Mobility as a Service in Europe - POSTPONED
2020-03-18 - 2020-03-19 | Amsterdam
This event has been postponed to September 2020, dates are still to be confirmed.
Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) has rapidly gained acceptance in Europe. Pioneering MaaS projects have been launched in cities such as Annemasse, Angers, Antwerp, Berlin, Birmingham, Dusseldorf, Gothenburg, Helsinki, Madrid, Manchester, Paris, Stockholm and Vienna in the past two years.
To accelerate the implementation of MaaS, the European Commission has launched three projects — MyCorridor, iMOVE and MaaS EU – under the EU Horizon 2020 programme. Going forward, the market size of MaaS is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 35-40 per cent by 2025. Nearly three-fourth of this growth will be driven by cities in Western Europe. It is expected that MaaS will include not only public transport and private mobility service providers but also parking, electric vehicle charging, road toll collection, services at stations and other value-added services.
While MaaS presents opportunities to create a user-centric experience through transport behaviour analysis, there are concerns about data sharing and privacy. There are also questions on who should drive the integration of mobility options and value-added services – a private integrator or the transport authority. These concerns need to be resolved if the anticipated growth has to be achieved.
To learn about MaaS applications, discuss these developments and explore opportunities, Global Mass Transit is organising a conference on Mobility-as-a-Service in Europe: Plans and Opportunities; Technology and Solutions on March 18-19, 2020 at the InterContinental Amstel in Amsterdam.

Empowering mobility with secure and accessible data
2020-06-03 14:00 - 16:00 | ONLINE
Data-driven innovation will bring enormous benefits for citizens in the area of mobility and it will reshape the way we produce, consume and live. ERTICO is organising a two-day virtual conference supported by its valued Partner BlackBerry to promote the discussion between the private and the public sector on needs, requirements, business bottlenecks and safety concerns in data-powered mobility.
This Virtual Conference Empowering mobility with secure and accessible data will address the issues that are underpinning the effectiveness and safety in mobility and the existing mobility schemes currently available and it will discuss the potential for clean mobility at a time when priorities for decision-makers and users might be changing. A new mobility paradigm is being created out of necessity (our urge to move vs our need to be safe) and the plans of the European Commission to proceed towards common European data spaces along with the discussion on stakeholder cooperation in data sharing has to finally yield results.
Four distinct panels will tackle these issues with distinguished speakers providing a clear direction on the new and innovative developments taking place in the mobility sector. The Virtual Conference will take place on 3 and 4 June 2020 from 14.00-16.00. There will an opportunity for participants to pose questions to the Speaker panels.

2020-09-17 15:00 - 16:30 | ONLINE
In Covid19 days, due to restrictions in our public transport capacity, demand and offer are usually unbalanced and users have some concerns about using sharing services. MaaS will help administrations to have more efficient, reliable, and safer transport in Covid19 times.
In this Mobility Talks’ episode 5, EIT Urban Mobility will invite a high-level panel of international experts and will guide a constructive discussion on the three most important challenges of MaaS:

whether a suitable governance scheme (not technology) is key for MaaS to thrive.
data as a cornerstone for any MaaS architecture for better managing mobility, addressing societal goals (sustainability, equity, accessibility) and enabling new viable business models around mobility services.
the most interesting industry developments for more integrated user experience as a real and competitive alternative to the private car.

Piia Karjalainen and Krista Huhtala-Jenks from MaaS Global will be speaking at the session on Governance.
