Societal changes and the climate emergency are prompting us to reinvent the way we move and the impact of our mobility choices.
This issue is now at the heart of the challenges facing public decision-makers driven by more sustainable and intelligent innovations.
The transition to sustainable mobility will not happen without public actors and solution providers moving forward together to allow access to mobility in accordance with citizens’ needs and the need to limit its impact. Intermodality driven by MaaS, the structuring and use of data, new modes of mobility and the transformation of historical players are all avenues of reflection for all public and private players in the mobility ecosystem.
Join us on February 1st for the Sustainable Mobility Forum and pave the way for a more intelligent, efficient and inclusive mobility!
IT-TRANS is the leading International Conference and exhibition focused on IT solutions for Public Transport.
Since 2008, the biennial event co-organised by Messe Karlsruhe and UITP (The International Association of Public Transport) has brought decision-makers and industry experts together to exchange, discuss and redevelop digital solutions.
The 2022 edition of IT-TRANS will take place in person and online from 10 to 12 May 2022, in Karlsruhe, Germany.
You can attend the full experience on-site or attend a selection of the sessions online from wherever you happen to be. We are in the process of designing a safe and accessible event where our audience can come together safely.
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.
Light + Building Autumn Edition: Focus on innovations for lighting and building technology
New impulses, personal exchange and innovative solutions are offered by Light + Building Autumn Edition from 2-6 October in Frankfurt am Main. More than 1,500 exhibitors from 46 countries will use the leading international trade fair to present their innovations live to a broad trade audience. Among them are numerous market leaders showing innovations for lighting, electrical engineering, home and building automation, and networked security technology. Thus, after the long pandemic-related break, the special edition of Light + Building provides a comprehensive overview of industry trends, new products and innovative solutions. The restart of the industry comes at a time that is more than ever characterised by uncertainty and crises. However, the intensified climate debate, questions about alternative energy sources and mobility concepts are also providing the industry with an environment in which its forward-looking solutions are more in demand than ever. The top themes at the show address these developments. An outlook:
Top themes of the Light + Building Autumn Edition
The top theme “Green Deal & Sustainability” focuses on systems that help to sustainably increase the energy efficiency of buildings and cities. Intelligent, independent and economical control of electricity demand is becoming increasingly important – whether on one’s own property, in the underground car park or in the employer’s building: charging stations for e-cars will play a major role in the future. Smart building and grids are other important buzzwords: People spend a lot of time in buildings. The broad collection and analysis of data can help to improve safety, energy efficiency and environmental compatibility in buildings. „Electrification & Digitalization” focuses on efficient planning, optimal energy use and comfort in buildings. Improved use of resources through the use of artificial intelligence ensures a demand-oriented energy supply for the property. Another top theme of Light + Building 2022 is “Light & Design“. It puts the focus on light in its many forms. Both the quality and the design of lighting play an important role in room and building planning. Sustainability is reflected in the use of natural materials and colours, and likewise in the recycling of resources.
Whether access restrictions, video surveillance, fire protection or data protection, the demands on integrated security technology are increasing in the building of the future. That’s why “Connectivity + Security” is one of the top themes at Light + Building Autumn Edition. While in the Intersec Building section, exhibitors will present innovations for home and building security, the Intersec Forum from 3-6 October will provide specialist knowledge and an exchange among experts.
In the Light + Building Contactor – the international search engine for lighting and building technology – all companies that have registered are listed. The exhibitors’ profiles with product highlights, videos and presentations can be clearly filtered according to interest and provide a compact overview. More at:
