What do we do?

Our vision is to make Munich the leading city for sustainable and transformative mobility innovations. The focus is particularly on the connection and balance between urban and rural areas - for mobility that strengthens all regions.

VISION

Our mobility innovations are specifically geared towards major societal challenges. With the MCube Cluster, we want to make a sustainable contribution to three central missions in the Munich metropolitan region: improving time, space and air.

MISSION

In the MCube Cluster, a unique network of over 80 players from the Munich region - from science, administration, business and society - combine their expertise to develop sustainable solutions for mobility in metropolitan regions.

NETWORK

Three fields of innovation

Three fields of innovation are developed through concrete projects and solutions for the future of mobility.

ELECTRIFY AND AUTOMATE

Electrification:

Holistic charging infrastructure solutions
Electrification of entire neighborhoods in Munich (including delivery traffic)
Emission-free urban traffic with acoustic improvement
Creating trust/acceptance for electric mobility within society
create

Automation:

Autonomous shuttles for more time-efficient personal transportation
Automated last mile and parking
Automating delivery traffic and logistics
Infrastructure for automation of traffic (control center)
Safety through autonomous driving

DEVELOP MOBILITY OPTIONS

Multimodality:

Radical transformation through demand-centered combination of different modes of transportation
Innovations and experiments in pedestrian and bicycle traffic
Mobility culture: understanding lifestyles, values and everyday practices, jointly developing and testing transformation scenarios
Technical enablers: sharing, digital platforms, Mobility as a Service (MaaS)

Digitization as a megatrend:

Big Data and simulations in researching traffic flows
Development of digital products, framework conditions and services (incl. sharing and platforms)
Reducing the susceptibility of existing systems to failure without building new infrastructure
Networking of data systems
Pilot projects in start-ups (e.g. Flixbus, Fernride, EVUM, Twaice, Artisense, Lilium)
