The Hessen Mobility cluster – the network for the Hessian mobility industry
Mobility and transport are the foundation of open societies, high-performing economies, and—of course—our everyday lives. Hesse lies at the heart of Europe—serving as both a hub and a real-world laboratory. In the Gateway Gardens business district, the Hesse Mobility cluster is working on the mobility of tomorrow.
The cluster’s work focuses on our pioneering themes for mobility: These include, firstly, mobility in urban and rural areas—with autonomous on-demand services, networked mobility hubs, and solutions for “smart regions”—and secondly, the establishment of intelligent transport systems that aim to integrate all modes of transport through data, vehicle-to-everything communication, and the use of AI. Furthermore, the cluster examines Hesse as a mobility hub, a constantly evolving landscape—with new concepts for the automotive and public transport sectors, from the Rhine-Main region to Northern Hesse.
The cluster sees itself as a platform for exchange, testing, and implementation. Together with business, science, society and the public sector, solutions are created that actually work in everyday life – and show how mobility can be further developed in concrete terms.
The next event in the Hessen Mobility cluster
The cluster’s activities
- Continuous evaluation of current research findings, technological innovations, and social aspects of mobility for networking activities and knowledge transfer within the cluster and with its partners
- Organization of expert conferences, innovative workshops, cluster meetings, film evenings related to mobility, as well as networking events for knowledge transfer and the development of project ideas and collaborations; regular exchanges on innovative modes of transport and future labs
- Organization of trade fair participations (including at EUROBIKE, the Hessian Mobility Congress, or UITP in Hamburg) that enhance the presence and visibility of cluster members and position Hesse as one of the key hubs for passenger and data transport at the national and European level
- Cooperation with numerous partners from academia, industry, politics, and civil society to strengthen awareness of the opportunities and challenges of future mobility, increase acceptance of innovations, raise attention to academic mobility research, and create opportunities for stakeholders in the mobility sector
- Platform for municipalities and districts to exchange forward-looking mobility and transport projects, as well as a facilitator of know-how and initiator of real-world labs and on-site testing of new technologies
- Continuous further development of the Mobility Trend Roadmap, highlighting the latest trends and developments in the mobility sector and the energy industry
