Innovationszentrum für Mobilität und Gesellschaftlichen Wandel

The Innovationszentrum für Mobilität und gesellschaftlichen Wandel (InnoZ) GmbH was a Berlin-based research company whose corporate purpose was primarily the investigation of social, technical, political and economic innovation processes in the fields of mobility and transport. According to its own corporate description, it focused in particular on the effects of demographic and economic-structural change, and it also provided scientific monitoring and consulting for the introduction of new products and services. In this sense InnoZ operated at the intersection of transport research, social science and innovation consulting rather than as a conventional manufacturer or transport operator. The company was registered in Berlin-Charlottenburg under commercial register number HRB 102507 B and used the VAT identification number DE248939551. Its public presence was maintained through the website www.innoz.de. Wikidata describes it simply as a company in Berlin, Germany, and the available evidence does not record a founding year, founder, parent company or ownership structure. InnoZ is no longer an operating business. With effect from the end of 31 December 2018, the shareholders resolved to liquidate the company. Operations were shut down as of 30 April 2019. The entity continued to exist during liquidation until its final deletion from the register, and in June 2022 its business address changed. Since then the company can be reached only through Deutsche Bahn Connect GmbH, Commercial Management (P.N-PF), Torgauer Straße 12-15, 10829 Berlin, by post, by telephone via the liquidator Martin Masch, or by email at martin.masch@deutschebahn.com. The website itself states that this is a page of Innovationszentrum für Mobilität und gesellschaftlichen Wandel (InnoZ) GmbH i.L. and that the company is represented by the liquidator Martin Masch. Because the operating business has been discontinued, InnoZ should be understood as a defunct research organisation and corporate brand rather than an active market participant. Its legacy lies in the research and advisory work it carried out on mobility and societal change, and in the fact that its remaining legal shell is administered in connection with Deutsche Bahn Connect GmbH.

The Innovationszentrum für Mobilität und gesellschaftlichen Wandel (InnoZ) GmbH was a Berlin-based company dedicated to research on innovation in mobility and transport. Its corporate purpose, as stated in its own materials, was primarily the exploration of social, technical, political and economic innovation processes in the fields of mobility and transport, with particular attention to the effects of demographic and economic-structural change. This purpose also encompassed scientific monitoring and consulting for the introduction of new products and services. The company was registered at the Berlin-Charlottenburg commercial register under HRB 102507 B and used VAT identification number DE248939551. It maintained a public web presence at www.innoz.de. Wikidata records it as a company in Berlin, Germany. The available evidence does not specify when InnoZ was founded, who founded it, or who its shareholders were. What is documented is its end. With effect from the end of 31 December 2018, the shareholders of InnoZ resolved to liquidate the company. Operations were shut down as of 30 April 2019. The company continued to exist during liquidation until its final deletion from the commercial register. In June 2022 the business address of InnoZ GmbH was changed, and since then the company can be reached exclusively through Deutsche Bahn Connect GmbH, Commercial Management (P.N-PF), Torgauer Straße 12-15, 10829 Berlin, by post; by telephone via the liquidator Martin Masch; or by email at martin.masch@deutschebahn.com. The website states that it is a page of Innovationszentrum für Mobilität und gesellschaftlichen Wandel (InnoZ) GmbH i.L. and that the company is represented by the liquidator Martin Masch. Thus InnoZ's history is that of a research organisation that operated in the mobility and societal-change field and was wound up at the end of the 2010s, with its remaining legal shell administered in connection with Deutsche Bahn Connect GmbH. No further dated milestones, products, campaigns, scandals or executive appointments are supported by the supplied evidence.
