“Our vision is to be a fast track developer of advanced mobility products.”

In this episode of Third Angle, we take a guided tour of the YCOM HQ, a leader in motorsports engineering and lightweight composites. Join us as we explore how founder Nicola Scimeca is changing the automotive industry, overseeing every aspect from concept to completion.

Discover how YCOM pioneered the world's first fleet of racing e-scooters for the Electric Scooter Championship (ESC) and learn about their unique approach to product development, which involves rapid prototyping and collaboration with former MotoGP riders. Born in 2008, YCOM has expanded its expertise beyond motorsports into the automotive, marine, and aerospace sectors, becoming a globally recognized leader in lightweight composite structures. With a focus on sustainability, they’re paving the way for a more eco-friendly future through the use of natural fiber materials alongside carbon fiber.

Tune in to hear how YCOM is setting new standards for innovation and safety in micro-mobility and the exciting developments on the horizon.
