Company mission
To make active travel the default choice for inner city transport & logistics.
Our take
Anyone who has had a bike stolen in the past will know that it's a gut-wrenching experience. It’s no secret that bike theft is a major issue, particularly in London, and one that the authorities are struggling to grapple with. The ramifications go well beyond simple property loss, as well. Lack of secure storage is a big hinderance for green transport, leading to increased pollution and busier roads.
Spokesafe is looking to fix this. Founded in 2019, its platform allows cyclists to find and access secure bike parking in major cities. Cyclists use an app to find, pay for, and access a network of secure spaces, allowing them to leave their bikes in safety and enjoy peace of mind.
Spokesafe's market is looking really promising. Record numbers of urban cyclists have been recorded in recent years, and this is a trend which is growing across the world. Following key funding, Spokesafe is focusing on the expansion of its platform and growth in new cities.
