At the Innovation Campus 'Future Mobility' KIT and the University of Stuttgart Develop Ideas and Business Models for Future Sustainable Mobility [ Picture: b&b eventtechnik/Gregor König ] Safe and sustainable mobility is one of the big issues of society, ranging from urban commutes to merchant shipping on oceans. To make mobility sustainable in times of urbanization, resource scarcity, and climate change, the University of Stuttgart and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) pool their research competencies in the Innovation Campus "Future Mobility" (ICM) that is funded by the State of Baden-Württemberg with around 10 million euros. Today in Stuttgart, work is started officially in the presence of State Science Minister Theresia Bauer. It is the goal of the ICM to create new, pioneering technologies in the areas of mobility and production. The first two pilot projects, hence, will cover zero-emission drives and additive manufacture, i.e. use of 3D printers not only for high-quality and operational (lightweight) components, but also for components with novel functions. KIT and the University of Stuttgart pool their competencies to think about new forms of mobility, flexible production technologies, and future value networks and study them interdisciplinarily. The ICM addresses the transformation process in the mobility sector.
