More information
During the SPACE4Cities, the participating organisations have the opportunity to develop innovative, pilot solutions not available on the market for the challenges presented by the project’s partner cities. Challenge topics are responsible mobility, adaptation and resilience to climate change, and urban planning and managing urban infrastructure. The best solutions are to field a physical pilot during 2026, and will get an opportunity to scale their service to other European cities.
Pre-Commercial Procurement is open to all interested organisations, not depending on the type of organisation: companies regardless of size, start-ups, research institutes and non-profit organisations and associations can participate in Pre-Commercial Procurement. However, participating organisations must be located in EU member states or other Horizon Europe partner countries.
The solutions developed in the Pre-Commercial Procurement must have commercial potential and scaling possibilities. The SPACE4Cities project offers resources for participation, cooperation opportunities between interested organisations to combine their expertise, as well as data collected from the project’s partner cities.
