The European Startup Prize for mobility (EUSP) is an EU-founded acceleration and investment Programme for sustainable mobility startups. It was created in 2017 by Karima Delli, Former Chairwoman of the European Parliament’s Committee on Transport and Tourism, Boston Consulting Group and Via ID.

EUSP now brings together all major EU institutions, including the European Parliament, European Commission, European Investment Bank, Europe’s Rail as well as major mobility corporations and tech giants.
