Big plans require strong partners.
Let us introduce our goals to you and explain why you should support us in achieving them.
Our Objectives
Design and Testing
Our goal is to design innovative train components and integrate them into our locomotive. To ensure their reliability and performance, we will conduct iterative testing and optimization of these components.
Research and Collaboration
Throughout the development process, we aim to collaborate closely with research partners and the railway industry. Additionally, we will publish significant results in scientific journals.
Competition Participation
At the European Railway Challenge, we will compete against international teams to showcase the first generation of our locomotive and demonstrate our technological advancements.
Your Perspective and Benefits
