City of Munich launches innovation challenge 2020
Mar 10, 2020
The City of Munich runs an annual innovation challenge focused on topics in the field of smart cities. Students, entrepreneurs and all players involved in the startup community are called on to submit sustainable, innovative proposals for solutions to the specified municipal challenges.
The most convincing solutions will win the innovation award and will be further developed and tested in practice in collaboration with Munich’s city administration and UnternehmerTUM (the Center for Innovation and Business Creation at TUM).
Ideas for the 2020 round of the competition must be submitted by May 31, 2020.
This competition opens up Munich's public administration to innovation. It provides an opportunity to try out and implement new ways of doing things in a real-life, municipal test environment. We are looking for innovative solution proposals and concepts relating to the challenges specified by Munich's local government.
The topics addressed in 2020 are:
- Blockchain – problem-solving technology for the municipal administration?
- Pre-clinic patient management using reliable preliminary assessment
- Gamification – game-based motivation of municipal employees to adopt energy-saving behavior at work
- Climate Neutral Munich 2030/2035
Detailled information regarding topics, procedure, and application, as well as the results of the innovation challenge 2019 can be found on the official website.
