TIER Mobility joins ITF Corporate Partnership Board

TIER, Europe's leading micro-mobility provider of shared e-scooters, e-bikes and e-mopeds in over 90 cities across eleven countries, has joined the International Transport Forum’s (ITF) Corporate Partnership Board. TIER and the ITF will work together on the future of micro-mobility, decarbonisation of transport, mobility in cities, and workforce diversity.

Young Tae Kim, Secretary-General of the ITF, said:

“I welcome TIER as the newest member of the ITF’s Corporate Partnership Board, our platform for dialogue and collaboration with the private sector”, said “TIER is showing the way as an innovator of urban mobility and also a climate-neutral company. The ITF is delighted that TIER will be part of the global dialogue for better transport. TIER’s innovative mindset and commitment to transforming urban mobility will benefit the work of the ITF and the Corporate Partnership Board in many areas, not least on decarbonising transport.”

Ashwini Chhabra, TIER’s Chief Public Policy Officer, said:

We very much look forward to working with the ITF to advance their vital work on decarbonising transport and creating safer, more equitable and more sustainable urban mobility solutions. The ITF has spearheaded some of the most impactful research to date on the safety and sustainability of micro-mobility and we are proud to be the industry voice for shared micro-mobility contributing to their future agenda. Building a sustainable future is a cross-cutting and collective challenge, which is why  joining the Corporate Partnerships Board is a great opportunity for us to work with stakeholders from across the transport sector on long-term initiatives.”

ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT FORUM

Who we are
The International Transport Forum is an intergovernmental organisation with 62 member countries. It acts as a think tank for transport policy and organises the Annual Summit of transport ministers. ITF is the only global body that covers all transport modes. The ITF is administratively integrated with the OECD, yet politically autonomous.

What we do
ITF works for transport policies that improve peoples’ lives. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the role of transport in economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social inclusion and to raise the public profile of transport policy.

How we do it
ITF organises global dialogue for better transport. We act as a platform for discussion and pre-negotiation of policy issues across all transport modes. We analyse trends, share knowledge and promote exchange among transport decision-makers and civil society. ITF’s Annual Summit is the world’s largest gathering of transport ministers and the leading global platform for dialogue on transport policy.
