Three months later, the CityMakers partners selected 9 start-ups to collaborate with from October to December 2017. AXA will specifically partner with the following start-ups on 2 challenges: Insuring new mobility services, and developing aggregated multimodality solutions.

Insuring new mobility services

OuiCar, a car-sharing platform, was selected for this challenge. It will work with AXA, Groupe Renault and RCI Bank and Services, to experiment a financially attractive car leasing offer for Peer-to-Peer users.

The challenge for OuiCar is to increase our fleet and rejuvenate it while providing solutions for easier, more flexible and sustainable urban mobility.

Developing aggregated multimodality solutions

Nissan, AXA, RCI Bank and Services and the City of Paris selected Karos and Geo4Cast to work on the simplification of the use of public transportation in the Paris region. Both startups use mobile technology, data and artificial intelligence to ease daily commutes.
