Hampuri ITS World Congress

Blog: Back to the Future – ITS World Congress makes a comeback

The ITS World Congress is the biggest event focused on smart mobility and the digitalisation of transport. The congresses are the yearly celebration of smart mobility: they underline the importance of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), particularly in cities and regions where they are hosted. The events are important channels to raise awareness of smart mobility solutions among policy makers, experts and the general public.

Growth has also begun in air traffic, albeit more slowly than in the rest of Europe.
