Public transportation remains an important factor in mobility, and it has to change with the times. Staying flexible and being guided by innovative ideas opens up new opportunities – and that’s what the Mobility Innovation ThinkTank Austria is all about. Our motivation is to put lasting conditions in place for innovations that will play a vital role in shaping the future of mobility.

What do we want to achieve?

Shaping the future of mobility means working on the future of our company. The result must be new concepts that will underpin our development for the long term. That’s why we are looking for ideas we can use to master the challenges of future mobility.

Ideas must focus on creating innovations that do more than just improve efficiency: They must apply new business models to generate income, expand the product portfolio, and transform the company in the long term.

How do we want this to happen?

The first stage involves seizing the initiative, to get to know each other and talk together, to take a critical look at developments, as well as, to see ourselves as others see us.

One step in this direction is the creation of “free zones,” which will give people at all levels and from all backgrounds a platform to propose approaches that regular work activities often simply can’t accommodate. We want to listen to ideas from outside the company, too: Inspiration to follow new paths can also come from discussions with interesting third parties.

Futurologists, inventors and lateral thinkers from other fields – we want to put questions to them all and learn from them.

What’s in it for you?

This initiative will give you the opportunity to talk with an extraordinary range of people who are all drivers of innovation. You will have the chance to build up a network of skills you can use to implement your ideas or get to know other colleagues who need your expertise in connection with a valuable idea.

The Mobility Innovation ThinkTank Austria also opens up the opportunity for you to obtain funding to get your ideas up and running.

Ideas alone have little value. The value of an innovation lies in its practical implementation, in the intellectual work expended on it, and in the labor and money spent on it."

Werner von Siemens
