Based in Northampton, United Kingdom, SOCIETAL is a community interest company, created to contribute education and research to logistics, social value, transportation and mobility challenges. We expand the work of the University of Northampton’s ‘Institute of Logistics, Infrastructure, Supply and Transport’ (LIST). SOCIETAL aims to further the University’s social impact; targeting the social benefits within its work, delivering empowerment through mobility, well-being from clean air/reduced congestion/healthy transport options, and improved access-generating employment opportunities in key local areas.

SOCIETAL’ s role in TInnGO includes its contribution to work package tasks and jointly co-ordinating the national hub and lab in the United Kingdom. SOCIETAL, together with Coventry University, will run the UK hub, based in the Midlands and split between sites in Coventry and Northampton. The hub will specialise in the transport needs of women from diverse backgrounds, rural mobility, public transport and future vehicles.
