Knapp Mobility Partners, Llc

Knapp Mobility Partners is a specialized operations consultancy dedicated to the "hard" side of mobility. We bridge the gap between "Big Auto" discipline and "Venture" speed, helping investors and founders fix the operational bottlenecks that kill growth. We don't just advise; we execute. Led by William Knapp (ex-CEO Ford Drive, Regional GM Uber, COO Superpedestrian, COO and CPO car2go), we provide fractional executive leadership to solve complex challenges in scaling, logistics, and hardware integration. Our Practice Areas- Rapid Scale-Up: transitioning startups from "hero-based" firefighting to systematic, multi-market growth- Asset-Heavy Turnarounds: Restructuring fleet operations to fix unit economics and stop cash bleed in logistics-heavy environments- Corporate Venture Launchpad: Acting as Interim Executive to launch, validate, and pilot new business models inside large enterprises- Hardware-Software Integration: Aligning product roadmaps with physical operational realities to increase velocity and reduce defects- North American Market Entry: Establishing the legal, operational, and product framework for global companies entering the US market- Restructuring & Exits: Managing orderly wind-downs and asset dispositions with fiduciary discipline. Who We Serve- VC & Private Equity: Operating partners needing to stabilize portfolio companies- Mid-Stage Founders: CEOs needing a seasoned COO/Operator to handle the "messy middle" of scaling- Global OEMs: Enterprises seeking agile leadership for innovation units or regional expansion.
