California-based traffic tech company establishes presence in Sweden – the result of a Future Mobility-funded collaboration
A research collaboration between Linköping University, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and the California-based company Xtelligent has led to both technical breakthroughs and long-term impact – and now, Xtelligent is establishing operations in Sweden. The project, supported by Future Mobility, demonstrates the power of international collaboration to tackle the mobility challenges of the future.
With support from Future Mobility, the Swedish-American project Dashboards for Decision Support in Highway Congestion Management has developed a new digital planning tool to help Swedish authorities and municipalities make more informed decisions about traffic management. The technology, based on previous research from Linköping University and KTH combined with Xtelligent’s system for dynamic network control has now been validated in a Swedish context.
“Working with Xtelligent has given us access to cutting-edge expertise in traffic management and opened new doors for our research,” says Clas Rydergren, project lead for the innovation project, Linköping University.
The project has not only resulted in a technical tool – it has also triggered Xtelligent preparing to establish a company in Sweden. The aim is to facilitate future collaboration and strengthen its presence in the European market.
“Sweden has a strong culture of innovation and collaboration, which aligns perfectly with how we work – in ecosystems alongside public agencies, industry partners, and researchers. Over the past two years, we’ve had the opportunity to work with Swedish partners, and it’s proven to be something very real – not just a theoretical ambition. We truly value that aspect of Sweden,”
says Mike Lim, cofounder of Xtelligent.
The project runs through 2025 and is an example of how Future Mobility serves as a catalyst for transatlantic cooperation by supporting innovation partnerships that address electrified, connected, automated, or shared mobility.
