In order to accelerate the green and digital transition and increase European industry resilience, the European Commission launched the transition pathway for the mobility ecosystem. The aim of the process is to support the ecosystem’s transition while ensuring it remains competitive and resilient to crisis.   The Commission invited stakeholders including AECDR to identify what digital and green transitions and increasing resilience mean for the mobility industrial ecosystem, and what specific actions and commitments are needed to accompany the transition. AECDR took the floor to state that there can be no transition if customers are not on board - and no one has more contact to customers than dealers and repairers!   It goes without saying that we will keep you posted about this process.  Gerardo Pérez Giménez Massimo Artusi Friedrich Trosse

Strongly recommend this event to any interested in civic/political tech… especially those looking for inspiration or wanting to develop ideas. Eddie is always an engaging speaker and I always left LOTI events feeling more motivated than before - and many within the sector will sympathise when I say it is all to easy to become demotivated when you’re in the weeds of your own projects. Public services IMO are akin to a puzzle in that the pieces are usually already there and the trick is putting them together well (though yes, sometimes you might be missing one or two!). Theres already a lot of tech out there, much of it atrociously bad from a user perspective. For someone with a background like mine I can’t help but watch what software/tech is thrust upon public service workers whenever I use a service and imagine the psychological agony it imposes on many thousands of workers (emergency services etc particularly!). Often I think whatever multimillion pound software they’re using looking like it’s from the Windows 98 era, yet was procured within the last year, could be surpassed by a university student’s project. I could talk at length [read: rant] about my insider’s perspectice on the systems used for “NHS” Test and Trace. Criminally bad. Whoever is in charge of procuring such things should have to spend a week using the thing, and the experience studied by students, before they sign it off. Most vendors sell you the world RE functionality, but the reality is entirely different RE user experience. Often we really can build better ourselves.

Only 3 days left! Submit your abstract before April 5th, 2024. We invite you to join us at the IRF Europe & Central Asia Regional Congress in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, scheduled for September 24-27, 2024. The premier event dedicated to discussing and shaping the future of #mobility and #roadinfrastructure will cover a broad spectrum of critical issues in the sector. Experts and leading authorities will offer deep dives into a variety of subjects, such as the integration of #artificialintelligence in transportation systems, the advancement of #transportation equity, the adoption of cutting-edge safety practices, the implementation of intelligent transportation Systems (#ITS), and the development of green and durable #pavement technologies. Additionally, strategic discussions will encompass financial models, focusing on road user charging (#RUC) and the nuances of transportation financing. Join us for a rich knowledge exchange with the goal of achieving green, safe, smart, and sustainable roads and mobility systems for the region. Read more: www.IRF.global/eca

All Transport Platforms advocate for Transport Research in FP10. The European Technology Platforms #ACARE, ALICE, Alliance for Logistics Innovation through Collaboration in Europe (ETP LOGISTICS), The European Rail Research Advisory Council (ERRAC), ERTRAC and #Waterborne have adopted the attached joint position paper advocating for Transport Research in the next EU Framework Programme for Research (FP10). Together they call to highlight Transport Research in FP10 because transport is so fundamental for the competitiveness of Europe, and it is of utmost importance to deliver affordable, safe, and sustainable mobility for European citizens. 🔗 Download the joint position paper: https://bit.ly/3zokWuR #FP10 #EUTransportResearch #Competitiveness #Affordable #Safe #Sustainable #Mobility
