The NeMo.bil project, which was initiated by the New Mobility Initiative Paderborn (NeMo), has been awarded the German Mobility Prize (DMP) in the "New Mobility Solutions" category. A high-calibre jury from industry and politics decided on the award, which was presented by Federal Minister of Transport Volker Wissing.

"We are delighted to receive this award, which is an accolade for everyone involved. The award gives us additional momentum for our ambitious project," emphasised project initiator Prof. Dr. Thomas Tröster, holder of the Chair of Lightweight Automotive Design at Paderborn University and member of the NeMo.bil consortium, and Jonathan Behm, Managing Director of Neue Mobilität Paderborn e. V., at the German government's digital summit in Frankfurt/Main.

The NeMo.bil project is about a swarm-like mobility concept as an alternative and supplement to traditional local public transport. The participants are developing a completely new type of mobility system for the often forgotten rural regions. Through a disruptive approach, this system achieves a previously unrealisable level of energy and resource efficiency. NeMo.bil offers an on-demand service that is even more convenient than the private car and thus represents a real alternative in rural regions.

The consortium of the NeMo.bil project consists of the following project partners: Aspens GmbH, AVANCO Composites GmbH, BULIGHT GmbH, CADFEM Germany GmbH, CP Tech GmbH, Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. (DLR), dSPACE GmbH, FIWARE Foundation e.V., HOLON GmbH, INYO Mobility GmbH, LIA GmbH, Neue Mobilität Paderborn e.V., PHOENIX CONTACT E-Mobility GmbH, Poppe + Potthoff GmbH, Reisewitz GmbH & Co KG, Augsburg University of Applied Sciences, Ostwestfalen-Lippe University of Applied Sciences, Paderborn University, Berlin Science Centre and the Technical University of Dortmund.

Neue Mobilität Paderborn e. V. has set itself the goal of taking a holistic approach to mobility concepts, vehicle systems, energy generation and digitalisation. More than 70 network partners have come together in the association to rethink mobility between urban and rural areas. Neue Mobilität Paderborn e.V. sees itself as an initiator of projects that contribute to the common goal.
