ERCI European Railway Clusters Initiative ASBL Innovation Awards 2025.
During EXPO Ferroviaria in Milan last week, the European Railway Clusters Initiative (ERCI) announced the winners of their 2025 Innovation Competition at the booth of ERCI partner cluster DITECFER.
This competition is in its 11th year and still brings exciting new talent, products and innovative solutions to the rail/mobility/transport markets at home and abroad. Well done to all 17 European rail clusters that make up the ERCI European Railway Clusters Initiative ASBL; without the many entrants from many different European countries (whether in the EC or not), we would not have such a competition that is going from strength to strength. It is also important to recognise that the judging panel is also multinational and ERCI remains grateful to all cluster managers, leading academics and other senior rail professionals that give freely of their time to make this competition such an international success.
