Despite the rapid growth of shared micromobility as an urban transport mode, its role in enhancing sustainable urban mobility remains contested, particularly concerning its competition with public transport and the congestion it causes in public space. This paper explores the integration of shared electric micromobility (e-scooters and e-bikes) with public transport systems to strengthen its role as a solution for the first/last mile. Through a thematic analysis of 23 semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders - including micromobility operators, public transport authorities, and city governments – we develop a framework for integrating shared electric micromobility with guiding principles and integration pillars. By providing a supply-side perspective, this article expands the predominantly user-centric literature, offering practical guidelines for stakeholders to build a multimodal urban transport network that combines the strengths of shared micromobility and public transport. We bridge academic research and implementation to uncover new paths for empirical research in the field of shared micromobility.
