Rapid environmental changes are impacting our cities and require rapid and innovative actions. The Rapid Applications for Transport (RAPTOR) Programme seeks to do just this via its agile competition.
The RAPTOR competition matches European cities facing urban mobility challenges with start-ups with innovative mobility solutions. While each of the city challenges and proposed solutions are different, the common theme woven throughout is the urgency of the transition to more sustainable transport.
The 2023 RAPTOR competition has ended, but for the 2024 competition, EIT is in the process of selecting the cities that will be included in this competition. In order to be included as a city in the 2024 RAPTOR competition, you can apply to the EIT with an assessment of the challenges you have faced in your city where a solution is essentially required.
