Connected Mobility Hub

What Connected Mobility Hub does

Connected Mobility Hub is a privately-held Spanish company founded in 2016 and headquartered at Impact Hub in Madrid, operating as a multi-sided innovation ecosystem intermediary focused exclusively on the mobility sector. The company articulates a 'change model' that brings together four stakeholder groups — early-stage mobility startups, corporate innovation buyers, specialist and generalist mobility investors, and municipalities — to execute mobility innovation projects. It monetizes through three productized service pillars: Investment Services (maintaining investor relationships and hosting an annual Investor Event for portfolio startups), Innovation Services (analyzing corporate innovation needs, sourcing startups to fill gaps, and facilitating pilots and long-term partnerships), and CMH Accelerator Programs (mentor- and corporate-driven acceleration, including the Hub Ventures program in partnership with Singularity University Sevilla). The company also operates networking spaces and event activations as ecosystem glue.

The business is operated by a small team of 1-10, including two co-founders (Sergio Díez, Open Innovation; Tom Horsey, Investment) and three operational team members covering public projects relations, community building, and marketing. Distribution is regional (Madrid-led, with Andalusia reach via Hub Ventures), and customer acquisition runs through website intake forms segmented by stakeholder type, organic social channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter/X), and a content blog (movilidadconectada.com). The company has positioned itself within the European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH Madrid) framework, suggesting public-sector alignment in addition to private corporate and investor relationships.

No revenue, funding, ownership, or financial structure is disclosed. No proprietary technology, AI/ML capabilities, APIs, or patents are evidenced; the offering is fundamentally a human-curated ecosystem platform rather than a software product. The core asset is the network of relationships and the credibility of running repeatable programs, with the EDIH Madrid affiliation representing the most material recent institutional positioning.

Broad incumbents

• Wayra: Telefónica's global corporate accelerator and open-innovation platform, operating across multiple verticals and geographies. Directly comparable as a corporate-backed startup accelerator with structured programs, investor access, and corporate piloting pathways — though Wayra is much larger and not mobility-specialised.
• Plug and Play: Global innovation platform with a dedicated Mobility & Transportation vertical that runs accelerator programs, corporate-startup matching, and investor events. Closely comparable operating model, though at vastly greater scale and with broader geographic coverage.
• Techstars: Worldwide accelerator network with mentorship-driven programs, investor demo days, and corporate partnerships. Comparable as a multi-sided startup ecosystem, though Techstars is generalist and operates accelerator cohorts in many verticals including mobility.

Regional players

• Lanzadera: Spain-based startup accelerator (Valencia, with national reach) supporting entrepreneurs with mentorship, funding access, and corporate connections. Direct regional peer to CMH given the shared Spanish ecosystem and accelerator business model.
• Conector Startup Accelerator: Barcelona-based startup accelerator connecting early-stage companies with investors and corporates. Comparable as a Spanish accelerator focused on helping startups access capital and corporate partnerships, similar to CMH's Investment and Innovation pillars.
• SeedRocket: Spanish early-stage accelerator and investor network based in Barcelona. Comparable operating model — combining an accelerator program with a mentor/investor community and demo-day investor events.
• Startup Valencia: Valencia-based non-profit innovation ecosystem connecting startups, corporates, investors, and public institutions. Comparable community-driven model and multi-stakeholder GTM, though with a broader tech scope rather than mobility specialisation.

Direct peers

• MassChallenge: Global non-equity accelerator with industry-specific programs (including mobility & transportation) that connects startups with corporates, mentors, and investors through structured cohorts and events. Directly comparable in accelerator design and stakeholder mix.
• Impact Hub Madrid: Madrid-based innovation community and coworking space where CMH itself is physically hosted. Comparable as a community-led innovation platform activating entrepreneurs, corporates, and events — overlapping strongly with CMH's networking and community-activation model.

Emerging players

• IE Business School (Startup & Innovation Programs): Madrid-based business school with venture labs, accelerator programs, and investor networks serving early-stage Spanish startups. Comparable as a Madrid-rooted institution combining education, corporate connection, and investor access — overlapping with CMH's talent and capital facilitation.
