Last year, we shared news about The Company Lab’s new programmatic focus on the sustainable mobility sector — the future-forward movement of people, goods, energy, and data.

Now, in partnership with gener8tor, The Company Lab has announced the five startups in its inaugural Sustainable Mobility Accelerator cohort. Fun fact: The participants were chosen from a competitive pool of 145 startups from 25 countries.

Meet the participants:

  • MarsCharge | Delivers “ultrafast” electric vehicle chargers to reduce costs + enhance the resiliency of the electric grid
  • FLUIX | Optimizes data center efficiency
  • Coulomb AI | Elevates battery safety, reliability, and sustainability
  • Xtelligent | Revolutionizes traffic control
  • Terminus | Enables public authorities + governments to be proactive in making their cities smarter, safer, and more efficient

The 12-week program will kick off on Thursday, Jan. 18, providing each team with a $20,000 investment + the opportunity to be centered around mentorship, collaboration with Chattanooga’s Sustainable Mobility leaders, and access to pilot opportunities.
