We’re proud to share that Vapaus has been recognised among the Blue Earth Summit’s BE100 companies, a distinction celebrating ventures driving scalable solutions for planetary health.
Our Founder and CEO, Mikko Ampuja, says the recognition reinforces Vapaus’ mission to make cycling a mainstream choice across Europe:
“This is a powerful vote of confidence in the idea that employee bike benefits can be a pillar of climate-smart mobility.”
Scaling Climate-Smart Commuting
Founded in Finland, Vapaus partners with employers to provide employee bike benefit programs that make cycling an affordable, healthy, and convenient commuting option for employees.
Following our merger with Lille-based Azfalte, Vapaus now operates in Finland, Sweden and France, accelerating the shift toward sustainable mobility across Europe.
Recognition That Fuels Impact
Being selected for the BE100 offers more than just visibility — it connects us with a global community of changemakers committed to climate-positive growth.
“It gives Vapaus wider exposure to investors, corporates, policy makers, and media listening for scalable climate solutions,” Ampuja explains.
A Shared Vision for Business and Planet
At the Blue Earth Summit 2025 in London, Vapaus aims to inspire business leaders to see sustainability and employee wellbeing as compounding advantages — not trade-offs.
“A strong employee bike benefit program reduces carbon, improves health, lowers absenteeism, and enhances satisfaction,” says Ampuja.
With tens of thousands of cyclists already commuting through our program, this recognition is a reminder that climate-smart mobility is not just possible in the future — it’s happening right now.
