ABSTRACT
The Centro Nazionale per la Mobilità Sostenibile - MOST, in collaboration with 24 universities, the CNR, and 24 large companies, has the mission of implementing modern, sustainable, and inclusive solutions throughout the national territory. Focused on aerial mobility, sustainable road vehicles, waterway transportation, rail transport, light vehicles, and active mobility, it adopts the "Hub&Spoke" model with the MOST Hub and 14 Spoke Leaders to foster cooperation. We are investing in pilot projects (PoC) that explore emerging technologies and innovative solutions, aiming for scalability and revolutionizing mobility. MOST is also at the center of flagship projects that integrate advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and new materials. We support startups by financing young companies that develop revolutionary technologies in sustainable mobility. These investments promote innovation and create new opportunities for economic growth and employment. Additionally, we incentivize research with cascade funding to explore new fronts in sustainable mobility.
