OUR PURPOSE IS TO MAKE CITIES MORE SUSTAINABLE, LIVABLE, AND RESILIENT.
Cities make up more than half of the world’s population. They will play a pivotal role in mitigating climate change.
We will require breakthrough hardware and software solutions to achieve net-zero goals and other important milestones.
We’re taking a grassroots approach in supporting founders that will positively impact climate, cities, and communities.
Created by MINI.
MINI was started out as a direct response to the fuel shortage caused by Suez Crisis, with the innovative design of a fuel efficient “proper miniature car” taking less space in cities.
MINI founded URBAN-X to support startups who share those values as part of a continued exploration of work that improves urban life.
