The roles in MaaS (cities point of view)
The roles in the MaaS-field:
1) In the first phase only very limited (area, ideology) pilots are possible >minimum viable products. Piloting is needed. Finance is needed (EAKR,Tekes). The role of the city / the area: to offer as much open data as possible,to help gather the players together. Possibly a minor financial input, cities arenot the main financers of the R&D.
2) Real MaaS platform with open interfaces is possible only in the second phase.(In Finland: many legal changes are needed). The platform must be spatially atleast the size of Growth Corridor Finland to be economically profitable inlonger term. The services and apps will multiply and only the best ones willsurvive. Crowdsourcing is a key word. The best services are globally scalableand create possibilities for exporting services. Cities and municipalities havemany possibilities to enable the work, but the main responsibility for financingis still somewhere else. Also the enterprises take more financial responsibilityin the second phase.
