Our Story
In October 2023, we got to know each other through our joint Master’s program in Entrepreneurship and Digital Transformation at the University of Applied Sciences in Munich. In November, we had the opportunity to attend the Tomorrow Mobility fair in Barcelona with the EIT Urban Mobility and were fascinated by all the innovative solutions and ideas. After many conversations with different people about comfort, we realized that people with mobility impairments face so many barriers and that comfort does not start with a comfortable seat, but rather the desire for flexibility and independence is a daily companion. This made it clear to the whole team that we want to create a solution that adds real value to people’s lives.
Mission
Our mission is to empower people with mobility impairments by providing innovative solutions that improve their mobility and independence in urban areas and promote inclusion.
Vision
To create a world where all urban environments are fully accessible, and where people with mobility impairments can navigate cities with confidence, independence and flexibility.
Value
Beyond Barriers is committed to promoting inclusivity and enhancing mobility through the use of cutting-edge technology and community collaboration. We value innovation, accessibility, and user-centered solutions, and strive to break down physical and digital barriers to create equitable urban spaces for everyone.
