Within EIT Urban Mobility, cities are driving force and enabler of faster adoption of innovation.
RAPTOR, an agile innovation sub-project, is compatible with and complements our traditional larger scale projects funded in the Business Plan. Moreover, the internal competition in RAPTOR both promotes the wider urban mobility agenda and draws cutting edge innovators/ SMEs into our community. With the new edition of the RAPTOR programme in 2023, EIT Urban Mobility will select up to 12 Applicants from across Europe to develop solutions to niche mobility challenges.
EIT UM look forward to seeing exactly what our cities, partners, start-ups & SMEs can achieve under this successful agile innovation set-up.
