One of Uber Technologies Inc’s European rivals, Taxify OU, has brought its ride-hailing business under the same brand as its e-scooter arm, ahead of a year of expansion into new markets. 

Taxify will become Bolt, its chief executive officer said in an interview. The Didi Chuxing and Daimler AG-backed company has predominantly concentrated on Eastern Europe and African markets, but launched its e-scooter business, Bolt, in Paris in mid-2018.
