Holding a sound academic and research background in transportation and energy systems, Dr. Regina Clewlow is redefining micromobility. Populus, owned by Dr. Regina, is a very innovative and futuristic startup with a mission of bringing better management of mobility in cities.

Dr. Regina, a PhD holder from MIT, blends two extraordinarily growing sectors of our time: data and micromobility. Nowadays, many industries are adopting data-based software to elevate businesses. At the same time, 2018 witnessed unprecedented growth of micromobility, especially the dockless electric bike-sharing platforms such as Lime and Bird. The increasing number of mobility startups and users make the city transportation messy. Populus is buckling down to solve the emerging urban catastrophe.

Founded in 2017, Populus is developing the most necessary platform for the coming years. The software aggregate the fragmented live mobility data feeds from multiple operators to help city administrations and lawmakers to monitor shared mobility services. Thus, the data results in an efficient way of transportation management. Similarly, the Populus platform helps the micromobility operators to enhance the business by learning the customer base.
