#ChallengeMyCity project launches a call for proposals
Through its #ChallengeMyCity project, EIT Urban Mobility has opened a call for proposal for solutions from the private sector, pertaining to urban mobility related challenges in the cities of Heraklion (GR), Larissa (GR) and Braga (PT).
The call offers each of the selected proposals up to €60,000 in funding in order to implement a six-month pilot of their solution in the city context. It also provides implementation support and networking opportunities with other providers and the public administration.
