Sustainable Innovation on Digitized Construction and Mining Sites

Construction/Mining must become more efficient & sustainable! IoT and digital services for workers, machines & processes promise to help. Key is a stable, reliable, and independent network connection - ubiquitous connectivity - exactly what proves difficult on large construction/mining sites. Work together with Liebherr to build stable connection to cloud services without local cellular network connectivity using pre-existing devices.

What potentials and skills can you bring to the table in order to shape a sustainable future together with the Digital Generation?

Potentials and skills: Highly effective, interconnected CO2 neutral construction machinery.

 

How can a potential partnership after the Challenge look like?

Liebherr intends to provide promising teams with the opportunity to further develop their ideas and solutions together. During the elaboration phase, the challenge finalists will work with Liebherr on their approaches. Further collaboration and support programs like the following may result and will be discussed:

  • Liebherr could support IP / take over and support patent application
  • Translate the idea to a POC in the field (on site)
  • Joint partnership for industrialization of the solution by becoming part of Liebherr's digital journey of construction/ mining machines
  • Financing of the development (industrialization)

On top Liebherr has some more rewards and incentives planned:

  • Appearance in social media channels of Liebherr –communication and visibility
  • Liebherr - Open Innovation - Award
  • Presentation within the Liebherr Group: opportunity to meet Liebherr Top Management
