Scaling Sustainable Shared Mobility Services and Digital Integration for European Cities

transportPilotedTRL 8

Imagine a city where you don't need to own a car because every possible ride—from scooters to shuttles—is linked in one easy app. It's like a digital glue that connects public buses with shared electric vehicles to make commuting seamless. The goal is to make getting around town as easy as a single click while cleaning up the air.

The business problem

What needed solving

Cities struggle with traffic congestion and high CO2 emissions because public transport is often disconnected from shared micromobility. There is a lack of viable business models to make these integrated services financially sustainable.

The solution

What was built

A data-driven mobility intelligence platform (AI4BI) and 8 New Mobility Services (NMS) demonstrated through reports on user acceptance and infrastructure adaptations.

Who can put this to work

Urban Transport
any
Target: MaaS (Mobility as a Service) Provider

If you are a MaaS provider dealing with fragmented transport options — this project developed multimodal MaaS solutions that integrate shared mobility with public transport. This allows you to offer a single, unified user experience for passengers.

Software Development
SME
Target: AI Analytics Firm

If you are an AI firm dealing with inefficient urban traffic flow — this project developed a data-driven mobility intelligence platform (AI4BI). This helps you provide cities with tools to monitor and optimize shared mobility based on local needs.

Public Administration
enterprise
Target: Municipal Transport Authority

If you are a city authority dealing with high CO2 emissions and congestion — this project developed NMS business model blueprints. This provides a roadmap to transition from car-centered systems to climate-neutral mobility.

Frequently asked
