Periodic Reporting for period 1 - ENROUTE (ENROUTE: WORK YOUR RIDE)
Reporting period: 2018-10-01 to 2019-03-31
Being a winner of the DB mindbox, and a participant at Startup Autobahn as well as Plug and Play Silicon Valley, we are already an award-winning startup. Until 2025 we expect to have grown to be an international company, offering our disruptive technology to all major markets worldwide, being able to globalize our socio-economic impact. During the Project, we expect to further stabilize and expand our technology and our services offered. We will become the major player connecting two markets of a combined worth of more than $2 Trillion.
During the feasibility study, we confirmed the viability of Enroute from a technical, practical, commercial and financial point of view.
In addition, Enroute brings societal benefits as helping improve sustainable cities, which are part of the European Union’s 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). Thanks to reduced costs of rides in mass-transit and shared mobility platforms, city dwellers will be encouraged to leave their private car at home and use alternative mobility services. Local businesses could offer their products and reach greater audiences. We believe in strengthening the community through strong local businesses and not only e-commerce giants. A more appealing mass transit and shared mobility will also benefit the war against climate change, as fewer cars means fewer emissions of car pollutants. Our “Click & Collect” option tells you the nearest retailer who has the product you ordered. This reduces the distance you should travel to get your desired product, which decreases the emissions of car pollutants. Likewise, the delivery service allows you to order a product and then have it delivered to your home. This means only one car is driving to get the product from retailer to customer.
