This week Oliver interviews Colin Roche from Swiftmile. Shared scooters cluttering up the streets is one of these things that have largely been discounted in the hype of the recent explosion of these new vehicles. The Swiftmile team build scooter parking infrastructure and in this episode with Colin, Oliver’s initial skepticism is assuaged as he learns of the importance of the work that they’re doing in the ecosystem. This conversation really enlightening, and I really hope that you do to. 

Specifically we dig into:

- the history of Swiftmile and how they got into making ‘the gas stations of the future’

- How they pivoted after the initial scooter explosion

- The benefits of agnostic charger infrastructure to both cities and operators

- How and where this infrastructure is being deployed

- Why scooter parking is an important part of the puzzle to social acceptance

- How they’re monetizing their offerings

Cheers!
