“We are incredibly excited to team with Gira on this initiative which increases access to clean transportation alternatives in Lisbon and we thank the city for their collaboration,” said Brian Buccella, Senior Vice President, Government Partnerships and Consumer Products at Bird. “Portugal is fast becoming a leader in Europe for its commitment to environmentally friendly transportation and we are dedicated to remaining their leading operating partner by expanding our services and bringing to communities throughout the country our latest and most innovative technology.”
