Forging an inclusive future
How we drive change
CMDC creates value by working across three interconnected fronts essential to a just and competitive mobility future. Our integrated approach ensures comprehensive progress, addressing workforce needs, fostering entrepreneurship, and advancing technological innovation to transform transportation in California.
Workforce Development
Entrepreneurship
Research and Innovation
Change enablers
To bring these three vectors of engagement to life, Workforce, Entrepreneurship and Research, we rely on four foundational enablers: Awareness, Access, Pathways, and Action. These cross-cutting tools help us connect people, ideas, and resources in ways that unlock opportunity, accelerate progress, and deliver lasting impact across California’s mobility landscape.
Awareness
We spotlight opportunities and challenges in clean mobility, connecting people, ideas, and organizations across sectors.
Access
We remove barriers by providing inclusive entry points to tools, networks, and resources often out of reach.
Pathways
We build practical routes into clean mobility careers and entrepreneurship, supporting learners, startups, and partners through hands-on programs and targeted resources.
Action
We focus on implementation through shared projects and measurable outcomes. We ensure our efforts lead to lasting impact across the state.
Locally grounded, Broadly ambitious
What we’re building in California is more than a local effort. It’s a blueprint for inclusive innovation that strengthens collaboration and drives economic opportunity across our region. We’re committed to sharing what works so others can adapt it to meet their own goals. As we lay the foundation here, we aim to inspire and inform similar efforts elsewhere with equity, efficiency, and collaboration at the core.
