OUR FOCUS CATEGORIES
In the application for Batch 11, our partners are looking for innovations in Electromobility, Autonomous Enablers, Connectivity & Connected Solutions, Sustainability, and Smart Transport.
Application is open between 8 February and 20 March.
FOCUS AREAS FOR BATCH 11
ELECTROMOBILITY
Transitioning to electric vehicles brings a wide spectrum of new opportunities. We are looking for new services enabled by electric vehicles, mature or emergent solutions for EV control, battery cell technology, energy storage, or grid services.
AUTONOMOUS ENABLERS
We want to make mobility safer. Therefore, we are interested in solutions that can accelerate our expansion of the autonomous vehicles’ ODD, both from a software and hardware perspective. This includes better sensing and more efficient computing, driver monitoring systems, faster and more efficient safety validation and verification, more accurate localization and mapping, and more.
CONNECTIVITY & CONNECTED SERVICES
We are looking for connectivity solutions in the intersection of onboard software/sensors and edge- or backend communication, for instance, cellular network insights, edge computing, quantum technology, and data analytics. We are also interested in connected services for vehicles and systems, for example, connected car ecosystems, supply chain visibility, connected collective perception, V2X and IoT platforms and other connected services and new business models for excellent connected user experiences.
SUSTAINABILITY
We are searching for sustainable solutions in a wide range of areas throughout the existing or future value chain – from platform solutions for climate neutrality, supply chain traceability, tracking and reduction of emissions and pollution, and resource efficiency. We are also interested in sustainable materials, circular methodologies and applications, solutions for increased modularity, as well as platforms for social sustainability, digital inclusion, and human rights compliance
SMART TRANSPORT
The future of transport is increasingly connected, safe, and secure. It is part of a growing interconnected ecosystem looking at the needs of society, individuals, goods, and parcels. Future transport addresses issues in transportation hubs and hotspots, providing sustainable transport solutions while addressing driver shortages.
We are looking for demand-responsive transportation solutions that are flexible and convenient, ways of combining the transport of people and goods, transport hub optimization, last-mile solutions, and multi-modal transport systems consisting of a chain of different kinds of vehicles and vessels.
