TEAM
Toyota is redefining what it means to move. We're challenging the current state of mobility by enhancing the movement of people, goods, information and energy. Centered around three core concepts - A Living Laboratory™, Human-Centered, and Ever Evolving City™ - Woven City serves as a test course for mobility to fulfill our purpose of well-being for all.
We do this by bringing together a diverse community of people with a shared passion for the future of mobility to co-create, develop and refine innovative products and services. This cross-section of social infrastructure, mobility, and people provides a unique opportunity for inventors, residents and visitors to interact seamlessly with new technologies throughout daily life in an environment that emulates a real city.
We will contribute to people's happiness by extending the possibilities of mobility. In this age of driver shortage, worker shortage, energy shortage, and other resource shortages, there is more that can be done by making mobility more automated, more versatile, and more efficient. Our team will develop a platform that makes mobilities multiuse to deliver “the services needed, when need them, where need them” utilizing City data and AI, which leads to improving accessibility of people. We are working with engineers in Woven City and the Toyota Group to create services that will allow various servicers to access mobility more efficiently.
Our team's mission is to expand the field of mobility to address the shortage of resources, create unprecedented services, and implement them in society as soon as possible.
