== History ==
Co-founders John Stanfield and Clément Gires met at Stanford University in 2010 while pursuing master's degrees. Stanfield previously co-founded two small businesses, Perfect Shine and Veggie Wheels. As his master's thesis project for the Joint Program in Design, he and several classmates designed and built a low-speed electric vehicle, which they called the (Weng ) (short for "Where Everyone Needs to Go"). Gires also had previous experience in vehicle design, having helped to build a 1000 mpg car in France. After graduation, Stanfield and Gires worked together to build a second low-speed electric vehicle as part of the (Lemnos Labs ) hardware incubator program in San Francisco. The newer version of the Weng was designed to be shareable and interactive as well as energy efficient. In 2012, the company changed its name from Weng Motors, Inc. to Local Motion, Inc., and switched its focus from designing vehicles to building software and hardware capable of connecting existing vehicles to local transportation networks. In the summer of 2012, the company began targeting fleets on corporate campuses as an initial sales channel, launching pilot networks on several corporate campuses in Silicon Valley.
