Why participate? |

If you have a product or service that can benefit Transport for Wales processes, or improve passenger experience, we’d love to hear from you. |

Participants will collaborate with mentors across the innovation sector and Transport for Wales. This expertise will help your start up refine and develop a product fit-for-purpose for the rail industry, and then make a pitch to decision makers from Transport for Wales. |
|
Successful pitches will be awarded a contract of work, to fund the remainder of the project and produce a product or service that has real world impact across Transport for Wales. |
