VOQA is a start up, building an EV charger for residential and commercial spaces.

We have the luxury as a start up, of being part of ICM Group which has over $1.8 billion in funds under management, and so a bit like a young adult making their first steps in the real world, we can rely on the group for both strategic and logistical support in these early stages. Our product will be ready early 2024 and we are building our go to market plan and capabilities. Our goal, like any young adult, is to operate independently as quickly as possible, and to do this, we need good people.

Our mission is to make EV charging effortless, for everyone. And we intend to do this by respecting the following guiding principles; keep it simple, innovate purposefully, design elegantly and do the right thing, always.
