The European Startup Prize for mobility (EUSP) is an EU-founded acceleration and investment Programme for sustainable mobility startups. It was created in 2017 by Karima Delli, Chairwoman of the European Parliament’s Committee on Transport and Tourism, Boston Consulting Group and Via ID.

Established in collaboration with all major EU institutions (European Parliament, European Commission, European Investment Bank, EIT InnoEnergy, EU Space Programme Agency, SESAR-JU, Shift2Rail) and together with multi-national mobility companies and major tech players. This public-private initiative aims to support and scale up smart and sustainable mobility startups across Europe via massive visibility, investment opportunities, business mentoring, and more.

This event will open the application period for the 4th edition, which will remain open until 30 November 2021. It will allow all partner organisations to present the benefits they can offer for the winning startups. Join us!
