Global Mobility Call @ IFEMA Madrid
Jun 14 – Jun 16 all-day

 

Global Mobility Call will gather the world’s top mobility players in Madrid

Global Mobility Call is aimed at becoming the world’s most important event for sustainable mobility. It will contribute to the post-pandemic economic and social recovery and to building much-needed energy resilience in the face of international shocks. Global Mobility Call will bring together leaders across all sectors involved in the development of sustainable mobility policies and business initiatives.

Organised by IFEMA MADRID and Smobhub, with the sponsorship and support of the Spanish Ministry of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda (MITMA), Global Mobility Call (GMC) was created as a strategic event to position Spain as the international hub for sustainable mobility, in a decisive context of post-pandemic recovery and in an environment of business development and investment opportunities fostered by the NextGenerationEU funds, the largest stimulus package ever seen in Europe, as well as the European Green Deal, the roadmap to make Europe the first carbon-neutral continent by 2050.

With a global vision, Global Mobility Call will bring together leaders from all sectors to share their vision for the development of sustainable mobility policies and business initiatives at the Madrid Exhibition Centre from 14-16 June 2022. The combined exhibition and congress format will feature the participation of major companies, corporations and multinationals, as well as leading speakers and institutions around the thematic blocks of Tech, Data & Innovation; New Urban Planning; Economic Development & Regulation; Sustainable Transportation; and Future Society.

Webinar: How to integrate autonomous vehicles with public transport
Jun 21 @ 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm

Via Webinar

Driverless transport isn’t simply a faraway dream. In fact, it’s already happening in innovative cities like Arlington, Texas, US and Kelheim, Germany.

Cities and transport authorities across the globe are using intelligent booking, routing and tracking software to seamlessly integrate autonomous vehicles (AVs) with existing transportation infrastructure across a wide variety of transport needs without sacrificing safety, equity or efficiency.

When deployed as part of public transport, AVs are more sustainable and accessible; and when designed and deployed efficiently, AVs can provide a useful service for riders, while enabling operators and automakers to maximise their autonomous investment.

Hear from our panel as they discuss these innovative partnerships in detail.

Speakers:

  • Ann Foss, Principal Planner at the City of Arlington
  • Jan Eller, Operations Principal at Via
  • Meghan Grela, Autonomous Lead at Via

Join us to learn how to convene the right partners, secure funding, and start deploying AVs to meet real transport needs in your community.
