About
Speen develops smart e-bike technologies, optimized for commuters. Speen’s patent-pending technologies focus on raising the bar on safety and simplicity through smart propulsion automation, and the implementation of a ground-breaking human-machine interface that brings connectivity to everyday cyclists.
Solution & Product
Speen’s product line-up of smart e-bike systems is class leading in energy density worldwide and incorporates a commuter’s centric IoT setup that monitors product performance, rider’s safety and urban living.
This is achieved via Speen’s patent-pending HMI technology (‘Sense’), its sensory technology (‘React’) and the scalable design of the components of Speen’s systems.
Innovation & Scalability
Speen’s patent pending HMI tech (‘Sense’) can improve radically riders’ safety, bikes’ security as well as riding experience, offering a controlled connectivity environment. ‘Sense’ tech is implemented on bikes’ brake levers and can be extended in all types of two-wheelers.
Speen’s ‘React’ e-bike tech can offer smart propulsion automation while at the same time provide class leading energy density worldwide. Speen’s React e-bike systems can monitor product’s performance, rider’s safety and collect insights on improving cities’ infrastructures such as movement patterns, incident hotspots and quality of the terrain.
Traction & achievements
Speen collaborates with innovation driven bike manufacturers such as Ballistic, Coco-mat and Velo-lab and joins forces with e-mobility companies and city planners on generating a pull model towards sustainable transport and smarter ecosystems

Funding Needs
Speen has established a national network in the Greek market and will plan to launch its next Gen of technologies on March 2021 in the EU market.
With that said, Speen will need funding to reinforce its EU expansion efforts by building a robust sales and after sales network, scale-up its production capacity and strengthen its R&D team.
We develop smart technologies for bikes and e-bikes.
