Electrification - Demonstrators and tech company collaboration pilot

Purpose and goal:

This pilot aims to develop parts of a thematic ecosystem in electrification that aims to build collaboration between innovative and larger established companies - for faster and innovative transformation. This is done in hands-on collaboration in Proof of concept / Proof of Value projects and in the development of the support structure for long-term collaborations.

The intent is to work challenge-driven and close to customers from industrial needs - where needs come from a group of OEMs and subcontractors, start-up companies, and academia. Expected results and effects:

The goal is to pilot working methods with demonstrators and innovation projects and develop a support structure - which enables an exchange between companies and actors that accelerate the transition to electrification and electromobility and which can be scaled in the long term. Some parts are: Develop working methods and structure for the work linked to Electrification hub.

Pilot collaboration on demonstrators / pilot projects and on startup collaboration and acceleration processes. Trial collaboration in 3-5 proof of concept- / proof of value- project. Approach and implementation: Basic work for development of support structure and working methods (March 22-April 23) Develop structure and format, as well as an implementation plan for the pilot work.

Development work - to build the capacity in innovative companies and large companies (April 22-May 23) Scout scaleups / startups and develop the forms for this work long-term. Selection and development of companies for joint development projects (POC / POV / Business opportunities). Implement pilots / test cases / demonstrators.

Synthise pilot and plan for scaling work (January 23 -May 23)
