TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – Electric scooter-sharing company, WeMo (威摩科技) will expand its operations beyond Taipei City and into four New Taipei City districts next year, reported CNA.
The company is also in talks about exporting its software and hardware overseas in 2019, said WeMo CEO Jeffery Wu (吳昕霈).
WeMo, an app-based scooter sharing system launched in Oct. 2016, will have 3,000 scooters on the road for single-use trips by the end of the year. The service, currently restricted to sections of Taipei City has around 100,000 users.
Once the service is rolled out in the two remaining districts of Taipei City this year, it will be expanded to parts of New Taipei City in the first quarter of next year, said Wu during an event marking the second anniversary of the company. WeMo will first move into Banqiao District, before expanding into Sanchong, Yonghe, and Zhonghe Districts.
