Digital Product School.

Renowned companies, students and graduates all working together to change the world with digital products – that's what the Digital Product School is all about!

Each batch lasts three months. During that time, intensive work takes place on an initial prototype representing a genuine customer problem in the field of mobility. For this to succeed, each team consists of at least one product manager, software developer, AI engineer and interaction designer.

The participants are employees of the partner companies of the Digital Hub Mobility as well as ambitious talents, students and graduates from all over the world.

External experts – among the leading minds in their specialist fields – also contribute their expertise in the shape of lectures and workshops. With cross-functional teams, modern and agile work methods, and a constant focus on the customer, everyone can broaden their horizons and play their part in the success of the project.
