Delta-Q Technologies (Delta-Q), a ZAPI GROUP company and leading supplier of battery charging solutions, and A&K Robotics (A&K), the autonomous micro mobility company, today announced a strategic partnership to advance sustainable urban mobility initiatives across British Columbia.

The collaboration unites two innovative Vancouver-based tech companies with a shared vision to deliver eco-friendly technology and increase global electrification. A&K is set to deploy its self-driving robot pods across busy airports, metropolitan and highly populated transit areas over the next several years. The fully autonomous, compact pods feature 360° and 3-dimensional sensing systems designed to transform urban mobility, reduce environmental impact and shape the future of transportation and mobility. Delta-Q, an early supporter of autonomous and electrification solutions, will provide chargers for A&K’s autonomous product strategy and global expansion plans.

“We are proud to partner with A&K Robotics to continue making electrification and automation solutions more accessible to communities and markets around the world,” said Sarah MacKinnon, CEO of Delta-Q Technologies. “By combining our expertise and leveraging the support of ZAPI GROUP, we aim to power the future of electrification, making urban mobility more sustainable and attainable. We are thrilled to be a part of shaping global, meaningful innovation with a fellow BC company.”

Delta-Q and A&K’s partnership highlight British Columbia’s innovation and commitment to investing in technologies that prioritize environmental stewardship and efficiency. Aligned with British Columbia’s CleanBC Roadmap to 2030, the collaboration advances progress toward that goal. Delta-Q and A&K are pioneering automated solutions to improve passenger experiences and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, showcasing their dedication to creating a sustainable future.

“We see great potential in the future of autonomous equipment and the micro-mobility market, and we know BC is a hub for innovation in this sector,” said Matthew Anderson, CEO and co-founder of A&K Robotics. “Our work advances critical environmental initiatives and improves experiences for individuals with reduced mobility. Collaborating with Delta-Q, a BC company that shares our values and vision, is exciting and a testament to the region’s innovation. The autonomous space is growing, and together we’re poised to drive economic and sustainability improvements for the region and communities worldwide.”

This partnership comes amid a growing global market for autonomous micro mobility platform solutions, driven by the need for efficient, environmentally conscious transportation options. A&K aims to meet this demand with reliable and eco-friendly urban transportation alternatives. The company will unveil fleets of autonomous pods with strategic hub airports in North America and Europe in 2024.
