At Lemon Mobility, we are journalists and communication experts. As such, we are allowed to be generalists—and we enjoy it! This way, we keep an eye on all facets of innovative public mobility.

In 2024, we crafted around 220 articles on our topic (excluding social media posts). We reported on research projects and studies, accompanied and commented on transport policy, interviewed visionaries and officials in the mobility sector, and attended trade fairs and symposiums. If you want to read more: much of this was published on the blog Zukunft Nahverkehr, and some in industry media such as Mobility Impacts, Der Nahverkehr, or KOMMUNAL.

We are not newcomers. The topic of mobility has been driving us for a long time. What excites us is the relevance and dynamism that our topic has taken on in connection with digitalization and climate change. Innovative mobility has become a central component of a society that is transforming and must transform in a post-fossil way. We help with that. We connect with the interests of different target groups. We can convey messages. We can “translate.” We also take care of implementation: design and production of digital and printed media.

The community of private and professional enthusiasts is growing. Many are interested in innovative mobility. Whether it’s about visions, innovations, political developments, or legal frameworks: we prepare complex content in an understandable way and put it into context. We find the core of the matter, bring messages to the point, and to the people. We convey ideas and help initiate discussions.

In addition to research, the main focus of the activities of the Institute for Mobility at the University of St. Gallen is the transfer of scientific knowledge to politics, business and society.

The Institute for Mobility

• drives the development of “New Mobility” in science and society,
• helps Switzerland to distinguish itself internationally as a location for “New Mobility”,
• is developing into one of the global leaders in the field of mobility.

The institute can build on long-term collaborations with renowned practice partners: In recent years, the researchers have worked with traditional mobility providers such as Volkswagen AG, BMW AG, Mercedes-Benz AG and other mobility companies such as TÜV, SBB, and the Israeli Startup Mobileye, Lufthansa AG and the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) worked together. The topics researched and worked on range from automated and networked driving, alternative drives, Mobility as a Service (MaaS), multimodal mobility, sharing concepts to questions of leadership and corporate culture and communication.

A look at the research performance shows that more than 30 articles were published in FT journals and other A journals during this time. On this basis, too, the Institute for Mobility has established itself nationally and internationally as a partner in the field of mobility – both in practice and in the academic world.

The Future Mobility Lab (FML) is a partner network led by the Institute for Mobility of the University of St.Gallen, fischerAppelt and SYSTEMIQ, consisting of important actors in mobility practice & research (especially mobility companies, municipalities & administrations as well as associations, federations & research institutions). In doing so, the FML follows the vision of making future mobility more sustainable, multimodal and less ownership-oriented in the long run.

Primary goal of the FML is to promote the exchange between these actors, to develop relevant knowledge about mobility behavior in the two core regions Germany and Switzerland, as well as to identify and test measures to change this behavior in the long term by means of applied research projects.

Findings from these research projects are both shared between the members and made accessible to the broader public. Hence, the FML considers itself as an active driver of the mobility revolution.

The Travel Industry Club was founded in 2005. It acts as an independent business club for the movers in the travel industry.

At around 30 events a year in a wide variety of formats, future-oriented, economically relevant, socio-political and scientific topics are brought into broad discussion.

The Travel Industry Club and Mobility Allstars cooperate in organizing several events. The Mobility Award is also presented together with Mobility Allstars as part of the TIC Award Night.
