Tech Front · Infrastructure
Infrastructure Front.
Mobility, logistics, energy and urban systems.
The challenge
Why this Front exists.
The continent's infrastructure deficit is also its largest software-enabled opportunity. From mobility to logistics to energy, the wins increasingly come from coordination and data — not just steel and concrete.
The Infrastructure Front backs builders working with operators and authorities on the software and operational layer that makes infrastructure work.
Where we're focusing
Briefs we're scoping with partners.
Mobility
Public transit data, ride and freight platforms, EV infrastructure.
Logistics
Cross-border trade, last-mile delivery and warehousing.
Energy
Grid, off-grid and productive-use applications.
Urban systems
Water, waste, housing and the operational layer of cities.
How it runs
Six to nine months, from brief to deployment.
Challenge brief
Co-authored with sector partners who own the problem.
Cohort build
Selected teams prototype in context — not in a slide deck.
Field trial
Solutions tested with real users in real settings.
Procurement bridge
Working products handed to the partners who can buy them.
