Meet LEVA-EU at SPEZI 2026

20/04/2026

2 minutes

SPEZI has long been the go-to gathering for the world of special and innovative cycling — recumbents, cargo bikes, velomobiles, adaptive cycles, and everything beyond the diamond frame. This year, the show moves to a new home at Messe Freiburg, a cycling city that is a natural fit for an event celebrating the mobility of the future.

LEVA-EU, Europe’s only trade association dedicated exclusively to the Light Electric Vehicle industry, will be on the ground both days. It is an opportunity not to be missed for industry professionals who want to connect directly with the association’s team.

The LEV sector is growing rapidly — but outdated and fragmented regulations continue to slow down innovation, market access, and cross-border sales. SPEZI is a great place to discuss what we are doing about it.

Who you will find there

Two senior members of the LEVA-EU team will be present throughout the weekend: Annick Roetynck is the Managing Director
of LEVA-EU. Laurent Guérisse is the Membership, Account & Growth Manager.

What you can talk about

Whether you are already a member or simply curious about what LEVA-EU does, Saturday and Sunday at SPEZI offer a relaxed setting to have a real conversation.

Topics on the table include:

LEVA-EU membership — find out how joining the association can give your company a direct voice in EU-level advocacy, help you navigate complex regulations, and connect you with the broader LEV industry across Europe.

Key sector issues — from EN 15194, the EN 17860-series to the Machinery Regulation and Battery Regulation, Annick and Laurent are well placed to exchange views on the challenges and opportunities shaping the industry right now.

Networking and insight — SPEZI brings together manufacturers, suppliers, and mobility enthusiasts from across Europe and beyond. LEVA-EU’s presence there reflects its commitment to being where the industry is.
