Last chance to register! Innovate UK #GlobalAllianceAfrica SITA South Africa Open Innovation Challenge Information Session and Q&A (online) taking place tomorrow! Come along to learn all about the latest Open Innovation Challenge to optimise aircraft turnaround times at regional African airports to reduce emissions. #AGILETURNAROUND Their goal is to reduce CO2 emissions and wasted resources (primarily caused by additional use of aircraft APUs: Auxiliary Power Units) by 20% by enhancing efficiency and streamlining turnaround logistics. Innovative solutions should have real-time functionality, measurement ability and be capable of dealing with the reduced amount of data collected by smaller airports. The solutions will initially be trialled in South Africa and should be scalable regionally. 11/10/2024 10.00 - 11.30 BST Register here: https://lnkd.in/eYkZvRYw Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office Babar Javed Dana Heldt Kenneth Mogane Kristin Klose Leanne Jones #UKInternationalDevelopment

We are proud to have been invited by CCI France UAE to engage in the "Business Engagement Summit" organized by the French Council and Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) to highlight the critical role of the transportation and mobility sectors in both the UAE and France.  In the presence of H.E. Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of RTA and H.E. Nicolas Niemtchinow, Ambassador of the French Republic to the UAE, we had the opportunity to collaborate and moderate Panel Discussions, alongside global French industry leaders RATP Dev, EDF, ENGIE, Schneider Electric, Egis, Alstom and many others.  During the event, over 35 leading companies specializing in mobility and innovation gathered to discuss key topics that will shape Dubai's future mobility ecosystem. Carlos Guevara, Partner at Sia Partners, focused on the impact of innovative mobility and how it will transform Dubai in the coming years. Khalid El Bachraoui, Managing Director at Sia Partners, explored the realm of Smart Transportation and Data Monetization, while Anis Balla, Senior Manager at Sia Partners addressed the challenges of Carbon Emissions in the Mobility sector. We would like to thank CCI France UAE and RTA for organising such a high-calibre event, where we enjoyed a delightful day in the company of our valuable clients, partners, and colleagues.

The #Spanishrailwayindustry returns to the #MiddleEast. This time exhibiting at Global Rail Transport Infrastructure Exhibition & Conference seeking to expand commercial relations and to participate in upcoming infrastructure investments. MAFEX coordinates the Spanish participation in #AbuDhabi between 📅 8-11 Oct Positioning themselves and seeking new opportunities are two of the main objectives of Spanish companies, which already appear as a #technologicalbenchmark in the Middle East region and where they have already contributed with their solutions to the main projects carried out in the past years. For this reason, this exhibition represents for us an ideal platform to raise awareness about new Spanish technologies and to establish new contacts with the main local and global stakeholders that are shaping the future of transport in this market. #Spanish #rail #industry #opportunities #middleeast #transport   CAF (Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles) DANOBAT Indra INECO Sener Talgo Renfe Ministerio de Transportes y Movilidad Sostenible

I would like to express my big thanks to the organizers of Middle East Rail & Saudi Rail , the German Pavilion, and all friends of customers and partners. It is unexpectedly crowded at the booth on the second day (last day). The tiny fair actually saves a lot of time for us and makes it possible to have an insight exchange. Although it is a pity that no region operator comes, it is still a very successful event for me and DTEC. First of all, we discussed with all the third party planning organizations e.g. big shots of designing, consulting, and construction for the region. From their point of view, wayside monitoring and depot equipment are somehow must-have solutions for those new projects. Although there are not so many local suppliers, operators show their consideration of safety, reliability, and availability of railway transportation. Within our German Pavilion, I am lucky to talk with AXO, the startup of point condition monitoring solution in DB (Oliver von Sperber actually, the prize winner in Railway Forum Berlin 2021), and Track Forward, the data science company who developed data-based wheelset maintenance optimization tools for DB Cargo.Schunk Group Transitsystem, the pantograph technology supplier with innovative solutions of real-time thickness measurement for panto carbon strips. I appreciate the inspiring and fruitful talks with you. Sometimes I even tell myself: “WoW, you would never expect so many possibilities that you can bring just by simple face-to-face conversations if you don’t start to meet in person and talk.” I love rail and the work at present. Also, we see familiar faces from Spain. Thanks for bringing your local channels to DTEC. I feel happy and grateful and seriousness of your trust. Not only the region of MEA. I am happy as well for our team for the Asia Pacific region. Because they finally find a clearer way to develop influence there. The only thing we need is time. The time to figure out the challenges, to work with you together, and wait for the return.  Work for life. Life is good. 🤣
