The RAPTOR programme is designed to help cities and startups co-create, validate and refine new approaches to mobility while accelerating the deployment of innovative technologies.<\/p>\n<p>The selected projects span a broad range of urban mobility priorities, including <strong>electrification, active mobility, urban logistics, public transport optimisation, road safety and data-driven decision-making<\/strong>. By enabling real-world testing, participating cities can evaluate innovative solutions in practical settings, while startups gain opportunities to demonstrate the effectiveness and scalability of their technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Among the<strong> approved projects<\/strong> are initiatives to support electric vehicle charging infrastructure planning, improve public transport reliability through real-time data, enhance road safety for schoolchildren, increase the accessibility of EV charging points, and introduce data-driven parking management systems. Other pilots focus on reducing congestion and emissions through more efficient urban logistics and providing city authorities with new tools to monitor and manage transport networks.<\/p>\n<p>According to EIT Urban Mobility, RAPTOR demonstrates the value of <strong>collaboration between cities and innovators<\/strong> in addressing local transport challenges. By combining city needs with entrepreneurial expertise and rapid testing, the programme aims to support the development of <strong>more sustainable, inclusive and resilient urban mobility systems across Europe<\/strong> while helping innovative solutions move more quickly from concept to implementation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 6 July 2026, EIT Urban Mobility announced the list of startups and small ad medium-sized enterprises selected for the RAPTOR (Rapid Applications &#8230; <a class=\"cz_readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/fourteen-projects-for-testing-innovative-mobility-solutions-through-raptor-2026-approved\/\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span>\u010c\u00edst v\u00edce<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21939,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","iawp_total_views":0},"categories":[577],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21941"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21941"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21941\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21942,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21941\/revisions\/21942"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21939"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21941"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21941"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21941"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
