The ITS & mobility
landscape is undergoing
massive change
The need to make mobility more sustainable, change user behavior, advance technologies, create new business models, as well as develop new options for how people can travel from place to place are some of drivers leading to massive change in the entire mobility landscape.
Connected cars, mobility-as-a-service (MaaS), smart infrastructure, autonomous driving, shared mobility, demand management and connected vehicles are all examples how the world of mobility and traffic has changed in the past few years.
These changes have massive effects on transportation-industry stakeholders. New, large players are entering the market, startups with new ideas and technologies are emerging, and new forms of ecosystems and partnerships are being built, while some of the established players are dropping out or are being consolidated.
This new environment comes with opportunities as well as risks. Both established companies and new players need to properly position themselves. Strategies and practices need to be challenged and reworked based on fresh thinking and openness to innovation, in order to best leverage the opportunities this new era of mobility presents. This is where GO Consulting can help.
