Openness & Fairness

Family Values
Microlino is a true family project: founded by Wim Ouboter, inventor of the Micro Scooter, together with his sons Merlin and Oliver. This close collaboration still shapes the brand today – decisions are not made by anonymous corporations, but by a family that stands behind its products. That is why Microlino is not only about technology, but also about trust, passion, and the ambition to create sustainable mobility for generations to come.
