The chief executive of the Swedish company behind the Voi e-scooters currently being trialled in the Bristol region is to visit the UK to meet the region's Metro Mayor.
Last week, Dan Norris threatened to ban the company from operating in the area unless it severs ties to Russia. The threats came following a report in the Swedish press.
It has emerged that one of the operator’s major shareholders has close links to Russia, which has been condemned for invading Ukraine. Voi has since said it was re-evaluating all its partners.
