Who we are
Future Mobility catalyzes research and innovation collaboration within sustainable mobility between Sweden and the United States, with a focus on California.
With dedicated resources in both countries, the Future Mobility initiative aspires to lower the thresholds to collaboration. We offer three types of support to actors in Sweden or in the United States interested in collaborations within sustainable mobility:
Inspiration and knowledge related to collaborations between Sweden – the United States
Matchmaking to help you identify relevant innovation partners
Guidance towards potential funding sources.
If you have a collaborative idea but lack the resources to develop it, we can assist you in finding funding. We can propose relevant funding schemes in both countries, and we are happy to support you in the development of an attractive project proposal.
Organization
Future Mobility is managed by Lindholmen Science Park and funded from 2022 to 2025 by the Swedish Innovation Agency, Vinnova. The Swedish Energy Agency supports with co-funding of bilateral projects during 2025.
Purpose and goals
The purpose of Future Mobility is to contribute to sustainable mobility by making the research and innovation (R&I) network between Sweden and the United States denser. It means among others:
- A higher number of, larger and/or more efficient research and innovation collaborations with a long-term potential
- Increased knowledge exchange.
In line with this, the overarching goal is to speed up the development towards sustainable mobility. Sustainable mobility refers to activities that enable the movement of people and goods that are efficient, healthy and climate-neutral, and accessible to all.
