Innovate Mobility & Infrastructure is your chance to meet the people behind innovative technological research projects & startups.

About the event

Switzerland stands at a crossroads of transportation transformation. The drive for sustainability and innovation is shaping a future of cleaner, smarter, and more integrated mobility, with autonomous vehicles navigating the roads, public transport systems with seamless digital ecosystems, and new modes of transport above and below ground. As mobility demand evolves, so will the need to build transport infrastructure more sustainably and economic, with new techniques and low-carbon materials, smarter digital systems and a view to circularity and resource conservation.

Connect with leading experts across administration, public transport, construction, and startups for cutting-edge smart infrastructure solutions. Our comprehensive agenda delivers forward-thinking presentations and panel discussions on how our changing mobility world defines our future infrastructure needs and how innovators want to tackle the challenge to create and maintain the next generation of transport infrastructure.
