Nir Erez
Nir Erez
Co-Founder & President

Nir Erez sees the future of urban mobility and in it, data is the determinant.

Erez co-founded Moovit with Roy Bick and Yaron Evron in February 2012 with the goal
of simplifying urban mobility around the world. The company grew quickly with four
rounds of funding totaling $133 million

Erez is a serial entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience leading technology

applies to business. “You must anticipate the reaction to every action,” Erez says. “In
business, every problem has a solution. It just takes the right team, time and resources.
It’s also a marathon, not a sprint.” Marathons are something Erez knows intimately as
an avid triathlete who completed multiple marathons and Ironman races in the last 15
years.
