a half decades later his words are truly put to practice with micromobility – a rapidly increasing  transportation service  which includes electric scooters, dockless and docked shared bicycles, e-bikes, electric skateboards, etc. The concept that was introduced to the market in the latter half of the 2010s has resonated with the needs of the consumers which is quite evident from the rapid adoption of micromobility in just a matter of few years. Micromobility is seen as an effective solution that can establish a better connection between people and public transport. This connect would reduce reliance on private vehicles and also help in reducing congestion in urban areas across the globe. Having said t...
