Each year, the German Mobility Award honors forward-looking projects, applications, and products that use digital innovations to create intelligent, sustainable, and inclusive mobility while taking people’s needs into account. In addition, the German Mobility Award aims to anchor the topics of digitization and mobility in the public sphere, promote innovations, strengthen networks, expand contacts, and set political priorities.

The German Mobility Award is not a cash prize. Instead, all shortlisted projects receive a high level of public attention and the chance to promote themselves with one of the most important awards in the digital mobility sector. In addition, there are numerous exclusive networking opportunities and all of the projects, products, and applications receive transparent feedback from the jury.

In 2022, the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (BMDV) commissioned iRights.Lab and the Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V. with the planning, implementation, and supervision of the German Mobility Award.
