A note from our friends at the Transit Tech Lab: The Transit Tech Lab is an annual program for growth stage companies that have developed cutting edge technology products that can improve New York City's public transit system. The program is relevant to companies in mobility, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, IoT and predictive data. Pilot winners have the opportunity to refine and deploy their technology in partnership with the nation's largest transit system, the MTA. Candidates must address one of these two challenges and apply by November 30!

Subway Challenge: How can we better predict, prevent and communicate subway delays to customers?
Bus Challenge: How can we help buses move faster and more efficiently?
