About the webinar

The webinar aims to contribute to generate capacities for the creation of business models for bicycle sharing systems. With this purpose, we will present research carried out by WRI based on more than 30 case studies worldwide to decipher the key elements for the implementation of these systems. We will discuss the elements that are part of these systems, as well as the resources and financial products that exist to pay for them. Finally, the case study of Ecobici in Mexico City will be presented, explaining how the business model was built for this city.

The webinar will be held in Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the Secretariat of the LEDS LAC Platform: info@ledslac.org.
