Leading Helbiz’s newest region is Mitchell Price, an experienced business executive and industry leader for safe regulation in micro-mobility. As Regional Managing Director for Helbiz in the Asia Pacific Region, Mitchell will oversee the operations and expansion of Helbiz’s micro-mobility program, unlocking first and last mile transport solutions and connecting commuters to public transport. Prior to joining Helbiz, Mitchell was Chief of Staff to an Australian Member of Parliament and senior executive for Lime and Superpedestrian in the APAC.

“I’m thrilled to launch Helbiz’s newest region in my home country, providing Australians with access to a gas-free, affordable transportation alternative,” said Mitchell Price, Helbiz Regional Managing Director, APAC. “We’re kicking it off with this great trial collaboration with alloggio that equips visitors with everything they need to fully immerse themselves in clean energy transportation in popular tourism destinations.

Helbiz will initially provide scooters at some of alloggio’s major holiday destination hubs including Noosa, Brisbane, and Magnetic Island in Queensland.

“As Australia re-opens to the world and we start to see domestic and international travel continue to increase, alloggio is excited to work with Helbiz to provide an Australian first for our guests who stay at our alloggio managed properties,” said Will Creedon, Chief Executive Officer & Founder of alloggio.

The e-scooters are powered by 100% clean energy and will reduce single-occupant motor vehicle trips in the area, helping alloggio meet its goal of creating more sustainable communities. The scooter ride can be started and paid for through the Helbiz app.
