Future of Transport

What will the future of transportation look like in 2030? What innovations are needed to get us there and who will be the companies leading the way? What are the key things that need to be done differently to get us the best possible outcome?

Innovations that have emerged or are currently emerging include electric and other new energy vehicles, connected and autonomous vehicles, new flexible business models for vehicle use, smart intelligent road and public transport infrastructure, self-parking technologies, vehicle internet of things, unmanned drone deliveries, artificial intelligence, and so on.

Join us to explore the innovation landscape in the transport sector, and to hear from our panel of speakers on what they think will happen over the next 10 to 15 years. They will give a range of perspectives that will challenge our current thinking.
