Our company
Convinced that the ecological transition must include a means of public transport capable of competing with the car on travel time, Urbanloop develops, produces and supervises a 100% autonomous, electric transport solution. With no waiting or intermediate stops, Urbanloop revolutionizes individual mobility by offering a real alternative to the private car via a network of guided capsules on exclusive right-of-way.
Several local authorities have already put their trust in us to deploy these solutions, including Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines for the Paris 2024 Olympics and Nancy, where we are developing a 7 km, 7-station, 40-capsule circuit.
Joining us means joining a young, committed and close-knit team of around thirty people who are working for tomorrow's transportation. It means joining a start-up recognized as one of the most promising in the field of mobility, winner of the FrenchTech 2030 program, and getting involved in shaping the life of the company.
