Future of mobility: DZM presents innovations at Hamburg summit!

Hamburg, Deutschland - On June 2, 2025, Hamburg is the scene of the Uitp Summit 2025, the world's largest industry meeting for sustainable mobility. Over 10,000 visitors from more than 100 countries are expected to discuss innovative solutions and technologies in the field of urban mobility. The event will take place from June 16 to 18, 2025 and will be accompanied by an accompanying Mobility Festival on June 14, which offers an interactive platform for all age groups to redesign the mobility of the future. According to uitpsummit.org more than 300 exhibitors and 340 speakers will be present to present your ideas and products.

Four innovation locations of the German Center Mobility of the Future (DZM) are represented among the exhibitors: Hamburg, Annaberg-Buchholz, Minden and Karlsruhe. They present their regional priorities in the "Research & Innovation Area" (Hall A, Stand A1700). TU Chemnitz reports that the DZM locations want to strengthen the interdisciplinary exchange and the visibility of German innovation competence in the international mobility discourse.

focus of the innovation locations

The Hamburg location focuses on digitization and wireless technologies. The "Hanseatic Wireless Innovation Competence Center" (HAWICC) ​​researches topics such as the life of life of bridges and streets. AI analysis methods and resilient networks are used. The development of traffic control strategies, taking into account ethical aspects of mobility, is also in focus.

In Annaberg-Buchholz, research focuses on human-technology interaction in telephoto operated driving and the development of sustainable mobility systems in rural areas. A prototype of a teleoperation workstation is shown in the Smart Rail Connectivity Campus (SRCC) innovation cluster. Exponations that embody the principle of human-centered design illustrate innovative operating and control environments.

new mobility solutions in Minden and Karlsruhe

Minden presents new mobility solutions for rural areas, especially in the context of the Monocab project, a roundabout -stabilized single track with self -driving cabins. A research project called Enableato examines the possibilities of automated driving for small rail vehicles. As part of a rail discussion, the “acceptance of automated rail vehicles” is also discussed.

Karlsruhe shows the project Country to City Bridge (C2Cbridge) in the joint stand of the Karlsruhe Mobility Lab (Hall A3, Stand A3610). Here, sustainable and climate -neutral transport offers are developed that include a combination of offers of local public transport in the city and flexible, autonomously driving call taxis in rural areas.

global challenges and goals

The challenges for cities are considerable: over 50% of the global population already lives in urban areas, and by 2050 it is forecast that around 70% will live in cities. This development goes hand in hand with increased traffic volume, noise and air pollution. A fundamental turnaround is therefore necessary to achieve the goals of the Paris climate agreement and the United Nations Agenda 2030. giz emphasizes that mobility is also for inclusive and just cities, especially for women and disadvantaged groups.

In four fields of action, the initiative pursues the goal of a climate -neutral, inclusive, safe and affordable mobility in cities worldwide, including advice from the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) on sustainable city traffic, climate change and justice.
