Want to hack real-world hardware and prototype smart logistics systems? Want to see your work leave the desk and enter the streets of urban logistics? Then you’re in the right place! 🛠✨

About bace

We’re rethinking urban logistics from the ground up with our smart, modular hub systems that make last-mile delivery greener, simpler, and smarter. After proving our concept with real-world deployments, we’re scaling—and we need your installation skills to make that happen.

Here’s a snapshot of our recent milestones:

✅ €3M+ funding secured & backed by strategic investors (including key players from retail & logistics)

🤝 Successfully tested our first hub in front of the BVB Stadium over 10 months in 23/24

🚀 Market launch in the beginning of Q3 2025 with major partners

🔗 Exclusive partnership with Pickshare to launch One Delivery - a game-changer in bundled last-mile deliveries

🏙️ Real-world impact because our hubs aren’t just empty boxes - they revolutionize last-mile logistics with a seamless user experience, consolidating deliveries to reduce traffic, cut emissions, and create greener, more livable cities.

This is your chance to be part of a startup that’s moving fast, scaling smart, and transforming urban logistics from the ground up. Join us! 🚀
