The leading European electric two-wheel manufacturer

Thomas is an entrepreneur and pioneer in the field of electric mobility with more than 20 years of experience in this field. After years in Hong Kong and a successful exit from e-max that was acquired by Vmoto, Thomas founded Govecs in 2009.

Today, Govecs has a 10.5% market share in the fragmented shared electric moped market, making it the fourth-largest manufacturer in the world and the largest from Europe.

We spoke with him about the benefits and advantages of being a German-based company with production facilities in Europe, the increasing importance of total cost of ownership (TCO) for a P&L-oriented mobility operator, and where he wants to steer his company.
