Made to Move Communities™
Inspiring the next generation of innovators as they develop inclusive mobility solutions for a more connected world
The Made to Move Communities™ challenge, launched in 2020, is Otis’ global social impact program. It pairs students with Otis mentors to solve real-world mobility challenges through STEM and artificial intelligence. Each year, students explore how mobility affects their communities and develop innovative solutions that make movement safer, more inclusive and more sustainable.
The program is designed to spark interest in STEM careers, strengthen our future workforce, and deepen Otis’ engagement in the communities where we live and work. It also supports career development by offering Otis colleagues meaningful opportunities to mentor, lead and grow.
One example of the program’s benefit to the business is the story of Agustín, a former participant in the Made to Move Communities initiative who now works at Otis as a technician. His experience demonstrates how exposure to STEM and mentorship can open doors to career opportunities while helping build a strong pipeline of future talent for our business.

作為一家Made to move you™
（「助您不斷向前」）的企業，我們視「通行無阻」為業務重點，致力讓人們自由地與更高、更快捷、更智能的世界接軌。
透過 2020 年推出的試行計劃，我們希望招募年輕人參與爲世界各地的人設計出全新的出行解決方案。
學生可透過計劃獲得與STEM相關的實習經驗，為應對全球勞動力迅速發展作更好的準備。 預計到 2030 年將有多達 5000 萬個與STEM 相關的職位空缺。
Year 6: Mobility solutions to support people and communities in times of natural disaster
Natural disasters are becoming more frequent and intense, disrupting infrastructure and limiting access to essential services. These events present significant mobility challenges for communities and first responders. Now in its sixth year, the Made to Move Communities program brings together Otis colleagues and more than 200 students from 25 schools across 18 countries and territories to leverage artificial intelligence in developing more resilient, inclusive and accessible solutions for disaster preparedness and recovery.

減少氣候變化影響的移動解決方案
今天，氣候變化比以往任何時候都更加嚴重地威脅着全球人類和社區的安全、繁榮和福祉。第三年的Made to Move Communities 計劃，我們賦予新一代創新者爲此問題提供解決方案。 Otis 同事指導全球超過230名學生、針對氣候變化問題引申的出行挑戰而研發解決方案、惠澤為未來新一代。 觀看影片以瞭解更多資訊。
長者的出行解決方案
The number of older adults is projected to double to 1.5 billion in 20502. For the second year of Made to Move Communities, we tapped young minds and applied creative thinking to help cities of the future adapt and meet the needs of this growing population. Across 14 countries and territories, teams of Otis employee mentors and students created STEM-based mobility solutions ranging from connected wheelchairs and smart escalators to a device improving access to local water stations.

Why Made to Move Communities™
啟發以STEM為本的出行方案
"Made to Move Communities"是奧的斯企業社會責任策略的主要項目，聚焦公司及所屬社區都相當關注的兩個議題：「STEM教育」及「共融出行」。
這項年度挑戰計劃旨在激發全球學生運用創意及科技，構思可以消除物理、地理及財務障礙的方案，協助社區解決日常生活經常遇到的出行/移動問題。
共融出行及身心健康
奧的斯明白出行/移動/外出是維持身心健康的重要因素，有助建立愉快和充實的生活。少數公司積極創造現今互聯的城市世界，及繼續運用創新思維革新大眾的生活與工作方式。
然而，現時仍有不少人士無法享有可靠、價格實惠及便捷的出行/移動/外出方法，因此難以上學、辦公、購物或求診。
我們認為人工智能、先進機械人及其他智能聯網裝置與網絡等新科技，具備解決以上挑戰的潛力，為全球實現共融出行的願景，發揮無遠弗屆的影響力。
參與Made to Move Communities計劃的學生有機會率先見證這個令人振奮的未來發展，亦可協助為現今和將來的世代建設美好的環境。
創建21世紀的人才庫
技能不足，導致2030年出現5,000萬個STEM職位空缺
在工業4.0時代，科技已經滲透至所有職位類別，涵蓋製造業及多個其他行業。為適應這個迅速轉變的職場環境，學生需要學習內容堅實的STEM課程及科目，包括科學、科技、工程及數學。
然而，根據一項預測，技能不足將導致全球在20301年最多出現5,000萬個職位空缺 。Made to Move Communities計劃希望可以解決這個問題：透過安排學生接受熱衷於推動科技發展，培育新一代創新者的奧的斯專才指導，讓他們在安全的環境下累積實際的學習經驗，藉此與學校現有的課程互補。
