About the ITSUP challenge

The challenge is geared towards fostering collaboration among diverse startups and directly involving cities in the equation. The spotlight of this year's challenge shines on two pivotal themes: sustainability and road safety, specifics will be further defined by Swarco and selected cities of their network. Under either or both of these themes, ITSUP participants are called upon to craft a Proof of Concept (PoC) during Intertraffic Amsterdam. Swarco’s industry experts will be on hand to guide them through the matchmaking and development phases. Each startup will have the opportunity to present their ideas and engage with the needs and challenges presented by cities acting as launching customers.

The winning concept will transition from the drawing board to the streets, with the coaching and support of Swarco for future developments. The primary challenge for participating startups lies in strategically aligning the puzzle pieces, unlocking the value of collaboration, and ensuring that the advancements in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) benefit us all. The road ahead involves a dynamic blend of innovation, partnership, and shared progress.

About the Pitch Competition

All participating startups are offered the opportunity to pitch their product/solution in the ITSUP arena. The pitches will be judged on clarity and structure, market potential, innovation and differentiation, and the extent to which the solution contributes to smart, safe, and sustainable mobility for all. The winner of the pitch competition will receive a free booth at Intertraffic Amsterdam 2026. The participation criteria and registration form can be found on www.intertraffic.com/ITSUP.
