EV Charging Infrastructure

EV charging network and infrastructure provider. Boca Raton, FL. Publicly traded (BLNK). Operates Level 2 and DC fast chargers across the US and internationally.

About

Blink Charging is a Boca Raton, Florida-based EV charging network operator publicly traded on the Nasdaq under the ticker BLNK. Founded in 2009, Blink has deployed tens of thousands of Level 2 and DC fast charging stations across the United States, Europe, and the Middle East, operating a hybrid model where it owns some stations outright and manages others for property owners through its host-owned program.\n\nThe company's host-owned model allows commercial property owners — parking garages, hotels, retail centers, and multifamily housing — to purchase Blink-branded charging equipment and have it managed on the Blink network, earning revenue share from drivers. This asset-light approach allows Blink to grow its footprint without the full capital burden of station ownership.\n\nBlink has expanded internationally through acquisitions including SemaConnect in the US and Blue Corner in Europe, broadening its hardware and network capabilities. The company has also pursued contracts with municipalities, government agencies, and fleet operators, including EV charging programs for government vehicle fleets. While smaller than ChargePoint, Blink's diverse go-to-market model and international footprint make it a meaningful player in the public EV charging space.
