Action and Impact Group (AIG) Sustainable City Logistics Thematic Event

Join the EIT Urban Mobility Action and Impact Group (AIG) in the next thematic event focusing on Sustainable City Logistics. During the event, participants will hear about new external funding opportunities and will be updated on the consortium building process already underway in the thematic area. The AIGs are very much growing, and this is an opportunity for those organisations new to EIT Urban Mobility as well as our established network of partners.

New funding opportunities are coming, and winning consortia take time to build. This event is aiming to help innovators connect and form consortia with universities and industry leaders. EIT Urban Mobility is looking forward and aims to be the leading organisation for European Innovation in the area of Urban Mobility.
