Overview
Forest is a London micromobility company founded in 2019 that runs an electric bike sharing scheme across the capital. Its fleet is funded partly through in-app advertising, which allowed it to offer a free daily riding allowance rather than charging for every minute. The company works under agreements with London boroughs on parking and fleet size.
