The Drivery is a mobility-focused innovation hub and coworking space based in Berlin, Germany, built around one idea: bringing startups, corporates and experts into the same environment to speed up development in transport and mobility. Founded in 2018, it positions itself as more than a workplace. Its model combines shared office space with an industry-specific network, mentoring and structured collaboration between young companies and established players.
The organisation’s core activity is to support mobility startups as they move from early concepts to market-ready solutions. According to company descriptions, The Drivery offers services such as matchmaking between startups and corporate partners, pilot projects, and support for testing and implementation. It also hosts events and community formats focused on mobility, innovation and urban transport. Its Berlin site is described as a large facility, with more than 10,000 square feet of workspace; other reports refer to a much larger innovation site with prototype-production and small-scale testing capabilities.
The Drivery’s reach is no longer limited to Berlin. Since its launch, it has built an ecosystem of mobility founders and operators with international links, and it expanded to Yokohama, Japan, where it opened “The Drivery Japan” in partnership with the city’s TECH HUB YOKOHAMA. The organisation says its network includes around 1,000 mobility startups, and reports on the company mention global names such as Tier Mobility and Volta Charging among the firms connected to its ecosystem.
The portrait that emerges is of a specialist urban-mobility platform: part coworking operator, part business accelerator, and part testbed for new transport services.
