01.01 Décrivez votre projet en détail
Moti connects both individuals and car rental companies with prospective customers. In light of global net carbon emissions efforts, Moti would be instrumental in promoting the transition from fossil fuels to more renewable energy sources. Current policies encourage either e-mobility alternatives or public transportation by making it more expensive to own a vehicle. Consequently, this has been perceived as unfair by African countries bearing the brunt of climate change and looking to leverage fossil fuels to catch up with the rest of the world. By encouraging users to put up their cars for rent and individuals to lease these cars, Moti aims to make cars super accessible, reducing the need to buy one and hopefully contributing to global net emission efforts. We also aim to encourage the transition to e-mobility options by making it more profitable to put up electric cars for rent. Moti + is a fully-fledged business idea on its own sorely focused on promoting renewable energy sources.
01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?
Moti first started to provide an extra revenue stream for car rental agencies and other car owners. It was designed to make renting a car as easy and seamless as possible. However, with the global transition from fossil fuels to more renewable energy sources, I fashioned Moti into a tool that can help. By making vehicles super accessible, Moti seeks to encourage users to rent instead of buy. Our flagship Moti+ idea goes a step further by sorely focusing on renting and leasing electric vehicles. We are essentially trying to contribute to net zero carbon emission efforts by 2050.

1. Moti makes it super easy to find and rent a car online. 2. Moti supports local car rental agencies, adding an extra income stream to their annual turnovers. 3. Moti seeks to contribute to global net zero carbon emissions efforts by making e-mobility options easily accessible. 4. Moti aims to promote city tourism by introducing whole-day tourist passes for tourists. 5. Moti will make it easier for farmers to deliver their produce to the market
01.04 Veuillez décrire précisément à qui s'adressera le produit/service de votre projet. Quels sont les bénéficiaires visés ?
My project was originally intended to make it easier for young and middle-aged professionals (people looking to buy or rent a car) to find and rent a car online. Moti aims to connect car rental agencies with these prospective customers. The idea has now grown to include farmers. The platform will help them hire a vehicle and a driver to deliver their produce to the market quickly. We are also looking to get into the city tourism space by introducing tourist bus passes.

02.01.02 Justification de la contribution de mon projet
My project contributes to the eradication of poverty in all its forms by providing car owners and car rental agencies with an extra source of income online. While car owners are usually thought of as relatively well-to-do, our poverty eradication efforts go a step further. We will be creating direct and indirect employment opportunities for thousands of unemployed youth. Our add-ons like chauffeured rides and tourist guides will need extra personnel. Moti will be happy to extend these new opportunities to the youth.

02.07.02 Justification de la contribution de mon projet
Our flagship idea Moti + seeks to focus sorely on renting and leasing Electric Vehicles (EVs) However, electric cars are seen as expensive and out of touch. With current policies encouraging either public transportation or e-mobility options, Moti seeks to educate the masses on the benefits of EVs and improve the uptake of e-mobility options in the country by leasing and renting which is less expensive than buying an EV. We aim to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.

02.08.02 Justification de la contribution de mon projet
Given the scope of the transport industry in Kenya, we are confident that our entry into the market will promote sustained, inclusive, and sustainable economic growth. Easy access to motorcycles was, in President Mwai Kibaki's administration, credited with providing gainful employment to thousands of unemployed youth and fostering unprecedented economic growth. We are seeking to replicate this phenomenon by broadening the aperture to include easy access to vehicles.

The rise in global temperatures attributed to carbon emissions has largely been responsible for the huge wildfires catastrophic hurricanes and floods globally. By making vehicles super easy to find and rent online and promoting the use of e-mobility options, we hope to reduce carbon emissions in our own small way. Also, our corporate social responsibility plans include huge reforestation efforts and both solar and wind power projects in Nothern Kenya to combat climate change and its impacts.
