Do you struggle with car traffic or just getting around in the inner city?


Ixoriguè is made up of farmers, technologists and economists who joined efforts to solve what we believe are the 3 key challenges farmers have: limited profitability, loss of time due to manual tasks and poor traceability of livestock data.
Coming from Scandinavia we have seen the shift towards new mobility solutions. That’s why we created CityQ.


We have created a solution comprising of Hardware (collar sensor) and Software (farmer platform) to enable farmers to digitize their cattle. Cows location and activity data are collected, uploaded using NB-IOT and LoRaWAN networks (ideal for rural areas with poor or no network at all) to the server and processed to detect key behaviours or specific situations, such as illness, loss, death, heat, pregnancy or birth.
We aim to offer the CityQ combining the advantages of both an ebike and a micro car: While it is weather protected and can offer car-like comfort, users can drive it door-to-door and like with a bike we think you will find plenty more options to park your CityQ. We believe it is ideal for personal transport and last-mile deliveries.


What started as a research and development project with Aragon Government in 2015, has turned into a sophisticated solution that will be ready for mass commercialization before the end of 2021. This comes after a 2020 pilot in which 500 cows were successfully tracked. Farmers from Spain & other countries in Europe and Latin America are registering their interest to access the product when we formally launch.
For the future we plan to offer the CityQ with built-in capabilities for rental and sharing, including an IT platform (supplied by a 3rd party) that can diagnose the ebike remotely, and push new functionalities via the web, similar to a Smart Phone or a Tesla.


We've also had great national and local media coverage, highlighting Ixorigue's innovative solution, having already been cited as one of the Top 20 Agritech startups in Spain in 2021. Raising now to be ready for our commercial launch, increasing our marketing budget and optimize the solution for international expansion.
The ebike market is growing fast post-Covid, with cargo and family eBikes estimated to reach 1-2m units in annual sales in Europe by 2030.

Idea

Do you struggle with car traffic or just getting around in the inner city?

Coming from Scandinavia we have seen the shift towards new mobility solutions. That’s why we created CityQ.

We aim to offer the CityQ combining the advantages of both an ebike and a micro car: While it is weather protected and can offer car-like comfort, users can drive it door-to-door and like with a bike we think you will find plenty more options to park your CityQ. We believe it is ideal for personal transport and last-mile deliveries.

For the future we plan to offer the CityQ with built-in capabilities for rental and sharing, including an IT platform (supplied by a 3rd party) that can diagnose the ebike remotely, and push new functionalities via the web, similar to a Smart Phone or a Tesla.

The ebike market is growing fast post-Covid, with cargo and family eBikes estimated to reach 1-2m units in annual sales in Europe by 2030.

We have 100 partially paid pre orders, plus 10 units currently under construction to be delivered to a pilot customer.

We’ve received 2 green-tech grants and signed partnership with an EV car sharing platform and an EV OEM with the ambition of becoming the Nordic market leader in green mobility.

We want to raise €200k to deliver part of our first orders and further develop our tech platform.
