Helbiz, Inc. is an American intra-urban transportation company headquartered in New York City with an aim to solve the first mile/last mile transportation problem of high-traffic urban areas around the world.

Government Collaboration
In October 2018, the approval by the Italian minister of Transportation allowed the legalization of electric scooters as a mobility service in the country of Italy, which allows Helbiz to operate its Micromobility services to individual municipalities and communities.
Helbiz announced the intention to file a dual list Initial Public Offering on NASDAQ and on the Borsa Italiana AIM Italia exchange.
