Transport Technology Forum

“Reducing Our Carbon Footprint”

About the Forum

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions across the transport systems is driving investment within many industry sectors. Investment in advanced communications, simulation systems, smart metering and optimizations models are changing the nature and use of transport solutions. All this will push content onto mobile devices, create demand for animated simulation and require increased system integration. Ten industry experts will discuss key technological innovations, all with untapped potential in new markets. Presentations will be no longer than 15 minutes and will not involve workshops - just leading edge, state of the art information.
