EIT Urban Mobility is a European initiative that turns innovative ideas into real-world solutions to make cities more liveable, sustainable and connected. It brings together cities, companies, startups, universities and citizens to tackle urban mobility challenges—from congestion and emissions to accessibility and safety.

At its core, EIT Urban Mobility acts as a catalyst: it invests in innovation, supports startups, develops talent and pilots new solutions directly in cities. By bridging the gap between research and market, it ensures that promising concepts don’t stay on paper but are tested, scaled and deployed where they matter most.

In a nutshell, EIT Urban Mobility accelerates the transition to greener, smarter urban transport systems—helping European cities move people, not just vehicles, in a more efficient and human-centred way.
