BYLOGIX (ITALY)
Bylogix is an engineering company, we design and develop software and hardware for electronic
devices and validation and testing systems. Our experts team has a deep know-how in sectors such as
Automotive, Railway, Naval, Industrial, Infrastructure&Communications.
We developed an automotive digital dashboard with 3D elements, to be implemented as an
infotainment tool to benefit remote services. We also featured the dashboard and the body computer
of "Bluetorino", the sustainable car-sharing of the capital City of the Piedmont region, which consists of a
fleet of 150 electric cars. Currently, we are going to approach the market of autonomous driving vehicles.
We were willingly involved in the MobiGoIn project, a meeting place where we found inspiration for new
ideas and networking opportunities for new partnerships.
For us, extra-European countries are very interesting. We have already opened a branch in USA and we
are looking at China as a potential target market. For us it is very important to understand the context,
the culture, the mentality of people we are going to dealing with, in addition to the contractual aspects
and strategic partnerships that can be apply to a specific country. We hope that, in the immediate
future, MobiGoIn will help us find new markets in those countries.

ZENBUS (FRANCE)
« Zenbus addresses the stakes of the future of mobility by improving the mobility experience of travellers. »
Zenbus is a simple solution for all public transit networks, based on direct communication between the
driver’s smartphone and users. Easy to setup, passengers and supervisors now receive reliable and
accurate realtime information.
Our startup specialised in GPS geolocalisation and mobile technology has come a long way since it was
created in 2011. Now Zenbus works with more than 50 public transit network, in France and North America.
More than 100 000 passengers and bus drivers connected themselves past year.
One year ago, we where involved in MobiGoIn as a partner to Mov’eo. This project gave us the
opportunity to express our needs to face the international scale. It has been interesting to learn about the
other companies requirements regarding the same field and exchange opinions. As part of an
international event which took place in Paris, we had the opportunity to meet two German companies
(members of BWCON); a rewarding experience.
Zenbus is always looking to rise to new challenges and considers the expansion of its activity to an
international scale a priority.

HEIDELBERG MOBIL INT. (GERMANY)
Heidelberg Mobil is a software house focusing on mobile location-based services in conjunction with
interactive indoor maps.
We help people find their way around urban spaces since 1998. Heidelberg Mobil International GmbH’s
Deep MapTM technology enables seamless indoor and outdoor navigation of complex sites. Seamless
mobility and optimal orientation are hugely important to everyone, particularly in the context of the
digital revolution.
It was a pleasure to us to present our thoughts and solutions at the MobiGoin workshop in Stuttgart under
the title “Orientation Worldwide – From Outdoor to Indoor with Deep MapTM”. We presented our mobile
indoor mapping and navigation solution to a broad international audience and got confirmation that our
software products contribute to smart mobility solutions. Especially in intermodal travel situation our indoor
maps and orientation support will make the change of means of transportation for citizens more safe and
comfortable. As our technology allows also a better orientation through public and private campus areas
we support the mobility of citizens in unknown areas, especially abroad where you might have
communication problems.
Our engagement in international and national networks, research projects and international academic
exchange enables us to actively drive new developments in the fields of location-based services and
spatial analytics. Its important to us having an active exchange with international project partners in
projects like MobiGoin – this is part of our internationalization strategy. An SME can’t just open offices in
other countries – you have to follow an step-by-step approach. For this, you need reliable, open, and
innovative partners. We are confident to find this kind of partners in the MobiGoin project and the
respective national clusters.

BLOCK ZERO (SWEDEN)
Block Zero is a strategic design studio.
“We design products and supply services for usability. We gather insights from research and
competitive analysis. We develop concepts using our expertise in ideation, design and technology.
And we deliver beautiful and inspiring results in the form of design, working prototypes and film.”
In the area of Mobility (as a service) we provide public transit with business advice regarding MaaS
as well as conceptual design of the future of ticket machines. We engage with both with companies
that produce physical products such as Breathalysers, Traffic flow sensors, Parking ticket machines as
well as service companies around car share and personal ownership solutions.
We have been involved in Mobigoin as a partner to Media Evolution and have shared our views on
Mobility and internationalisation and learned from others in the area of their views and challenges.
Block Zero is an inherently international company and work with customers on three continents,
that being said; our penetration within the Mobility market in Europe outside of Sweden have been
slower than expected and we believe that our expertise and experience can be of value to both
public and private players over the continent. In this we believe that Mobigoin’s network in different
regions can be a valuable resource to find cooperations and projects.
