Kista Mobility Day '22

With its strong tech cluster, Stockholm is becoming an increasingly shining force when it comes to developing the transport of the future. This is where the connected transport services and new mobility solutions of the future will be developed.

Participants: Erik Ekudden, CTO, Ericsson, Staffan Ingvarsson, CEO, Stockholm Business Region, Karin Bengtsson, CEO, Kista Science City, Kristofer Ågren, Head of Division X Product at Telia Company and Jonathan Selbie, CEO, Univrses.
Moderated by Lena Forsberg, Ericsson.

Traffic congestion is a huge problem in urban areas. In Stockholm, car owners spend about 16 workdays stuck in traffic each year. Public transport is also affected by this, and during rush hours, bus services can suffer huge delays. This Talk is about using spacial modelling analytics & real-time tracking in various ways in order to enable for more effective traffic planning, with focus on public transport, through sensors, data and AI.

• How can we optimize mobility in the existing transportation network on a massive scale?
• How will real-time, shared and collaborative application platforms give access to multiple stakeholders?

Participants: Mikael Ranhagen, Region Stockholm, Eleonor Sjödin Turah, Kista Science City,  Claes Orsholm, Savantic, and Marc Rappe, Tre. 

This Talk discusses the applications of drones as an added layer in the transport system of the future. We will discuss the example of drone deliveries in Stockholm archipelago, that have the potential to reduce emissions from last-stage transport. With reduced delivery time, it also contributes to improving the quality and availability of services in rural areas, which could support behavioral changes towards a climate-neutral society.

• The potential societal benefits of drones have been long known, but how do we support commercialization? 
• Where are we today when it comes to pre- requisites to scale successful tests.

Participants: Fredrik Engströmer, Region Stockholm, Cecilia Strokirk, RISE, Alexander Perrien, Aerit, Maria Nordström, Skara Kommun, Henrik Svensson, Högskolan i Skövde, Emma Lindahl, ICA gruppen, Lei Chen, RISE, Andreas Gising, RISE. 

When the transport ecosystem goes digital, electric and connected the demand for a competence shift in the automotive business increases. The automotive industry is our most important export industry with 14 percent of Sweden’s total merchandise exports. One third of this industry is located in the Stockholm region together with a world-leading IT & Telecom cluster and excellent universities. This combination is an opportunity for developing a new world leading auto-tech cluster in the Stockholm region. One key challenge is competence. 

This current shift affects everybody, from subcontractors to aftermarket. What type of competence is required? How does the automotive industry attract recent graduates? How does the important exchange of skills take place? How do we build a pipeline with the right skills? Are the universities properly equipped to handle the industry's supply of skills? 

Today KTH presents a completely new reskilling learning platform that is adapted to the needs of the industry, built with new smart technology and with new ways of working to meet personal learning requirements. It aims to drive adult learning, encourage curiosity and allow direct access to answers to questions you have.

The platform is developed within the collaboration project Fordonsdalen that is co-sponsored by European Regional Development Fund.

Participants: Magnus Burman, KTH and Mattias Wiggberg, KTH, Claes Herlitz, Head of IoT Product Management, Ericsson

This Talk discusses the applications of Artificial intelligence in the field of traffic system management, with focus on using new multisensor technologies. The discussion takes its starting point from tests that are run in Kista in collaboration with the City of Stockholm and partners.

• How far have we come with tests in Stockholm and what's in the pipeline?
• Challenges and learnings? 
• How do we enable for scale up after successful tests?

Participants:
Maria Holm,  City of Stockholm,  Lucas Uhlen, Kista Science City, Wojciech Goj , City of Stockholm, Ann-Louise Johansson, Qamcom, David Eskilsson, Edeva, Amritpal Singh, Viscando.

This talk examines the potential effects of combining AI-planning and self-driving technology on the transport system in Stockholm.

• How do we make public transport be relevant in a self-driving future? 
• How far have we come, what results do we look forward to this year, and where are we in 2025?

Participants:  Mattias Lundberg, Stockholms stad , Jens Lindström, Nobina Technology, Hugo Hardenstam, Transdev, Håkan Karlsson, Region Stockholm, Jan Jansson, Keolis, Yury Tarakanov, Viscando, and Stig Persson, Ericsson.

Between 11 - 14 you will find an exhibition with demonstrations of robots and drones, of new bicycle solutions and radiocars. Stop by and learn more about the newest project regarding autonomous vehicles, try the food delivery robot or just to grab a lunch in the park. 

Participating companies are: ABConnect, EIT Urban Mobility, KTH, Teraki, Foodora, Ericsson, Livelo, Aerit, City of Stockholm, SuperAnnotate, Intel, Skysense, Nektta, RISE, Realisator, Univrses and more. 

The Exhibition and Demonstration area is in collaboration with Fordonsdalen, a project that is co-sponsored by European Regional Development Fund.

Smart mobility aims at making transport systems more intelligent, flexible, efficient and sustainable. Mobility includes far more than the vehicles and the infrastructure and require a holistic view and an ecosystem approach to ensure efficient and well-working solutions for governments, enterprises and individuals everywhere. At this THINGS Get-On-Top-Of™ Smart Mobility event we will listen to a couple of selected tech companies in the Mobility ecosystem, and members of THINGS, who will present what they do, where they are and share some insights.
This session is moderated by Magnus Melander, Co-founder THINGS.
