Network

We put together a team of experts to reflect the nature and scope of your project, and get the right external partners involved.

Idea

velovia founder Kristof Halasz cycles a lot. He often gets to the end of a cycle path and wonders why more cycle paths aren’t networked. And if the cycleway ends here, why isn’t there a café to provide a quiet spot where you can plan your next trip? And moreover, why aren’t cycle maps up to date?

The answers are obvious: what’s needed is a well-designed concept. And that was the germ of the idea that gave rise to velovia.

The company logo is an extract from a map of Berlin, where velovia took its first steps in business and where the green cycle path runs past Bregenz street. Bregenz is where Kristof learnt to cycle.
