Best practices / case studies of cooperation

AD testtrack

  • AWARD is paving the way for the roll-out of driverless transportation, whatever the weather conditions are. It will deploy safe and efficient connected and automated heavy-duty vehicles in real-life logistics operations.

Startup collaboration

  • (Traditional) companies are often faced with the problem or challenge of putting their analog or established business models and products on the "digital transformation test bench" in the shortest possible time in order to rethink them and benefit from current technological and visionary opportunities from the "world of digitization" in order to derive new business models, services or products. One possible approach is the implementation of a Multi-Corporate Innovation (MCI) Challenge: i.e. through a controlled "open innovation" approach, the company comes up with completely new - never thought of before - and valid business cases in the shortest possible time.
