Created by MINI.

1956

MINI was started out as a direct response to the fuel shortage caused by Suez Crisis, with the innovative design of a fuel efficient “proper miniature car” taking less space in cities.

2016

MINI founded URBAN-X to support startups who share those values as part of a continued exploration of work that improves urban life.

Our newsletter includes updates from current and past startups, editorial pieces from tech founders and entrepreneurs, invitations to public events and much more.
