The programme – furnished by contributions submitted from renown experts all over the world – is core element of the ITS World Congress and the motor that drives global leaders’ attendance. This year, the Congress team has received an immense amount of contributions with over 46% originating from the EMEA region. 

The programme of this year’s ITS World Congress in Dubai revolves around four pillars: Innovation in mobility & logistics is complemented by deep dives into urban, clean and automated mobility topics such as seamless travel experiences, smart infrastructure, artificial intelligence and machine learning in transportation, connectivity and communication technologies, electrification, alternative fuels, autonomous systems, regulatory challenges and impact assessment, just to name a few. 

Wolfgang Höfs, ERTICO’s Congress Advisor, expresses his deep satisfaction with the number and quality of the contributions: “All four thematic pillars of the programme are well addressed. Thanks to the great work of the submitters the programme will cover a broad range of topics from most recent technologies essential for the coming mobility transition to extraordinary deployment examples of such innovations all over the world. I am sure that we will experience a high-profile event in Dubai with many interesting and noteworthy sessions.” 

The work on the programme continues, stay tuned for further updates!
