This week Oliver interviews Alper Oktem, CEO and founder of Marti, which as far as we can tell, is the largest Micromobility operator in Turkey. Oliver has  long wanted to cover the Turkish Micromobility market, because it is such a large country, and they are proportionately so underserved. 

Turkey is proportionately underserved with transport options in the cities – Istanbul is considered one of the most congested cities in the world. This was a great conversation and Alper is a real go-getter in the Micromobility space. 

This was a great conversation, especially around funding and the importance of building Micromobility markets for the demographics and countries that they are operating in. 

Lots of lessons in this episode. Oliver will be interviewing Alper again at the Micromobility America conference which, is happening on the 15th and 16th of September, so hopefully we will see you there and if not, we will have all of these conversations and videos coming out and up in the very near future.

Specifically they tackle:
