In the future, the ways people get around will change – whether in big cities, small towns or out in the countryside. The same applies to freight transport. The main drivers of these changes are technologies such as autonomous driving and the growth of electric vehicles. There are also long-term trends: many cities are growing, and many consumers are more aware of sustainability and the environment.
These developments are affecting various economic sectors, from the automotive and energy industries to the public sector and logistics. With traditional market boundaries increasingly being torn down, decision-makers are looking for new mobility paradigms and business models.
Connectivity, data, transport modes, transport networks and transport infrastructure are combining to create smart mobility – solutions that not only transport us, but move us forwards as well.
At PwC, we see smart mobility as safe, efficient, practical and sustainable mobility solutions. We can help you navigate your business through the disruptive changes that are happening in the mobility ecosystem, keeping everything and everyone on the move.
A platform for the designers of tomorrow’s mobility: For the fourth time, the Smart Mobility Summit 2025 brings together experts from research, urban planning, policy and beyond. On 30 October in Berlin, they will discuss under the theme “Navigating Change” how new technologies and smart services can make mobility easier and better – and how to ensure this transformation aligns with society, the economy and the environment.
We are proud to once again be a cooperation partner of the University of St.Gallen (HSG) and to convene this highly innovative community. We look forward to a day full of inspiring keynotes, deep-dive sessions and time for networking. All information and the full program are available on the Smart Mobility Summit website.

Standing out from the competition as an attractive mobility provider requires companies to take innovative, data-driven routes. So far, very few mobility providers have exploited the potential of data because accessing and processing their own mobility data is proving to be a challenge in itself.
More than ever before, local and state governments are having to adapt to today’s influences and trends. Urban growth, climate change and digitalisation are just a few of the many challenges they have to face. In order to keep society functioning in the future, they must find intelligent solutions and develop further.
We help to develop products and services that are economically successful, technologically feasible and sought after by customers – and which simultaneously create an overall benefit for society and the world.
Our multidisciplinary team has done pioneering work: as a leading innovation agency, we combine many years of wide-ranging market experience with in-depth methodical know-how in business, service and tech design.

“CAS Smart Mobility Management – driven by SMART Data & SMART Cities” is an executive programme at the University of St.Gallen which aims to act as a fitness programme for the mobility revolution. The transformation of mobility has already begun, but can only succeed if all players, both public and private, work together to develop new mobility ecosystems. We are therefore pleased to be a partner in this programme for the fifth year in a row, supporting two startups with a grant of 50% of their tuition fees. Let’s rethink mobility together.
The University of St.Gallen (HSG) and PwC Germany have signed a cooperation agreement for joint, application-oriented research activities. In the newly founded Lab for Smart Mobility, researchers are developing innovations for mobility of the future together with experts in the field.
