DANIA BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BLOOM Sharing Technology announces the launch of BLOOM®, a smart mobility platform for implementing bike, e-scooter and other shared transportation programs.
After operating with select clients in a mix of applications including schools, corporate campuses, residential developments, co-working spaces, resorts and rental businesses, BLOOM is opening its platform to international programs of any size. The platform covers everything needed to launch and run a program including a user app, IoT hardware and management tools.
Smart sharing programs make perfect sense for increasing productivity and mobility. BLOOM recognizes that so many potential programs are hyper localized or specialized solutions that may never benefit from like minded municipal programs. “Opening up and simplifying access to shared mobility is the way to spread this benefit wherever it can flourish,” said BLOOM founder Avery Pack. Designed as an open sharing ecosystem, the BLOOM platform makes it possible for the “seed of an idea to grow into a robust shared mobility network,” according to Mr. Pack. “We’ve been working with forward thinking clients in so many different fields to focus our vision. We’re excited about opening up even more.”
The market for last-mile transportation has been rapidly evolving in the past year. Dockless bike share, significantly emerging in the municipal market, elevated public awareness of the potential of shared mobility. Micro mobility, e-scooters, e-bikes, and light electric vehicle sharing, a hot topic in Silicon Valley and other urban centers, are also on the rise. These transportation alternatives have the potential to serve a staggering 60 percent of trips under five miles in the US alone. Venture capitalists, investing in municipal operators like Lime and Bird, are betting that this market will proliferate as people embrace shared transport as an affordable, enjoyable and efficient alternative.
BLOOM is a uniquely turnkey solution for launching and growing sharing programs for a broad range of applications. In addition to the BLOOM mobile app, IoT hardware, and management tools, BLOOM has partnered with equipment providers such as Republic Bike, to offer complete packages including low-maintenance, custom branded sharing bicycles and electric kickscooters.
The platform also hosts enterprise programs that BLOOM clients have been using to implement completely customized sharing programs such as corporate bike shares, electric scooter shares, dockless municipal bike shares, and private sharing amenities.
