URBAN DATA CHALLENGE HAMBURG

How can cities share and govern data to become more democratic and sustainable?

The Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg and THE NEW INSTITUTE are making available exclusive and public mobility data as part of a competition of ideas and are looking for innovative concepts for gaining knowledge about cycling and micromobility flows in our city. The most convincing concept will win €40,000 for its implementation into an IT prototype - based on the provided data sets and in cooperation with the Hamburg Authority for Transport and Mobility Transition!

What are we looking for?

Innovative concepts for the analysis of cycling and micromobility flows in Hamburg

What are we offering?

€40,000 for the winning concept and exclusive cycling and micomobility data from our partner companies as well as a rich set of public urban data

Where do we stand?

The two finalists have now been invited to work on a detailed concept. The winner will be announced at the end of June.

RESOURCES

THE NEW INSTITUTE

THE NEW INSTITUTE is an experimental initiative aimed at developing social imaginaries for future societies. We combine academic rigour with innovative practice to inspire, promote and implement societal change. We try to close the gap between insight and action by bringing together academics from different disciplines with politicians, entrepreneurs, journalists, and artists.

We live and collaboratively work together in the Warburg Ensemble, which provides the conditions for rethinking conventional approaches to work. We host up to 35 fellows and build unlikely alliances.
