This is a massive leap forward for the Miami-based startup, which was co-founded in 2018 by Olympic Gold Medalist and Worlds Fastest Man, Usain Bolt.
Key Points:
- This is a massive leap forward for the Miami-based startup, which was co-founded in 2018 by Olympic Gold Medalist and Worlds Fastest Man, Usain Bolt.
- We founded Bolt because we believe in micromobility as a movement that can transform the way people live and move within their communities, said Usain Bolt.
- For now, riders in Bolts new markets will continue to be able to access and use the e-scooters, e-bikes, and pedal bikes through the Gotcha Mobility, LLC (Gotcha) and OjO Electric (OjO) iOS and Android mobile apps.
- A number of former Gotcha and OjO employees will be joining the Bolt team, including Gotchas former Chief Operating Officer, Matt Tolan.
