There’s plenty of challenges to be addressed to make intermodal mobility solutions a truly viable option within urban mobility. How can we make intermodality really sustainable and equitable? How can we integrate it with an existing public transport infrastructure? How can we ensure it’s easily adopted by users? I’ve put together five principles to navigate these challenges.
Looking at the urban mobility industry in 2021 and beyond, I am expecting a new normal will emerge where we combine working from home and working from the office into a new weekly rhythm. This will significantly decrease the commute needs of mainly the knowledge workers representing 26% of the workforce and create a unique opportunity for ride-hailing and the taxi industry.
The Tech Rocketship Awards are designed to turbocharge the international growth of Europe’s most innovative startups via the UK. We are honoured to receive this recognition.
Learn how intermodality might help ride-hailing operators to grow their revenues and enable passengers to get comfortable, guaranteed and affordable commute at the same time.
How to leverage digital technology to interconnect public transport with taxi & ride-hail services to optimize the entire system and effectively reduce the number of cars in cities and congestion? That’s what Mileus was founded for.
Juraj Atlas has raised a pre-seed round of 400,000€ for his new startup Mileus that aims to improve the overall traffic situation in large European cities. The platform will make travelling easier by interconnecting public transport with ride-hailing services.
Juraj Atlas, Mileus CEO, about his journey leading from global corporations to a start-up that helps ride-hailers grow and makes our cities more livable at the same time.
“Mileus solution is more comfortable than public transport alone and cheaper than a taxi alone,” says Juraj Atlas. Mileus automatically interconnects ride-hailing services with transit system lines, improving the comfort and convenience of public transport while motivating people to leave their cars at home.
The aim of cities all around the world is clear: to limit the number of cars on streets. But how to motivate residents to leave their cars at home? And as there’s no quick, one-size-fits-all solution, how to find the right point of focus?
Interconnecting the two modes of transportation means decreasing the number of cars in city centers, increasing the comfort of public transport for suburban residents, and also having a positive impact on the environment.
Are ride-hailing operators hitting a marketing conundrum? The desire to win new customers and increase revenue per customer is hitting the ceiling in our cities. It is therefore necessary to look for new opportunities to work better with the customer and attract their attention.
Ride-hail growth is possible, even in contemporary cities that strive for fewer cars in the streets. The solution is in the combination of taxi and public transport.
Could have been RIDETO, could have been mileeto, but finally, it is Mileus! How and why we got our name? Dive deeper into our (hi)story of making cities more liveable.
Initially, we all believed that ride-hailing would help decrease car overload and congestion, but we’ve seen the exact opposite happened. However, there is a comfortable alternative to ride-hailing: intermodality.
Cities face the challenge of how to enhance mobility, ensure accessibility, and create high quality and efficient transport systems while reducing congestion, pollution and accidents. At Mileus, we believe that the future of urban transportation lies in intermodality.
