    ♟️ We turned a car park into a chess park. When we asked our community how to make cities more people-friendly, we received 81,128 ideas. This one stood out. In Lagos, we joined forces with Chess in Slums Africa [CISA] to transform part of the Ikeja City Mall parking lot into a Chess Park – a place where movement met mindfulness. People who had never played chess before learned their first moves. Others faced off in tournaments. By the end, a once-grey parking space had brought an entire community together. What if every parking space held more than cars? Sometimes, the distance between imagination and impact is just one bold idea. 📸👇 See how it came to life.

    🔴 5 simple rules that could save a life in London traffic: 1. Stop at red lights. 2. Give cyclists space. 3. Don’t block crossings. 4. Ride in the right direction. 5. Look before you open that door. Safety isn’t a feature – it’s at the core of everything we do at Bolt. With e-bikes now rolling out in London, we’re proud to support Transport for London Highway Code campaign, reminding everyone that small actions can make a big difference on the road. Here’s how we’re using smart tech to keep cities safer: 👉 Distance-based pricing for more considerate riding. 👉 AI-powered parking detection to keep pavements clear. 👉 In-app tips tailored to local rules and infrastructure. Because safer cities only happen when we all work together – from public authorities, operators, and riders alike.

    Hi! I’m Silja, and I’m a mum of four. 🙋♀️ So, what’s the math of being a working mum in tech? I’m a data person, so I keep seeing numbers everywhere. Dentist visit once a year? Multiply by four. Regular doctor checkup? Multiply by four. A “quick” 3 PM school concert? Multiply by four. And add travel time. Then there are the fun ones: Winter boots? €50 × 4. Hats, gloves, or swimsuits? Always multiply by four – plus a few spares, because someone will forget theirs. Hobbies? €60 × 8 if everyone wants two. At one point, I even started keeping an Excel sheet with shoe types and sizes, because I had lost track of what we have and made a few unnecessary purchases. Not sure I should share this, but the list had 100+ items. It’s funny, but behind all this math lies something I’m deeply grateful for: that I can make it work. Working in tech has given me something many parents in other fields can’t always count on – flexibility. I can be there for the Christmas concert and still lead my projects with impact. At Bolt, no one blinks when I say, “I’ll be out for my kid’s school play.” Leaders like Ali and Stanislav, who’ve managed me over the years, have always supported me fully in that. They live in a culture that trusts people to deliver – not to sit at a desk from nine to five. And I do need to mention I’m not doing it alone. My husband Mikk does his fair share (and often even more). Still, there are more things to be multiplied by four, so both of us are needed. So here’s my small message to every mum (or dad) who wonders if a career in tech is compatible with family life: It absolutely can be. (P.S. If you ever need to practice mental arithmetic, I highly recommend having four kids. 😄) 👉 Curious how it really works behind the scenes? Ask me anything about being a working mum in tech – right here under this post! 👇👀 *** If you want to grow your career while still rocking it as a parent, we’re hiring: careers.bolt.eu

    Girls took over Bolt today in celebration of International Girls’ Day! 👸 We hosted 10 high school and vocational school students for a full day at our Tallinn HQ – shadowing our female leaders, learning about career journeys, and exploring what it’s like to work at one of Europe’s fastest-growing tech companies. The day was packed with insights – but also, plenty of fun! 😉 They joined presentations by Director of Product Jüri Laur, Creative Specialist Sabine Krais (who started as an intern!), and Regional People Partner Marja Laanep, followed by HQ tour, a networking lunch, and real team shadowing. A huge thank-you to JA Eesti for the initiative and to the next generation of changemakers who brought such fresh energy that the whole office felt it! ⚡️ 📸 Take a look at the gallery below to see some of the highlights from the day! #internationalgirlsday #womenintech #bolt
