At MOBI, we work with forward-thinking companies, governments, and NGOs to make mobility services more efficient, more affordable, greener, safer, and less congested by promoting standards and accelerating the adoption of blockchain, distributed ledger, and related technologies. We believe that blockchain will increasingly impact provision of mobility services by enabling business networks to reduce the cost of coordinating their activities.
