International networks and various forms of cooperation with outstanding partners abroad are vital, as they effectively support and shape the transformation of mobility in Baden-Württemberg. With this in mind, e-mobil BW is expanding its international activities and intensifying Baden-Württemberg's worldwide cooperation projects.
International cooperation is imperative if innovation and transformation are to have the best possible effect. An exchange of ideas with leading experts worldwide is therefore essential for Baden-Württemberg as an innovation location. At the same time, global challenges such as climate change can only be successfully tackled with cross-border approaches at European and international level.
e-mobil BW benefits from a broad international network of relevant players, clusters and networks in Europe, as well as in North America and Asia. With its global contacts, e-mobil BW supports Baden-Württemberg – and in particular small and medium-sized businesses – in becoming part of international knowledge flows and value chains.
Successful international networking translates into an immediate competitive advantage, which in turn boosts the state's strength in innovation. At the same time, international cooperation projects provide benchmarks for measuring one's own performance.
e-mobil BW has worked out a comprehensive innovation strategy with partners from industry and science, together with the Cluster Electric Mobility South-West and the Cluster Fuel Cell BW. This innovation strategy serves as an orientational framework for international engagement. It outlines the basic principles of international activities and provides a list of measures for promoting international networking and cooperation.
e-mobil BW maintains international relations and partnerships in North America, Europe, China, Korea and Japan. An essential partner project in Europe is "Four Motors for Europe".
The portfolio is especially geared to the requirements of small and medium-sized businesses, helping them to open up relevant international target markets and to contact and cooperate with suitable partners abroad.
Based on its internationalisation strategy, e-mobil BW offers a comprehensive portfolio of measures that help Baden-Württemberg-based companies to move their activities to an international level:
When implementing internationalisation measures, e-mobil BW collaborates with Baden-Württemberg International, the Steinbeis Europe Centre and numerous clusters, networks and organisations in Germany and abroad.
In cooperation with Baden-Württemberg International, e-mobil regularly supports subject-specific delegation trips to relevant research and technology sites for future mobility technologies in Europe, North America and Asia.
