SUMMARY:Eurelectric conference
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\nClimate\, air pollution\, transport… these buzzwords
  figure high on the EU political agenda. No wonder so: the air of our cit
 ies today is polluted with fine particles\, SOx & NOx and transport emits
  no less than a 1/4th of Europe’s CO2 emissions.\nTime has come for a cha
 nge. This is the strong belief of citizens and policymakers. The EU is th
 erefore working on creating a legislative framework for cleaner vehicles\
 , mostly through emission standards and public procurement regulatory mea
 sures. Following the latest developments in the Parliament’s environmenta
 l committee on the CO2 standards for cars and vans\, the proposal is posi
 tioned to be both ambitious and realistic. With technologically feasible 
 and economically viable reduction targets and sales benchmarks\, the mass
  integration of EVs in the EU energy ecosystem appears very attainable.\n
 But there is more. If we are to develop a real market for EVs in Europe\,
  it should be simple to charge everywhere and at any time. It implies app
 ropriate infrastructure\, e-mobility services and navigation across Europ
 ean borders at optimal quality and prices. Interoperability between charg
 ing point operators\, energy and service providers will be key. Is Europe
  ready to set up inclusive collaboration around charging contract data\, 
 payment methods and data authentication across the continent?\nUnderstand
 ing this reality\, Eurelectric organises this forum in order to gather th
 e most relevant stakeholders in the sector with the goal to send out a st
 rong signal that e-mobility is now.\nCome and join us on 8 October to dis
 cuss e-mobility with top of the class speakers!\nConfirmed speakers:\n• K

 ation of\, and discussion on\, robust and affordable responses.\nIt is tr
 uly a conference for all ages and levels of experience\, making it an exc
 ellent opportunity for networking and forging excellent professional rela
 tionships. The conference takes an open\, participative approach to its p
 rogramme. Members who join the programme committees can vote to shape the
  contents of the conference itself\, allowing it to adapt to the needs of
  the attendees.\nEach year the conference looks to recruit a more diverse
 \, inclusive and representative Europe-wide membership\, to ensure it rem
 ains relevant to the important transport issues of the day and reflects t
 he needs of the current members.\nCall for papers are announced in Decemb
 er each year. The Call for Papers for ETC 2018 is now closed.  Please ref

SUMMARY:EUROCITIES 2018
DESCRIPTION:The EUROCITIES 2018 will take place in Edinburgh\, on 28-30 No
 vember\, at a critical time for Europe\, against the backdrop of the UK’s
  decision to leave the European Union\, and a year ahead of the European 
 elections. In a turbulent world of unprecedented change and uncertainty c
 ities are even more vital for Europe’s future\, being the drivers of incl
 usive and sustainable growth\, jobs and innovation.\nCitizenship and demo
 cracy\nWhile national governments continue to debate and make decisions o
 n future national and institutional ties\, cities will continue to reach 
 out and build key bilateral and multilateral connections on a European an
 d global scale.\nAhead of the European Parliament elections in 2019\, EUR
 OCITIES 2018 Edinburgh will be an opportunity for cities from across Euro
 pe to reinforce our position that EU institutions and member states must 
 work with us\, to empower citizens to engage with and understand the impo
 rtance of the European project for all.\nWithin the EUROCITIES ‘Cities4Eu
 rope – Europe for citizens’ campaign\, we will be collecting\, analysing 
 and drawing up recommendations for active democratic citizens’ participat
 ion in all levels of government\, and which we will also take forward to 
 the European Commission and the European Parliament in our mayors’ summit
  2019.\nEdinburgh 2018 will provide us with the occasion to discuss and v
 alidate this evidence of cities’ engagement with citizens.\nCulture: a sm
 art investment for our future\nCities need creativity\, collaboration and
  international connections to unlock solutions to urban challenges and to
  enrich the quality of life of their citizens and secure their future inc
 lusion and prosperity.\nCreativity and social innovation can help stimula
 te new solutions to address the challenges cities face\, such as unemploy
 ment\, climate change\, political alienation.\nDuring EUROCITIES 2018\, E
 dinburgh we will explore how culture can build stronger ties between comm
 unities\, bringing people together to learn from each other\, broaden hor
 izons and build relationships\, opening up new ways of communication and 
 understanding.\n\n\n\nEUROCITIES contact\nNicola Vatthauer: nicola.vattha

SUMMARY:Save the date for the STARS car sharing expert workshop in Bremen!
DESCRIPTION:The STARS project is happy to invite you to an expert workshop
  and a site visit on Thursday\, 24 January 2019 in Bremen (Germany). This
  workshop – addressing researchers\, policymakers\, car sharing operators
  and transport experts – will inform about the recent STARS research on c
 ar sharing:\n\nA comparative study in Germany shows\, that the impact of 
 car sharing on car ownership and mobility behaviour differs strongly betw
 een car sharing variants (e.g. free-floating\, roundtrip\, peer-to-peer).
  These differences are related to user attitudes and certain operational 
 features of the variants. To increase the impact of some variants\, a sys
 tematic integration might be needed.\nA study in Italy\, Sweden and Germa
 ny investigates personal attitudes towards cars and sustainability and id
 entifies a range of different mobility styles with different affinity tow
 ards car sharing. The study shows what attitudes trigger conversion to ca
 r sharing and multimodal mobility.\nDifferent car sharing variants can be
  attractive to different people. Car sharing users profiles based on soci
 oeconomic characteristics and mobility styles have been derived for diffe
 rent countries (Germany\, Italy and Sweden) and compared to profiles of p

SUMMARY:Open Mobility Conference 2019
DESCRIPTION:Organised by the MaaS Alliance and TravelSpirit Foundation\, t
 he Open Mobility Conference 2019 will take place in Brussels\, on 11th of
  April. \nThis event will examine how to build an open ecosystem of mobil
 ity and lay the foundations for seamless Mobility as a Service (MaaS).\nH
 ow can we create new mobility services that can be easily deployed\, scal
 ed and integrated seamlessly with existing provision and other new mobili
 ty services?\nWhat does an open ecosystem and Internet of Mobility look l
 ike and what opportunities does it create and why is openness so importan
 t?\nThese are the questions on the table at the Open Mobility Conference 
 2019. This one day conference will bring together innovators and disrupti
 ve thinkers\, transport authorities and mobility operators\, technology p
 roviders and platform developers in a unique co-creative environment to b
 egin to answer these questions.\nThey will consider how we ensure MaaS is

SUMMARY:6th European Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans
DESCRIPTION:The 6th European Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan
 s will be held on Monday 17 and Tuesday 18 June 2019 in Groningen\, The N
 etherlands. The focus of the conference is on providing support to sustai
 nable and active cities within the SUMP context\, i.e. how to make cities
  more walkable and cycle-friendly.\nThe European Conference on Sustainabl
 e Urban Mobility Plans is Europe’s leading annual event for all those inv
 olved in putting the SUMP concept into practice. It serves as a forum for
  policy makers\, local authorities\, urban transport planners\, academics
 \, NGOs and other mobility professionals. The event offers opportunities 
 to network\, debate key issues and to exchange ideas on sustainable urban
  mobility planning. Attendance is free of charge. The 2018 edition in Nic
 osia attracted over 500 participants.\nThe conference is co-funded by the
  European Commission in cooperation with the Municipality of Groningen.\n
 Revision of the SUMP Guidelines\nUpdated SUMP guidelines will be presente
 d for review by the SUMP community. Since their launch in 2013\, the guid
 elines have become the main reference for the development of Sustainable 
 Urban Mobility Plans and have been adopted widely across Europe. The Guid
 elines are currently being updated to reflect recent trends in mobility\,
  technology and society. At various sessions with different formats\, par
 ticipants are encouraged to provide their comments and feedback on the dr
 aft updated guidelines and give their views on long-term planning for sus
 tainable urban mobility.\nHost city Groningen\nGroningen\, a vibrant medi
 um-sized city in the north of the Netherlands\, has a tradition of being 
 a living lab for sustainable urban mobility. It is often referred to as a
  good practice example for mobility innovation\, including active and sus
 tainable mobility.\nGroningen’s mobility strategy\, a strategic vision fo
 r 2035\, is rooted in a long tradition of spatial planning for the city a
 nd the city-region. The plan is the result of an intensive co-creation pr
 ocess. Its general principle is: on foot or by bicycle if possible\, by c
 ar if necessary.\nGroningen aims at optimising multimodality\, zero-emiss
 ion and renewable energy\, safety\, inclusiveness and behavioural change\
 , while ensuring connectivity between the urban area and its surrounding 
 sparsely populated area.\nImmediately before the conference\, Groningen i
 s hosting the 2019 International Cargo Bike Festival.\nRegistration\, con

SUMMARY:Smart City Expo & Smart Mobility Congress in Barcelona
DESCRIPTION:Taking place in Barcelona\, from 19-21 November 2019\, this ed
 ition of Smart City Expo and Smart Mobility Congress is a great opportuni
 ty to in-depth debates on essential topics such as mobility\, digital tra
 nsformation\, urban environment\, governance and finance\, and inclusive 
 and sharing cities.\n \nCOMING UP IN THE 2019 SMART MOBILITY CONGRESS\nTh
 e scourge of traffic is still a major concern which takes the biggest eco
 nomic toll on the largest\, most economically vibrant cities. In the US a
 lone\, congestion cost $305 billion last year\, not to mention the price 
 of air pollution and stress. However\, these consequences don’t appear to
  be enough to discourage people from using cars. In fact\, as all manner 
 of app-based transportation and delivery vehicles are packing the streets
 \, transit ridership has begun to dip in some cities.\nMore details

SUMMARY:Learning from the STARS: Findings & the Future of Car Sharing in E
 urope
DESCRIPTION:“Learning from the STARS: Findings & the Future of Car Sharing
  in Europe”\, the final event of the STARS project will be held in Bremen
  (Germany)\, from 13-14 February.\nAfter 2.5 years\, STARS – Shared mobil
 ity opporTunities And challenges foR European citieS – is about to end an
 d deliver its final outcomes on the diffusion of car sharing in Europe an
 d its implications and impacts on the future of mobility.\nThe project se
 eks to widen its horizon by linking to experiences from other parts of th
 e world such as Asia\, North America and the motherland of car sharing: S
 witzerland. This event\, held in Bremen\, will be the place to be to get 
 a holistic overview of experiences and approaches of car sharing not only
  in Europe\, but also of slightly different approaches and societal and t
 ransport frameworks in Asia and North America.\nThe discussions and talks
  will give you fresh insights and ideas on how car sharing can maximise b
 enefits in terms of congestion mitigation\, environmental footprint\, soc
 ial inclusion and opportunities for different industrial sectors.\nWhy Br
 emen? The city is at the forefront of shared mobility. Car sharing has be
 en integrated into urban renewal and new developments for many years and 
 represents a practical example for the research carried out in STARS.\nOn
  Day 2\, German-speaking mobility stakeholders will be invited to a STARS
  dissemination workshop in German on the integration of car sharing into 
 housing.  This workshop will showcase best practice examples of mobility 
 management in neighbourhoods and housing developments.\n \n \nVENUE DETAI

SUMMARY:IMPACT>MOBILITY
DESCRIPTION:Taking place in Amsterdam\, from 24-25 June 2020\, Impact>Mobi
 lity\, by Reuters Events will bring together CEOs\, mayors\, transportati
 on and city leaders\, innovators and disruptors\, to find a win-win betwe
 en the sustainability aims of the public sector and the commercially driv
 en private sector.  Build partnerships and move towards a scalable model 
 for mobility as a service.\nMobility as a Service is set to revolutionise
  the sustainability efficiency and convenience of transportation systems.
  However\, to make this a reality it is imperative that public and privat
 e stakeholders come together. 2020 is the year where Europe’s biggest cit
 ies are piloting major projects\, regulating mobility and selecting long-
 term MaaS technology and operating partners.\n \nAn Agenda Designed to Tr
 ansform Urban Mobility:\n\nAccelerate the Mobility Data Marketplace: Expa
 nd the ecosystem (e.g. retailers\, tourism\, cities\,) through strategic 
 partnerships to increase monetization of mobility data whilst delivering 
 actionable insights that enable seamless urban transportation\nDeliver Se
 amless Mobility as a Service: Integrate platforms (e.g. micromobility\, p
 ublic transit) and develop new partnerships to deliver a truly multimodal
  mobility solution serving the needs of the connected consumer\nSmart Pub
 lic Transportation for Smart Cities: Leverage connectivity and open APIs 
 to deliver real time service updates and seamless payments resulting in a
  superior mobility proposition that pushes drivers out of their own cars\
 nSupercharging E-Mobility: Propagate charging infrastructure\, utilise sm
 art grid tech and integrate EVs into shared fleets to drive adoption and 
 enable cities to reach ambitious sustainability targets\nFinal Destinatio
 n – The Last Mile: Harness the power of mobility data (e.g. mapping\, con
 gestion etc) to optimise routes\, reduce cost of service and deliver sust
 ainable express solutions whilst meeting the needs of the ‘prime’ consume
