iCity. Transformative Research for the Livable, Intelligent, and Sustainable City
Economy and society today face a multitude of complex challenges (“grand
challenges”) like climate change, demographic change, urbanization, or digitalization,
which create a constant demand for new technologies, services, business models, and
consequently innovative solutions. In this light, the mobility sector has undergone a
great change over the past few years, which is formed by digital technologies on a large
scale. Against this background, this article will demonstrate, based on the example of
the iCity research project, to what extent the research design of transdisciplinary living
labs can serve as a basis for the development of innovative and sustainable mobility
solutions. At the same time, the influence of digitalization which plays a major role in
developing real implementable solutions for such challenges will be examined.
