Convincing Global Transport Behemoths To Partner With Your Startup w/ Jessica...TheFamily
Winning your first few enterprise clients as a start up is an incredibly rewarding experience, but it’s also hard work. Convincing big businesses to pick you over incumbents, trust your technology and buy into your business model is not easy - how do you do that?
Jessica shared insights about some crazy challenges she faced during her time at ViaVan, which is on a mission to revolutionise public transport - an industry that’s super slow to evolve and involves non tech-savy players.
ViaVan was founded only in 2017 and is already on track to launch 200 B2B deployments in 2019 - an amazing achievement but the road there has been really intense and bumpy to say the least!
- How did ViaVan win their first client?
- How did they convince large incumbents to partner with them?
- How do they work with larger and often less tech-savy partners?
1) The ECIM project aims to improve city mobility through developing a European cloud marketplace for intelligent mobility services.
2) The project will aggregate public and private mobility services (such as parking and transportation) and migrate them to the cloud to be accessed across borders.
3) Key elements include a cloud platform, service catalog, mobile payment system, and open innovation environment to engage citizens and businesses in creating new services.
This document discusses innovations in global supply chains. It makes three key points:
1) Future supply chains will require an integrated approach across corporate strategy, supply chain strategy, planning and control, IT, organization, and performance measurement. Close collaboration both internally and externally will be important.
2) Planning and control in supply chains will evolve from a focus on operational "sense and respond" to integrating both operational and predictive "predict and prevent" approaches using new technologies like IoT and big data.
3) Social innovation and developing human capital will be crucial as supply chain work evolves and supply chain planning requires more strategic collaboration and alignment of operational and tactical planning approaches.

UITP is a worldwide association of public transport stakeholders including 1300 member companies from 92 countries. Its Combined Mobility Platform promotes integrating public transport with other shared modes like car-sharing, taxis, and cycling. This provides door-to-door mobility solutions and a real alternative to private car ownership. Successful examples demonstrate benefits like increased public transport ridership and optimized services. Areas of cooperation include integrated ticketing, marketing, and infrastructure sharing between public transport and other mobility providers. The conclusion is that partnerships can build livable cities with access for all through combined mobility solutions.
ECIM is a 30-month European project with 14 partners from 5 countries that aims to develop a cloud marketplace for intelligent mobility services. The marketplace will allow cities and businesses to migrate existing mobility services to the cloud, open those services to innovators to create new applications, and provide a platform to promote smart mobility services across Europe. The ECIM solution will facilitate the easy creation and migration of mobility services, such as public parking and transportation information. It will provide a one-stop shop for smart mobility through a cloud platform, mobile payment system, and open innovation environment.
The system will offer the best possibilities to support lateral structures related with:
IOT (internet of things) , M2M (Machine to Machine) & System of Systems
The document discusses setting up Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) to oversee city bus services through public-private partnerships. It provides the example of Indore, India, where an SPV called Indore City Transport Services Limited was formed by the municipal corporation and development authority to contract private operators to run bus routes. The SPV selected routes, color-coded buses, implemented a smart card ticketing system and GPS tracking to coordinate the unified bus system. Setting up professionally managed SPVs is presented as an effective model for planning and operating integrated city bus networks.
MobiWallet - Curent Status & AchievementsMobiWallet
In this slideshare we present MobiWallet project and the interoperable fare management activities that are being carried out across Europe in 4 pilot.
All the pilots have entered in the deployment phase using different technologies and addressing different multiple transport modes but sharing the same approach, methodology and common vision towards achieving interoperability at pilot level, and, ultimately, at cross border level.
The document discusses Nottingham's workplace parking levy (WPL) scheme, the first of its kind in Europe. The WPL places a modest charge on commuter parking spaces to encourage more sustainable transportation. It has raised £25.3 million over three years to fund transportation improvements like tram expansions. The WPL scheme focuses on ensuring employer compliance through education and support rather than enforcement. It has achieved 100% compliance from liable employers.
Advancing Sustainable User-centric Mobility with Automated Vehicles.
How can we reach a sustainable deployment of fully autonomous vehicles for shared public transportation? what are the economic and technical barriers?
The document discusses a project called MetrX that aims to incentivize the use of public transportation in Paris. MetrX will be an app with a rewards system for public transportation users in Ile-de-France. The app will give points to users based on the distance traveled by public transportation that can be redeemed for discounts on retail items or donated to environmental organizations. The goal is to help Paris achieve its vision of a more car-free society and reduce issues like air pollution, traffic, and related health problems.
This brochure describes the practical experiences of the cities’ introduction and extension of the usage of sharing schemes with traditional bicycles, electric bicycles as well as with electric and hybrid cars. Numerous advantages of sharing schemes are pointed out in the brochure. Besides saving money for the individual and improving the environment, the concept paves the way for multi-modal use of transport systems since the vehicle-sharing concept excels at high flexibility due to the independency of timetables and predetermined routes. Automated sharing systems can reliably be in operation year-round, day and night. Furthermore, the user freely chooses the fastest route to his destination not being bound to bus or train lines. In other words, a vehicle-sharing system adds customer value to the whole transport chain.
DYN@MO (2012-2016) is part of the CIVITAS Initiative, supporting cities to introduce ambitious transport measures and policies towards sustainable urban mobility.
At Finpro's ITS and MaaS seminar on May 4, Martyn Briggs from Frost & Sullivan discussed the converging trends that are leading to shift away from private cars, the new mobility business models that are becoming well established, and the potential impacts these services can realise in our cities now and in the future.
(Re)Putting Micromobility at the center of Urban Mobility.pdfVAIMOOSharing
The document discusses promoting micromobility solutions like e-bikes and e-scooters through better integration with public transit. It argues that cooperation between cities, operators, and transit authorities can improve intermodal transportation networks and make micromobility a core part of urban mobility. Examples from Paris, Utrecht, and a new plan in Italy aim to develop safe biking infrastructure, bike sharing options to access transit, and a national cycling network. The goal is efficient, multimodal transportation that encourages micromobility use.
This document discusses European perspectives on urban mobility policy and research from Arno Kerkhof of UITP. It provides an overview of UITP, key aspects of European mobility policy including public transport developments, and UITP's research and innovation initiatives focusing on various transport modes.

2) In its first year, OTN worked to create an INSPIRE-compliant data model for transport networks and expose aggregated and harmonized transport data through virtual service hubs.
3) OTN addresses challenges of disharmonized and scattered data by bringing together spatial, dynamic, and non-spatial data sources and using techniques like metadata catalogues, data visualization tools, and privacy controls.
This document discusses eParticipation and how governments can move from simple consultation to collaboration with citizens through technology. It notes that while the private sector has embraced innovation through "gazelles," the public sector tends to move more slowly like "turtles." The document outlines areas where eParticipation has worked, such as policing, empowering civil servants, and engaging civil society and citizens. It also discusses how the UK has led in these areas and considers whether governments are entering an era of eInnovation or eRevolution through greater collaboration with citizens.
Improving Innovation Through Open Data - Construction Excellence Annual Confe...21cConsultancy_2012
This document discusses how open data can fuel innovation. It provides examples of how governments and businesses are using open data to segment markets, define new products and services, and improve operations. While open data is helping modernize many industries, the construction industry still lags behind in developing an open data ecosystem. The document argues that open data could help the construction industry create healthier buildings, streamline permitting processes, and design happier schools and communities if it embraces open data practices.
This document discusses how crowdsourcing and open data can enhance data collection, policymaking, and monitoring related to population aging. It provides examples of how Scotland has leveraged high-quality linked health data to analyze spending on institutional versus community-based care for those aged 65+, examine costs associated with dementia, and perform cohort-specific analysis. The document argues that governments are increasingly harnessing crowdsourced data and suggests crowdsourcing could also enhance data and policy regarding aging populations.
The Private Sector and Sustainable Development: Friend or Foe? 21cConsultancy_2012
Dr. Julia Glidden discusses the relationship between the private sector and sustainable development. While sustainable development goals focus on people, private sector goals prioritize monetary profits. There is often a conflict between these aims. However, new technologies allowing data collection from citizens and a sharing economy model point to the potential for public-private partnerships to support sustainability through innovation if governments act as a platform and collaborate with citizens and businesses.
The document discusses the concept of smart cities and how data and technology can be used to create smarter, more efficient cities that improve life for citizens. It outlines how smart phones and citizen sensors are creating vast amounts of data that can be used by cities to gain insights and power applications. When combined with open data platforms, this data has the potential to drive innovation and new services that benefit both public and private sectors as well as citizens, with examples given around transportation, emergency response, and workspaces. The document concludes by advocating that cities develop innovation roadmaps to fully realize this potential by opening and linking data, engaging communities, and supporting new ideas and cross-border collaboration.

It addresses challenges such as bridging the gap between the public and private sectors. The goal is to support entrepreneurs through open data, apps, and co-creation with the public sector. The document considers where eParticipation currently stands and where it may be going, and what this could mean for both traditional public sector organizations and new private sector startups.
Digital Makes the World Personal: A Roadmap for 21st Century Innovation21cConsultancy_2012
The document outlines a roadmap for governments to become innovation platforms by opening up data and engaging communities to build applications. It recommends that cities start by opening transportation data and creating template apps to demonstrate how open data can power innovation. Next, cities should integrate these apps into a full service and validate the city as an open platform. Finally, the roadmap suggests scaling the open platform model across Europe by establishing interconnected hubs of georeferenced open data and apps. The goal is to unleash limitless possibilities for personalizing government services through open data and community collaboration.
This document outlines a roadmap for 21st century innovation in government. It proposes that governments act as innovation platforms by opening up public data and creating template apps to catalyze new ideas from citizens. The roadmap involves three steps: 1) preparing governments by releasing open data and apps, 2) validating this approach through an integrated demonstration project, and 3) scaling the model across Europe through networked innovation hubs. The conclusion encourages governments to start their own roadmaps by using open data and community engagement to support innovation in important policy areas and on a cross-border level.
This document discusses how "turtles" or reluctant organizations that resist change can be disrupted by "gazelles" or innovative startups, and outlines lessons for public sector organizations to promote openness, interoperability, and their platforms as innovation platforms to better connect and support innovative solutions. The document was written by Dr. Julia Glidden of 21c Consultancy in June 2013 and provides an overview of disruptive innovation as well as examples of creating open data apps and enabling smart city services through open data and moving from closed to open systems and architectures.
The document discusses how cities can become "smart" by creating open application programming interfaces, partnerships, and innovation platforms to enable new smart city services and applications through the reuse of open data. It recommends that cities think big but start small, prioritize openness and interoperability in procurement and architecture, promote themselves as innovation platforms, and connect innovation initiatives to help kick off a smart city.

10. ECIMs Future
Proof of Concept in Birmingham UK to demonstrate:
• Ease of integrating and publishing 3rd party services and data
• Use of single sign-on functionality and common API for payment
• Use of HTML5 mobile app across Europe
I’m in charge of a local public company, Issy Média, which serves as a task force (from technology watch to project management) for implementing the city’s ICT strategy and as co-ordinator of all ICT initiatives launched by the city.
Let’s me tell you a few words about my City, Issy-les-Moulineaux, a medium-sized town situated in the suburbs of Paris.
During the last years, Issy has successfully developed and implemented a proactive strategy of innovation to build a local Information Society which is open to all.
In this framework, Issy Média represents Issy-les-Moulineaux in digital innovation projects, including the ones funded by the European Commission.
ECIM is one of this projects and I’m here to present you its objectives, recent results and future steps.
The ubiquity of smart phones and social media combined with the rapid advance of ever cheaper and easier to use technologies has unleashed a range of innovative new applications and services that can make our cities smarter and better places to live and work......
Moreover, a lot of new ways of moving around a City are coming out:
Paying parking by mobile
Bike sharing
Electric cars
The revolution on public transports and Taxis
And this worsening an old and familiar problem: how to get from A to B as quickly as possible? Today, people increasingly depend on smartphones to navigate the complexities of city transport systems. While huge numbers of sophisticated apps exist to help with this task, most deal with only one mode of transport, and each requires a time-consuming registration process.All these highly specialised services leave travellers feeling frustrated; constantly switching from one app to the next. Wouldn’t it be better if there were one service that exposed all those apps through a single screen, and helped creative solutions stand out from the crowd? Well, soon there will be…
But how dealing with this?
ECIM wants to offer a solution to this through…
A single platform and application offering various services. ECIM platform has been designed with a native HTML5 user interface to make access via a smart device easy regardless of OS. In addition to the HTML5 interface, the team are currently developing extensions for native OS on Android and iOS.
In fact, users just need to register on the marketplace and they can then access various services:
PARKING
Parking API allows to discover and use parking services in a particular city. Through this API users can vie view a list of parking spaces, their details and availability, calculate a parking price, start, stop and extend a parking session, to name just a few.
SINGLE SIGN-ON
Single sign-on API makes everything accessible with just one app, including payment transactions. Users will only need to enter one name and password in order to be able to access multiple applications.
PAYMENT
Payment API allows to easily request payment authorisation, payment transaction, a list of user’s transactions, user’s credit card registration and validation, as well as information on payment status.
The ECIM platform was developed according to a layered architecture designed to deliver a flexible, modular system that can be updated to reflect the latest technologies and functionalities of the different services aggregated upon it.
The platform is intended to be directed to various type of users:
Cities and Local Authorities, making possible to have various services on a single app and providing data to populate the application and give a better service to citizens and local companies
SMEs and Start-ups as service providers including their payment APIs to provide a new service for final users
Citizens as final users using the platform in its features, such as parking payments or route planner modules
Cross-border interoperability of services tested in three pilots: Barcelona, Brussels and Issy.
Aggregation and migration of multiple public and private services to the cloud
Off-street parking
On-street parking
Mobile payment
Public transportation
STORK eID
Combining with new services
Issue of parking permit using eID
Parking locator
Parking crowdsourcing
The application has now passed its first two cycles of testing in Issy-les-Moulineaux and Brussels, also with real life testings (in Barcelona it was done a testing simulation, related to events agenda of the City).
It will now start a continuous testing phase in its 3 pilots, Brussels, Barcelona and Issy, to move to the final stage of the testing: a proof of concept in Birmingham that will be explained better later in this presentation.
As I’m personally responsible of the pilot of Issy-les-Moulineaux, I would like to explain in a few words our ongoing experience on this application.
First, we need to take into consideration Issy background on transports.
As Issy-les-Moulineaux is part of Paris Area, it is touched by this area situation. The number of trips by public transport increased by 20% between 2001 and 2011, the Paris region has never had a corked so pronounced. According to a study released today by the provider of information on road traffic V-Traffic, we reveal exclusively, the number of kilometers of traffic jams increased by 26% in four years (2010 to 2013) rush hours.
Lately, a lot of new ways of moving around a City are coming out:
Paying parking by mobile
Bike sharing
Electric cars
The revolution on public transports and Taxis
By the way, of course, the situation of the works on Grand Paris Express (up to 2030) will create a big congestion in the area and it will request to find new and innovative solutions.
And applications like ECIM represent an excellent concept to tackle these challenges.
ECIM can provide good solutions for the City as it can help to develop a «Smart Mobility» application portal including public transport, multimodal, augmented reality, search for parking spots – not just on the road - and mobile parking payments solutions.
Additionally, an « all in one » application like this would probably let the City attracting many service providers offering new services and this would boost the offer for citizens.
Birmingham Proof of Concept Scenario (Cycle 4 will run from January – March 2016)
To prove replicability and scalability of ECIM solution the following 3 elements need to be tested:
1. Publishing new services on the ECIM platform (Service Providers)
2. Combining these with existing ECIM services to create new applications (Developers)
3. Testing new services with end-users to evaluate the extent to which the ECIM solution is able to deliver user-friendly and context-tailored apps to EU citizens, who are also willing to adopt them (Citizens)
By covering these 3 elements Birmingham PoC will demonstrate the validity of ECIM solutions and approach.
In a typical scenario a motorist will be able to find a parking space near the city centre, get there using the fastest route, pay for the parking session, then using ECIM trip planner discover the fastest way of getting to the city centre on public transport, top-up his account and pay for the bus journey and finally get back to the car from the city centre by bike – all using just one ECIM app.
