Adam Rossetto, Founder and Principal of Smart Mobility Advisory

Adam Rossetto

Founder and Principal

Adam has spent his career building and running shared e-scooter and e-bike services in Australia. He knows the work from the warehouse floor to the minister's office.

Adam was part of the founding team that launched Beam in Australia and New Zealand, leading brand and marketing, then business development. At Ario he built the Australian and New Zealand business from zero: 5,000 vehicles across multiple cities, world-first safety technology, and a multimillion-dollar operation built, scaled and exited within two years.

He also conceived and ran Australia's first private-hub e-mobility program, now past 100,000 trips, with hotel partners including Marriott International, Hilton Worldwide, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Accor Group and IHG, among others.

Today, through Smart Mobility Advisory, he consults for operators, governments and businesses on smart mobility programs, policy, safety and market entry. As a 2026 Churchill Fellow he is studying shared mobility safety across the US, the UK and Europe, and what he learns feeds straight into the safety programs we design for clients.

He founded Smart Modern Ventures, our parent company, to bring that experience to the next generation of founders: find the opening, make the case, and build something that lasts.
