HOW WE DO IT

MobilityXlab is looking for the world’s best startups to join us in our quest of bringing future mobility closer.

How we do it - Two people shaking hands

MobilityXlab offers a 6-month innovation program, with two “batches” per year. The selected startups go on a journey with MobilityXlab who will facilitate all meetings and checkpoints. From the start of the program, you will get an assigned partner lead, an internal champion responsible for the continuous progress of your collaboration. 

 

PROGRAM STRUCTURE

With a minimum six-month duration, the program is divided into 3 stages

DISCOVER

This is where you as a startup together with the partner company set the scope, and agree on NDA and budget for the POC. 

VALIDATE

The second phase is the Validation phase, during which you conduct the POC to demonstrate the feasibility of your solution. Depending on the scope, the second phase can take several months.

ACCELERATE

The longer-term goal for our program is for startups to accelerate together with our partner companies. After 6 months, a startup can get a 6-month extension, or become Alumni and remain a member of MobilityXlab’s community for the future.
