Proposals with a total score above 10 out of 15 points will be matched with the startups to select the best 3 pilot projects.

Please propose from the perspective of your city a challenge to be solved by the startups participating in the EIT Urban Mobility ScaleTHENGlobal programme through the implementation of a pilot project. Please bear in mind that you can submit as many challenge as desired by fulfilling multiple times this form. The form will close on the 23th July 2021, end of day.
