GoWithFlow, delivering the first end-to-end sustainable mobility management solution, has just won the award for best CleanTech and Industry 4.0 Startup in Portugal and is ranked fourth among the Top 25 in a nationwide ranking by Building Global Innovators (BGI) and EIT Digital.

The award was presented today at the Scaleup Portugal Gala, an online event where the most promising young companies were recognized.

GoWithFlow won the award for best Portuguese startup in the CleanTech and Industry 4.0 category for its Sustainable Mobility Management (SMM) solution, which plans, manages and maximizes the entire transport ecosystem within an organization — from determining the best approach to electrification of a fleet, to managing a multimodal set of traditional, hybrid and electric vehicles, to optimizing all aspects of energy management of the EV charging infrastructure. Managed holistically as part of a business-class technology solution, companies deploying the Flow SMM solution reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, save money on transportation costs, and create options for their employees on how they commute to and from work.

“In just our first year as a commercial company, Flow’s clients have eliminated more than 5.000 tons of carbon dioxide, and they’ve saved an average of 225€ per vehicle transitioned to electric,” said Jane Hoffer, CEO of Flow. “To be named the best CleanTech and Industry 4.0 startup is amazing validation that our vision and our hard work are being seen as transformative. That’s really what are working toward — to change the way people and companies move, for the better.”

In addition to this award, GoWithFlow was also ranked fourth among the top 25 Portuguese scaleups in the Scaleup Portugal 2020 report, which evaluates young companies on criteria including capital raised, revenues, number of employees, time to market, and the impact they have had on the Portuguese ecosystem.
