Students for Future Mobility

The main part of our work are the projects between the meetings and conferences. This is where we support and mentor the people who are by far the most affected by how to move around in a much better way in the future. Our members share human resources and funds in collaboration with supporters all over the world. There are many projects underway under SFFM program and we want you to suggest your ideas. You can read the documentation here on how to participate and apply for funding.

*1 Podcar City Program (PCC)

The Podcar City, is a membership organization, creating an industry program for encouraging creation of Intellectual property and real world implementations for innovative transportation mobility technology. The work is done in collaboration with academics, innovators, policy makers and students. The PCC is based on previous work done in Sweden and USA since 2007. The focus is to propagate knowledge to a broader audience and make a basis for a public mass transportation system using minimal earth resources and renewable energy in a context of workforce creation and skill – In short Mobility for all. 

The main output of the PCC are real world implementations of profitable mobility systems coupled with innovations containing high value of Intellectual property. The existing technology member sponsors  have the option of profiting from the development work by any student team and their findings. The PCC collaborates with member communities in order to support local implementations for pilot projects and developing large scale shared mass transit implementations including funding mechanisms.
