The “innoVentures” team is looking for 12 interns to form an open innovation incubator targeted at specific market ‘territories’ as a potential source of new business opportunities. The project is focused on:

Creating a better mobility experience around the vehicle and independent of the vehicle.

The aim of the team is to further develop the innovative ideas of the previous intern group, continue the focus, build insight and develop proposals for potential businesses delivering revenue over the medium to long term.

The candidates should have the ability to think broadly and deeply about the world, particularly the rapidly emerging technologies and the social and environmental changes that underpin many of the wider global market disruptions in evidence today. The team would be expected to find out: What do users value and engage with? How do they react to various service related offers?
