Challenge@PoliTo_By Firms is an innovative teaching activity carried out within the spaces of the Politecnico di Torino. It plays a vital role in PoliTo's strategy to foster innovative education and entrepreneurial culture among students. These activities are organized in collaboration with external firms, who present real-life business challenges. The primary objective of these activities is to provide support for early-stage ideas and equip students with the essential skills needed to develop their entrepreneurial ventures.
During the experience, up to 30 master’s students are divided into multidisciplinary teams and work, compete and develop their own solutions.
The activities take place in an experimental educational laboratory: the CLIK - Connection Lab & Innovation Kitchen. During the discussion phase at the CLIK lab, students can experiment and practice what they have learned during their lectures in an informal and multidisciplinary environment that promotes the spirit of creativity and collaboration.
Challenge@PoliTo_by Firms – Stellantis
“Designing Sustainable Mobility Solutions for Changing Urban Landscapes”
The Topic
In the near future, cities will undergo significant transformations to address urgent social challenges such as population growth in "southern" areas, depopulation of rural areas, and the impacts of climate change. These changes will profoundly affect the way people and goods move within urban environments. It necessitates reimagining mobility solutions that are both autonomous and powered by zero/low-impact environmental fuels. This project aims to envision innovative solutions that will reshape urban mobility and create sustainable transportation systems capable of adapting to the evolving needs of people within future cities.
The Challenge
The purpose of the challenge is to explore the future trajectory of cities and identify suitable mobility solutions that can effectively meet the evolving needs of people and goods.
Key objectives:
• Defining existing city archetypes: clustering and machine learning techniques to categorize cities based on dimensions, typologies, geographical position and cultural patterns.
• Adapting urban spaces to accommodate automated and connected transportation: examining how these transformations can influence mobility behaviors, market segmentation based on attitudes, habits, and needs, and understanding the preferences and aspirations of individuals in terms of mobility choices.
• Understanding the shifting mobility habits (if/then scenarios, car-pooling, compliance with existing sustainability policies)
• Identifying design challenges for meeting mobility needs: addressing the key product and functionality design challenge.

The goal is to engage students in learning initiatives that effectively bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge acquired and the practical skills necessary for collaborative teamwork in a professional setting.
Entrepreneurial Culture: Promote the Entrepreneurial culture/behavior on the PoliTo Students.
Multidisciplinary Teams: Collaborate in a complex and multidisciplinary context.
Information research: Retrieval, Data collection and Utilization of information to support teamwork activities.
Hard Skills: Put into practice what they have learned during their lectures to solve a real problem from partner firms.
Soft Skills: Teamwork under conditions close to a real business environment, self-assessment and work organization.
At the end of this activity, students will be better equipped to thrive in multidisciplinary team environments, a skill highly sought after by companies. They will possess the ability to analyze industrial problems with a holistic approach, considering both technical and market aspects.

The Challenges last one semester, corresponding to 14 weeks. Those relating to the first teaching period start on the 2nd of October 2023 and end on the 12th of January 2024. During the activities, students must work in multidisciplinary teams supported by a group of tutors, coming from PoliTo and external partners, with complementary backgrounds and competencies, and supervised by prof. Cristina Pronello (DIST).
Every team will self-organize its own working time and methodology. They will dedicate approximately 1.5 hours per week, with the support of mentors, either in the CLIK Lab, a similar space, or remotely.

Every team will self-organize its own working time and methodology. They will dedicate approximately 1.5 hours per week, with the support of mentors, either in the CLIK Lab, a similar space, or remotely.
The event will take place at CLIK Lab (Connection Lab and Innovation Kitchen), located in the central building of the Politecnico di Torino (Corso Duca degli Abruzzi, 24), in a similar space or remotely, with the following schedule:
● Kick-Off & Team Formation: the partner company and tutors will conduct a session on the Challenge issues, including the Team Formation and Team Building phases to establish multidisciplinary teams. A joint meeting of 2 days will be held.
● Problem Analysis and Idea Creation: Teams will have two weeks to analyze the problem in detail. A team of mentors will provide support through weekly meetings.
● Idea Presentation – 1st Work Progress: each team will present the problem and their proposed solution through a pitch. This will be a half-day joint meeting.
● Prototyping and Development: Teams will meet weekly at CLIK (or a similar space or remotely) to collaborate with mentors who will support the project's development. This phase will span 11 weeks of teamwork.
● Two Mid-Check Presentations – 2nd and 3rd Work Progress: two half-day meetings will be dedicated to discussing work progress during the Prototyping and Development phase
● Final Presentation: at the end of the 14th week, teams will present their projects through a pitch. This will be a half-day joint meeting.
Every team will have the flexibility to self-organize their working timeframe and methodology. However, they will be required to allocate approximately 1.5 hours per week, with the support of mentors, either in the CLIK Lab, a similar space, or remotely.
During the Challenge, teams are expected to submit the following deliverables:
- Three presentations (i.e., PPTs) for Work Progress: these pitches will explain the outcomes achieved and outline the next steps of the project during work progress meetings.
- One monthly report: a report describing the outcomes achieved and outlining the next steps will be submitted monthly.
- One presentation for the Final meeting: this final pitch will be presented during the concluding presentation to provide an overview of the entire project.
- One final report: a comprehensive final report on the entire project will be submitted. A standard form will be provided for this purpose.
Please note that the outlined structure serves as an example and may be subject to modifications throughout the course of the Challenge.
