Starbolt

Starbolt is a French startup founded in 2018 that offers electric bikes on a subscription basis for businesses, dedicated to their employees. The company aims to democratize the use of electric mobility for enterprises through two main offerings. The first is an electric bike subscription at €59/month, with no commitment, theft insurance, and covered by the sustainable mobility package. The second offering is a shared fleet service for businesses and business centers, complete with comprehensive support for implementing the service, including site layout, equipment, and bike-related events. Starbolt's bikes are manufactured in Vendée and positioned as the "Ford" of bikes: standard, universal, durable, and repairable. The company also operates "Starbolt repair" workshops in cities where it is expanding, offering on-demand maintenance services close to its users. In September 2022, Starbolt secured a €2.00M Seed Round investment from Pays de la Loire Participations and Atlantique Vendée Innovation. With its innovative approach and strategic focus on sustainable mobility, Starbolt presents an exciting investment opportunity in the retail industry.
