Zeus Mobility, the Irish electric scooter company, is ramping up its presence in the UK where it recently signed a new agreement with a ninth local authority to provide its services in the jurisdiction.
“Slough is a very busy borough. A lot of enterprises, a lot of residential areas,” he said. “This is our ninth location in the UK. We operate in nearby Aylesbury, High Wycombe and then further afield so we’re all over the place.” The new rules, which came into force on Monday as part of the Road Traffic and Roads Act 2023, have been “a long time coming”, the former banker said, “but are welcome now at this stage”.
Mr Young, a finalist in the emerging category of this year’s EOY competition, travelled to South Africa on Sunday as part of a delegation of more than 100 Irish entrepreneurs, including the 24 finalists and a large cohort of past participants.
