EVPass is a South Korean-based start-up with a vision to transform urban transportation with innovative electric kickboards. The company is on a mission to create a smart and eco-friendly transportation system that enables people to move around safely and stylishly. With a focus on customer experience and convenience, EVPass aims to become a leading player in the global electric motorcycle and kickboard market.


According to market research firm Global Market Insights, the global electric motorcycle and kickboard market was valued at approximately USD 15.5 billion in 2017, with an expected compound annual growth rate of about 5 percent by 2024. The industry is already emerging as a trendy and high-potential market, with global venture capital firms such as Sequoia Capital and Uber rushing to invest.


EVPass aims to differentiate itself from existing solutions by offering a more advanced and innovative product. The company's electric kickboards have a unique design with a low gravity center, enabling better stability and control. The product is also more adaptable and customizable than existing solutions, with various functions that can be modified according to users' preferences.


The company's first target market is South Korea, where there has been a surge in demand for electric kickboards. As of April 2020, there were over 214,000 monthly active users of electric kickboard applications in South Korea, up six-fold from the previous year. However, EVPass aims to expand globally, leveraging its technological know-how and accumulated market experience.


EVPass has a team of experts in various fields, including engineering, marketing, and design. The team has experience in developing and launching innovative products and services in the Korean market, and they are committed to creating a world-class electric kickboard that offers a safe, stylish, and smart way to travel.


The company's long-term goal is to develop more scientific and future-oriented travel and tourism products and services by utilizing big data. They are currently collaborating with KT, a leading telecommunications company in Korea, to collect and analyze data related to movements. This partnership enables the company to leverage KT's technical development capabilities and public data projects to create a more advanced and user-friendly electric kickboard.


In the future, EVPass plans to introduce managed unmanned shared electric kickboards that will be operated through an IoT model. This innovation is expected to generate significant demand from tourists in city centers. With a commitment to customer satisfaction and innovation, EVPass is poised to revolutionize urban transportation and make traveling safer, easier, and more enjoyable.


p.s. EVPass has been designated as a recipient of the TIPS grant, effective September 2022, following a recommendation from Enlight Ventures

*Technology Incubator Program for Startups (TIPS) is an initiative established by the government of South Korea to provide grant support for technology startups.
