Joint Investment in Hardt Hyperloop: Shaping the Future of Transportation

July 5, 2023

We are pleased to announce our joint investment, together with the founders of Platform Zero, in Hardt Hyperloop, a pioneering company at the forefront of transforming transportation. This collaborative effort brings together our organization and esteemed partners to support the remarkable advancements being made by Hardt Hyperloop.

Hardt Hyperloop achieved a significant milestone by securing €12M in funding, attracting notable public and private investors. We are proud to be a part of this momentous investment, as it propels Hardt Hyperloop’s mission to revolutionize how we travel.

This substantial investment will facilitate the completion of the European Hyperloop Center (EHC) and the development of Hardt’s cutting-edge Hyperloop test vehicle. The EHC, equipped with a 420-meter-long test facility and a lane switch, will be a crucial platform for testing and advancing essential hyperloop technologies.

Our involvement with Hardt Hyperloop reflects our unwavering commitment to driving innovation and embracing disruptive technologies in transportation. By supporting Hardt’s development efforts, we are actively contributing to realizing a more sustainable and efficient future of transport. Together with our partners, we are excited to witness the transformation of travel and the pioneering solutions that Hardt Hyperloop will bring to the industry. As we strive towards a net-zero carbon reality, the hyperloop emerges as a critical player in achieving our environmental goals.

Based in Rotterdam, we are privileged to be part of this groundbreaking endeavor. Our joint investment in Hardt Hyperloop represents our shared vision for a future where transportation is faster, more sustainable and accessible.
