The co-founders of LEVA-EU member Microlino, Wim and Merlin Ouboter, recently spoke to students at the EU Business School in a Learning From Leaders event, in a session that allowed the attendees to learn directly about the innovative shaping of the world of sustainable mobility.

The father-and-son duo shared what it means to build a family-led company that is challenging the preconceptions and habits of an entire industry. They spoke of Microlino’s journey from initial sketches, to the compact electric light electric vehicle becoming a familiar sight on the streets of Europe. The journey involved “bold ideas, sleepless nights, resilience, and the belief that sustainable mobility should be accessible, compact, and fun.”

In a LinkedIn post, Microlino thanked EU Business School for inviting Wim and Merlin to the stage, and speaking of the student attendees, it said, “We’re excited to see where these young minds drive mobility next.”
