- 4screen connects the 4screen Mobility Experience Cloud (MXC) to millions of vehicles, to provide a digital driving experience for drivers with mobility-related offers near them or along their route.
- Strategic advisors and investors include Matthias Müller, Bram Schot, Frank Lindenberg, and Alexander Gösswein.
Munich, 11. October 2021. 4screen is ready to revolutionize connected mobility. The Munich-based company is the first mover in the ~€100 billion connected car commerce market. The 4screen Mobility Experience Cloud (MXC) seamlessly connects the vehicle to the mobility ecosystem and provides an interface for real-time communication with drivers. 4screen’s innovative solutions enable car manufacturers and mobility service providers to provide relevant data-driven and location-based in-vehicle services to drivers.
Examples of services made possible by 4screen’s MXC:
- Drivers can be given free parking or charging sessions via their vehicles’ screens when they park or charge at partner locations along their route.
- Drivers can receive offers or discounts when they search in their vehicles for their favorite stores or restaurants near them.
- A store relevant to the driver can be highlighted on the vehicle’s map or be proactively recommended as a stop.
- In the future, sponsored rides, where a shop subsidizes the driver’s travel costs, can also be enabled.
The MXC is being integrated with renowned car manufacturers and mobility service providers. In the coming months, 4screen’s services will be integrated into the vehicle fleet of a leading European car sharing company.
4screen enjoys the support and mentorship of a panel of experienced advisors and investors. The list of strategic advisors and investors includes, amongst others, Matthias Müller (formerly CEO of Volkswagen AG), Bram Schot (formerly CEO of Audi AG and currently Board Member of Royal Dutch Shell plc), Frank Lindenberg (formerly CFO of Mercedes-Benz AG and currently Board Member of Lucid Group Inc.), and Alexander Gösswein (currently Vice President at Criteo S.A.).
“We integrate an entire ecosystem of mobility-related services into the vehicle, filling a huge gap,” says Fabian Beste, CEO of 4screen. “Businesses along the route, such as petrol stations, restaurants, supermarkets, and car parks, are an integral part of every journey. However, these businesses have not yet had the opportunity to reach the drivers directly in their vehicles.”
“4screen is in the perfect position to help car manufacturers, mobility service providers, and businesses engage with drivers and provide them with an experience that is unrivaled in the market,” says Bram Schot, former CEO of Audi AG and current Board Member of Royal Dutch Shell plc.
Car manufacturers and mobility service providers use 4screen’s APIs to offer integrated services, such as stops and relevant suggestions along the route for superior driving experiences. Businesses of every size - from local shops to global brands - access the 4screen portal to engage with drivers in real time. Drivers will benefit from an enhanced digital experience with useful recommendations, innovative services, and relevant offers for their daily lives. 4screen is defining a category - a new infrastructure for the connected vehicle where 4screen is the de facto standard.
4screen is on a mission to build technology to create truly connected cars and provide drivers with relevant and valuable information to enjoy their journeys. To achieve this the company connects separate vehicle clouds and the fragmented mobility ecosystem. “With our solution, car manufacturers and mobility service providers are able to improve the driving experience and increase driver engagement via their own user interface. Integration into existing car interfaces and apps of any brand is quick, cost effective, and enables innovative business models around mobility,” says Christoph Mahlert, CTO of 4screen.
The 4screen technology is developed by a team of automotive, marketing, and software experts from leading automotive and tech firms. The launch of the platform, which will be communicated together with several car manufacturers and marketing partners, is planned for the end of 2021.
