The Comparable is a podcast by i2i Ventures that seeks to uncover the journeys and stories of emerging market startups, but instead of looking at one company in one market, we look at two in a side by side comparison in order to showcase the commonalities but also some of the nuanced differences of both markets, as well as the stories of the founders building these innovations.

EV Mobility: Nigeria (MAX) & Pakistan (ezBike)

The potential for electric vehicle mobility in emerging markets is enormous. In Nigeria, there are 5.1M motorbikes on the road, the most in Subsaharan Africa. Pakistan has the 6th largest motorcycle ownership in the world, with 17.5M motorbikes on the road. At the same time, rising fuel prices and governments committed to converting vehicles to electric to combat the climate crisis, mean there's an opportunity for businesses building in this space.

This episode showcases the stories of MAX, co-founded by Adetayo Bamiduo, based in Nigeria (expanding across Africa), and ezBike, co-founded by Ali Moeen, based in Pakistan. It also features insights by Brian Waswani Odhiambo, Partner at Novastar Ventures, a key investor in MAX.
