Founded in 2017 by Travis VanderZanden, Bird is a technology and transportation company focused on providing environmentally friendly transportation solutions to communities. The company operates a fleet of shared electric scooters and bikes that can be located and rented through its mobile application, aiming to reduce car trips, traffic congestion, and carbon emissions. After a period of rapid global expansion, the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in December 2023 and was subsequently acquired by its lenders, emerging as a private company to continue its operations.
