Abstract

This paper presents a model of the connected mobility ecosystem, which contains a description of the associated industry. Although connected mobility is a topic of global relevance and interest, we analyzed the ecosystem from a Germany perspective due to Germany’s strong history of automotive OEMs and suppliers. To gain a better understanding of the mobility ecosystem, we introduced a modified ego network visualization focusing on mobility services. This visualization guarantees an user-centred design analysis of the ecosystem and enables stakeholders to identify companies that are highly contributing in providing these services and rather passive contributors. Additionally, it allows ecosystem stakeholders to understand the complex collaborations of companies in providing mobility services. We plan to continue our work focusing on mobility scenarios addressing the needs and demands of mobility consumers.
