Ioki Ventures into US Market with Georgetown University Partnership

ioki, a European leader in digital public transit solutions, is expanding its operations to the United States with the establishment of a subsidiary. Their first US customer, Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., will implement ioki's on-demand shuttle service from October 2026. This move marks a strategic step in ioki's international growth plan.

With its expansion, ioki aims to adapt and enhance individual public transport solutions in the US. The company focuses on assisting public transport authorities to automate and expand services sustainably. Dr. Michael Barillère-Scholz, co-founder and CEO of ioki, considers this expansion a testament to their platform's adaptability beyond European borders.

Tobias Liebelt, CEO of BENTELER Mobility, emphasized the strategic importance of this expansion, aligning with their vision to promote economically viable autonomous mobility integration. The US market presents similar challenges as Europe, making ioki's expertise in data-driven transport planning and mobility simulation highly pertinent.
