MUF #12 Scaling Mountains & Charging Cities: Julien Belliato’s Mission to Electrify Europe

What does it take to raise over €1 billion and build 3,200 EV charge points across nine countries in just four years—while staying grounded and purpose-driven?

In this episode of Mork Unfiltered, I sit down with Julien Belliato, co-founder and Deputy CEO of Electra, one of Europe’s most ambitious EV charging startups. Julien is not your typical tech founder. He’s an engineer, systems thinker, and sustainability warrior who’s driven by impact, European energy sovereignty, and the daily adventure of building something that matters.

We talk about:

• The messy middle of startup life—the setbacks, fears, and rituals that keep you centered
• Why charging in urban areas is the real unlock for mass EV adoption
• How design, speed, and user experience differentiate Electra from the giants
• Julien’s candid take on the myths and realities of clean tech and EV adoption

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to build a purpose-driven company at massive scale—or you just love a good story of grit, impact, and vision—this episode is for you.
