EuroTube’s mission is to explore the next generation of mobility infrastructure technologies that will pave the way for a more sustainable future.
The demand for travel and transport continues to grow throughout the world, and with it comes the need to re-invent transport systems and their infrastructure for sustainability, speed, safety, and convenience. In recent years, many organizations have invested in the research of magnetic levitation trains, also known as “hyperloop.” This technology has the potential to be the transportation system of the next generation, as it combines speed with environmental sustainability.
As an independent research institute of national importance (RIPA Art 15), EuroTube builds the ecosystem of companies and university research to develop this next generation of infrastructure technology in Switzerland. EuroTube works to consolidate the research in hyperloop and next generation rail technology, train young researchers to become sustainability champions, and serve as ambassadors for this technical development, raising awareness among policymakers, the public, and the business community about the importance of sustainable transportation transformation.
Headquartered in Zurich, EuroTube operates a development lab and is currently constructing a high-tech testing infrastructure at the Innovationspark in Dübendorf, the DemoTube. This facility will allow the next generation of transport technology to be developed right here in Switzerland, and will offer research facilities for advanced construction methods, new types of magnetic propulsion systems, vacuum technology, and material sciences.
