"We walk the talk" - TUM lives sustainability
Researching sustainability is not enough - you also have to live it.
On June 12, 2024, the Technical University of Munich set an example with the Sustainability Day a strong signal: The entire TUM community showed how it is actively contributing to a sustainable future with ideas, research and projects.
MCube curated the mobility area and, together with strong partners, presented forward-looking projects in the Mobility Hof Garching. Included:
The 3rd grade of an elementary school explored exciting mobility innovations with Oliver May-Beckmann - and were visibly impressed. A day that not only showed technology, but also visions of the future.
TUM President Prof. Dr. Thomas F. Hofmann visited the DatSim mobility table, which simulates the traffic planning of tomorrow based on real data. In conversation with Markus Mohl, head of Munich's digital twin, it became clear that data-driven decisions are the key to smart mobility.
At the same time, 230 students in the Nico Rosberg Challenge sustainable business models.
🌟 Highlight: ParkBuddys - an innovative system for reducing parking search traffic.
A heartfelt thank you to all those involved for their commitment, their ideas and their curiosity. The TUM Sustainability Day 2024 was more than just an event - it was a living laboratory for change. We look forward to the road ahead - and the innovations that will emerge from it.
