We're excited about this next phase for Lime, led by our new CEO Wayne Ting! As Wayne points out in @protocol, micromobility is more important now than ever before, and today's news strengthens our ability to support cities and our riders.https://t.co/uWPpfFpXAa

Through our 10yr friendship, I've come to place @wayneting in that rare air category - the smartest guy I now AND one of the most caring. Couldn't be more confident @limebike has the leader it needs. Congrats, buddy.https://t.co/q7DxJ36eju

Uber, Lyft and now Lime say people will choose rides or scooters as a safer transit option when we go back outside. This seems to ignore that we're all gonna be broke and public transit is cheaper. Do you think you'll Uber/scoot more in the After Times? https://t.co/vw9NwlKIsk

“Already in some of its restarted cities, like Berlin and Columbus, Ohio, Lime is seeing average trip fares go up as people ride scooters for longer distances. Seoul is back to nearly all-time highs”

I talked to Lime's new CEO @wayneting earlier today: "This gives us a chance to fight back to whatever valuation happened before."
He's ready to double down on Lime's international markets following the $170 million from Uber and othershttps://t.co/p8cBTFAN1B

우버 등에서 170M 투자를 다운라운드로 받은 라임의 새 CEO 인터뷰 https://t.co/tTtoyWGiPZ 우버의 점프가 라임으로 통합. 우버앱에서 라임서비스를 이용가능하도록 통합. 코로나 시대에 혼자 이용해 이동이 가능한 킥보드가 더 인기라고. 특히 서울이 아주 잘되는 시장이라고 언급. pic.twitter.com/uwgNF1BA2F

While the focus has been on walking & cycling in the post-Covid world, micromobility is likely to reboot even stronger. Creating collaborators out of competitors signals big technology moves afoot. Pulling the barrier to micromobility in L2 would be smart.https://t.co/1PmJLlakuZ

Congrats to @wayneting on being promoted to CEO of @limebike as it merges with @Uber’s JUMP bike & scooter division and raises $170M. Wayne is one of the most impressive people I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. Great to see this, v well deserved! https://t.co/upApU5CyYh
