Plan4Better stands for sustainable and efficient urban and transport planning. Our vision is of liveable cities and regions that focus on active mobility concepts, connected neighbourhoods and good accessibility to important destinations - in the sense of the 15-minute city. We implement these with our cloud-based planning software GOAT and consulting services.
Our joint journey started at the Chair of Urban Structure and Transport Planning at the Technical University of Munich. Out of science, we founded Plan4Better to enable fact-based and user-friendly planning decisions. Since then, we have been growing steadily and have become a relevant connection between science and planning practice thanks to our interdisciplinary and diverse team.
