PROGRAMA COLETIVO - PUBLIC TRANSPORT INNOVATION
Something very special is going on here in Brazil! We are gearing up a very exciting innovation programme focused on improving public transport as the key element to develop sustainable cities. It is called @PROGRAMA COLETIVO (https://www.coletivo.org.br).
In May 7th 2019, we launched @PROGRAMA COLETIVO based upon the understanding that innovation is the solution for the evolution of the Public Transport. Given the alarming decline in public transport demand, which is widely known as the result of lack of investments in dedicated infrastructure and public policies to encourage transport modes such as buses, light rail, subways and trains, we envisage that it is time also to work on client-centric solutions that may change future prospects of urban mobility.
@PROGRAMA COLETIVO has started the construction of an ecosystem gathering players such as public transport operators, public transport agencies and authorities, startups, technology providers, industry, investors and academics. To this end, we are now seeking sponsor, content and institutional partners of @PROGRAMA COLETIVO. Through the ecosystem, @PROGRAMA COLETIVO will disseminate innovation culture and projects that have potential to create new products and services for the Brazilian reality.
As an initial activity, @PROGRAMA COLETIVO has challenged those already developing innovation projects to participate in a competition called DESAFIO do COLETIVO (Coletivo’s Challenge). We received 36 projects from various parts of the country. Upon two rounds of analysis, including 15 videoconferences with the interested parties, we selected 6 finalists which will be presenting their projects to a 500 people audience during NTU’s annual conference on August 21st. The winner of the competition will have the opportunity to be in the incubation process as part of the @PROGRAMA COLETIVO.
This is just the beginning of a long journey towards innovation and transformation of public transport in Brazil. We will keep you posted on further developments and upcoming events. Get on the PROGRAMA COLETIVO and be part of the change!!
