Transport Digital Accelerator case study

The Transport Digital Accelerator was launched in May 2018 at Sydney Startup Hub to connect co-design teams from the NSW Transport cluster with industry, researchers, entrepreneurs and start-ups in the transport technology space.

Direct collaboration between the public and private sector has already been successful in accelerating innovative solutions for our customers. 

The Accelerator Process

At the Transport Digital Accelerator we focus on inspiring our staff in new ways of working. Our Human Centred Design approach ensures that subject matter experts from across the business are brought together as dedicated co-design teams to truly understand the problems that are important to our customers and fast-track innovative ideas into tangible outcomes.

Innovation Challenges range from extending existing customer channels or operational systems, while others apply technology intelligently to disrupt long-established traditional transport systems such as timetabling and traffic modelling. Innovative ideas are piloted under ‘test and learn’ conditions and scaled up once they’re shown to work effectively.
