This year, ERCI honours pioneering innovation projects of European rail industry companies for the sixth time with the ERCI Innovation Awards.

The ERCI Innovation Awards are organized and attributed by the clusters, members of the European Railway Clusters Initiative, to European companies that provide products, systems, technologies, processes or services, with proven innovative features. Winners are selected by a European jury of independent experts representing industry, research and public authorities.

Selection of winners is based on the following criteria:

• Innovation features of the solution
• Economic and social benefits for the railway sector
• Integration of new digital technologies
• Impact on “human capital”
• Creation of the innovation by networking (cooperation with other private or public entities)

Be there to find out which innovations have won the race this year. It remains exciting.

The ERCI-10 online seminar will be held in English as part of the InnoTrans Business Days. Participation is free of charge. Please register by 21 September 2020.
