MBA Business Development Intern - Fall 2021

White Fox Scooters is the first docked electric scooter solution for walkable cities and micro-communities. Our docks have been initially deployed and hosted through partnerships with local governments as well as local businesses such as hotels, parking garages, and apartment buildings. We’re taking the electric scooter sharing model to the streets of New York and New Jersey (as well as all other walkable cities) since we truly believe it is the most fun and efficient way to get around. We’ve already set up exclusive partnerships with select locations that will be giving us space for our docks. We disrupt the electric scooter sharing industry in a key way: we place a strong emphasis on public safety. It is dangerous to pedestrians for scooters to obstruct the sidewalks. Our docks keep the scooters out of the path of pedestrians, and allow us to share helmets with our riders. The company is led by our founder, Sidd Saxena, who has had prior experience in technology investment banking, ran multiple profitable businesses, and leads the YPO YNG Initiative in New York City. We are based in the Voyager HQ Incubator Program in New York City.

Interns at White Fox Scooters will have the opportunity to make an impact in a way they never have before. Because of our small team, you will be able to interact and share ideas with all members, ask for feedback and develop yourself as much as you develop the organization.

Business Development interns are responsible for building new, and maintaining existing, White Fox’s professional relationships. You will be our point of contact for our potential partners, as well as a key figure in assisting marketing strategy. BD interns can also assist with investor relations. Interns must be available a minimum of 15 hours/week. Course credit available.
