The project is aimed at unlocking and strengthening the research potential and promoting excellence of the University of Zilina as well as of the Zilina convergence region, located in the north-west part of Slovakia, in the field of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).

Systematic development of human resources, effective exploitation of research infrastructures and advanced transformations of the institution steered towards enhanced competitiveness in the ERA are the key instruments to reach the ERAdiate goals.

Synergic effect between cohesion funds and research funding is the corner-stone for building up a unique research and innovation hub located in the convergence region and oriented on global societal and environmental challenges connected to solution of transportation issues with implementation of ITS.
