Impact and desired outcomes

People around the world began using bicycles more often for their commute over the past two decades. It is growing so fast that cycling has become one of the main modes of transportation in most countries. Having the experience of living in the Netherlands, the leading nation for commute cycling, during the early 2000s, the founder of MAZDIS has foreseen the problems that cyclists, local governments and property owners are going to face in the future. This was the foundation to start MAZDIS by addressing the main problem of commute cycling which is secure and space-efficient bicycle parking solutions.
