Our first project results are now available online. Please visit our publications section where you may find four new INTEND Deliverables.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 769638.
Intend means INtentify future Transport rEsearch NeeDs.

National climate commitments to date will not be sufficient to keep global warming to below 2°C.
Transportation has the highest growth of CO2 emissions of any industrial sector.
According to the Paris Agreement, the reinforcement of innovative transport technologies and innovation support would be the solution.
At a time of public budget constraints, major demographic changes and increasing global competition, Europe‘s competitiveness and, overall, maintain our future standard of living depends on our ability to drive innovation.
Based on scientific breakthroughs in recent years, the explosion in the knowledge on transport systems is set to deliver a continous stream of new applications.

Intend means INtentify future Transport rEsearchNeeDs.
Intend received funding from the European Horizon 2020 Programme (Mobility for Growth/ MG-8-7-2017 ).
It is a coordination and support action running from October, 2017 until October, 2018.
1. Definition of the research landscape by reviewing literature related to technological advances, political imperatives, future transport concepts, foward looking research projects,
2. Understanding the conditions by definition and validation – with the help of experts – of Megatrends and their impact on the transport concepts of the future using the Analytical Network Process (ANP),
3. Delivering Mid term research priorities by developing a sketch of the future transport system, identifying gaps between ongoing R&D streams – fields of technology and development of the mobility system itself) , delivering a blueprint on transport needs, priorities and opportunities – especially by trying to identify and integrate blind spots beyond the mainstream.

General goal
Intermediate goal
Methodology – a structured approach based on the application of the Analytic Network Process (ANP) with three steps
1. Clustering technological advances, political imperatives, megatrends and key transport concepts of the future,
2. Identification and estimation of relationships (weights) between all elements in clusters and between the clusters,
3. Determination of the prioritized elements (technological advances, megatrends and political imperatives) in all clusters for successful implementation and realization of key transport concepts of the future.
Targeted Results
The updated transport synopsis tool
General Goal
Methodology – for elaborating the guidelines for a forward looking transport sector –
1.A sketch of the future transport system will be developed pointing out the differences to the recent system – based on desk research and results from previous work steps.
2.Second, the impacts of potential game changers for the transport system will be elaborated through qualitative expert interviews – providing hypothesis concerning the development of the transport system to be tested in an online survey.
3.Third, based on the results a transport research agenda will be elaborated, pointing out research needs, priorities and opportunities in the transport sector beyond mainstream research.
