Objectives:

•  To re-define “integrated transport” by discussing traveller information as prominent key
    for a new era of mobility
•  to change the focus from “transport” to “mobility”, by shifting from a provider's to a
    traveller's approach.
 

Whilst statistics rather contribute to polarization by contrasting stagnant or even declining public transport passenger trips to journeys made by car, why not customize multimodal concepts to meet yet underestimated traveller needs?

The Expert Forum is geared to discuss market potentials, to promote successful initiatives in user-centered mobility schemes and to exemplify the key role of information to make people abandon traditional travelling habits in exchange for sustainable alternatives with a higher degree of freedom at lower costs.
 
• Policy makers
• Transport providers
• Traveller associations
• Special interest groups
• Vehicle manufacturers
• Information managers
• Information designers
are invited to participate in the expert discussions.
