Our approach

We're

no nonsense when

it comes to

open innovation.

Keolis Open Innovation is driven by people and partnerships. We work with partners and clients in public and private sectors to develop innovations that improve passenger experience, operational efficiency and more.

Our expertise lies in data, digital and the ability to scale solutions. Our partners bring real use cases and new technologies. Together with our partners, we take a user and problem-first approach. We’re output-driven, but we also accept that there is no progress without failure.
