A participatory approach to invent the future of mobility CCM: An open purpose driven ecosystem with an Action driven approach Eveline Wandl-Vogt Ars Electronica Research Institute “knowledge for humanity” Austrian Academy of Sciences In spring 2019, various people from the mobility sector started to build a free and open mobility community. It represents a multistakeholder core of an emerging mobility ecosystem, an open system consisting of more than 80 organizations from industry, start-ups, science, civil society and many other committed mobility thinkers from DACH countries. A so-called orchestrator group is directing the processes. They are not determining the rules and processes in the system. The members of the group come from stakeholder organizations. Nevertheless, a company or organization - as in our ecosystem www.mobility.community - has to give the go-ahead for the ecosystem and the formation of an orchestrator group: In our case it was the Austrian Federal Railway with its Open Innovation Team. The initiating organisation has a greater effort, for example for the coordination by its own employees. In the same way, the initiator has also increased responsibility due to the greater scope for influencing the further development of the ecosystem. That is why we have set up the orchestrator group broadly, with mobility people from startups, EPUs, universities and other companies. And the state? Getting politicians and administrators involved is essential! And we did this using the example of the car-free city center of vienna. Now we have to focus on mobility customers! So that we don't become an introverted bubble of ideas , formerly “ivory tower”.

This rationale results in five crucial areas: 1. Physical space & Infrastructure 2. Focus on (societal) needs & Inclusive innovation 3. Cost & Need for mobility 4. Sustainability & Future protection 5. as well as the mobility ecosystem. The ‘Mobility Manifesto’ as a backbone 3 Learning Journeys during COVID-19 lockdown in AT 1) Organization: a) ) Onboarding : New Orchestrators, new community members b) Virtualization: new tools: Menti, Miro, Zoom Breakout groups mentored by two orchestrators each and one or two technical facilitators for the tools 2) Content: a) Detecting trends and associations b) Panel discussion with key actors c) Inspire and trigger future scenarios d) starting new collaborations and building networks CC-By 4.0 Chiara Eccher CC-By 4.0 Chiara Eccher CC-By 4.0 Chiara Eccher Four goals are more or less directly linked to New Mobility: SDG Goal 9 “industry, innovation, infrastructure” SDG Goal 11 “Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable” SDG Goal 13 “Climate Action” SDG Goal 7 "Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all“ as well as SDG Goal 17 “partnerships for the goals” as in a complex world, with non-linear dynamics, action driven knowledge-partnerships are relevant for success. This is why we are building on the ecosystem approach against the background of Open Innovation.
