The ITS Congress is the key event for smart mobility and intelligent transport, bringing together industry leaders, policy makers, researchers, academics, and public authorities to showcase practical solutions, new technologies, and emerging innovations. Through high-level discussions, technical sessions, exhibitions, and live demonstrations, the ITS Congress illustrates how innovation is shaping safer, more efficient everyday mobility.
