INDUSTRY
Micromobility & Shared Mobility
TIMELINE
2021 - 2022

PROJECT CONTEXT

The Situation

The client is a European micromobility leasing and management company, providing shared e-bike and e-scooter fleets to businesses and cities across multiple markets. As part of its growth strategy, the company was evaluating market entry into several European markets and needed a clear, evidence-based view of how corporate mobility budgets are structured and applied across Europe to inform its business case.

With a board-level strategic review approaching, the client had only a matter of days to bring together a concise, credible overview of the European mobility budget landscape. Internal teams were already stretched on day-to-day fleet operations, and the company needed an independent expert who could move quickly, build on existing internal research, and translate the findings into a small set of decision-ready slides in the client's own corporate design.

 

Key Challenges

  1. A tight, board-driven deadline for the first deliverable

  2. Limited internal bandwidth to run additional research alongside daily fleet operations

  3. A fragmented view of how mobility budgets vary across European markets

  4. A need for findings that were credible, concise and immediately usable at leadership level

What We Did

Mobility Transitions was engaged as an independent market research expert to analyze corporate mobility budgets across Europe and translate the findings into market-entry recommendations for a few selected markets.

Working directly with the client's strategy lead, we:

  • Reviewed and built on the client's existing internal research on mobility budgets

  • Analyzed how mobility budgets are structured and benchmarked across European markets

  • Distilled the findings into implications for a market-entry business case

  • Delivered a concise slide deck in the client's own corporate design, ready for leadership review


How We Delivered

  • Rapid, senior-level delivery on a tight timeline

  • Direct, single point-of-contact engagement with no overhead

  • Research grounded in the client's own existing work, not a fresh study from scratch

  • Output built for how leadership actually decides: a small number of clear, focused slides

THE OUTCOMES

Business Impact

The research gave leadership an independent, outside-in perspective on European mobility budget practices at exactly the moment it was needed for a fast-moving strategic decision. It strengthened the credibility of the France market-entry business case and showed how a short, focused engagement can deliver material input to a time-critical strategic review.

Tangible Results

  • A concise, board-ready slide deck delivered on schedule
  • A clear, comparative view of mobility budget practices across European markets
  • Independent, credible evidence to strengthen the France market-entry business case
  • Findings delivered directly in the client's own corporate design, ready to present
