Call for Strategic Partners – Consortium Building for the BICO Project (EIT Urban Mobility Strategic Innovation)

Dipl.-Ing. Gabor Andras Varga

Founder & President at Sustainnovation Hub Cluster

Salem, Germany

About

BICO is designed to combine a next-generation digital cycling platform with Living Mobility Labs, implemented through real-world city pilots, behavioural innovation and community activation across Europe.

As part of the consortium-building and co-creation phase, we are now inviting additional strategic partners to join the project preparation and shape its final scope, pilots and implementation model.

We are looking for:

Cities & metropolitan authorities

interested in becoming Pilot or Strategic Living Mobility Lab Cities, contributing to testing data-driven cycling adoption, citizen engagement and city dashboards.

Mobility Labs, Living Labs & innovation organisations

with expertise in behavioural innovation, co-creation, citizen engagement, impact measurement or urban experimentation.

Industry & lifestyle partners (cycling, mobility, outdoor, health)

who want to go beyond sponsorship and act as strategic partners in a scalable, city-integrated European platform (e.g. pilots, co-development, ESG & health impact, data-driven insights).

Why engage at this stage?

  • Opportunity to co-shape the project concept and pilots

  • Strong alignment with EIT Urban Mobility priorities

  • European visibility and replication potential

  • Licence-ready Living Mobility Lab model for cities

  • Clear commercialisation and scale-up logic

  • Not a campaign – a long-term platform

The planned project integrates:

  • AI-supported cycling routing & 3D visualisation

  • City dashboards with aggregated, GDPR-compliant data

  • Behavioural innovation & citizen activation

  • A Europe-wide Living Mobility Lab framework

Interested in joining the consortium-building phase or exploring a role?

Comment below or send a direct message – we are happy to share the current pitch deck and discuss potential contributions.

Let’s build together the next generation of active, healthy and community-driven urban mobility in Europe.
