Accelerating the transition to intelligent transportation systems has never been more important, but it is a challenge that no individual, organisation, or nation can tackle alone. Significant transformations are possible only when we work together to connect people and places with smart, accessible, and sustainable infrastructure. And here at RX Global, we are honoured to partner with ITS America to play our part in this global effort in executing this year’s ITS World Congress.
The theme of the event is Transformation by Transportation and we have brought together more technology and solution providers, more activations, more networking opportunities, and more shared progress.
Since the first Congress day yesterday, nearly 200 sessions are scheduled before the closing ceremony on Thursday. The exhibit hall, which opens today, features an unparalleled selection of product and technology exhibits. To ensure that attendees can make the most of their experience, ITS World Congress has offered personalised agendas to help prioritise attendees’ programming, networking opportunities, and exhibitor visits.
This is the event for anyone invested in improved transportation and smart mobility. ITS America Events is proud to organise an event that will help reimagine transportation on a global scale, creating greener communities, more resilient systems, increased equity, and safer streets for all.
Partnering with the US Department of Commerce, this ITS World Congress has attendees from around the globe.
Delegations from Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Japan, Taiwan, Colombia, Australia and other countries are here, but we are also looking forward to connecting with the best and brightest ITS innovators from our partners in Western Europe and Asia- Pacific.
This year’s educational themes include equitable and seamless mobility, digital infrastructure, intelligent technology from entry to the last mile, and connected, automated vehicles. Additionally, presenters and exhibitors will be charting the pathto Vision Zero and discussing how to realise greater sustainability and resiliency throughout transportation infrastructure. This congress will also investigate policy and governance, business models, and international cooperation.
Make sure you check out the Innovation Zone, staged in partnership with the California Mobility Center. Serving as a launchpad for emerging, intelligent transportation products, services, and businesses, the Innovation Zone will provide industry leaders and investors with opportunities to interact with early-stage companies toward a goal of commercialisation.
Visitors will also hear from the top eight finalists in the 2022 Global ITS Innovation Competition. Each finalist will pitch their solution to a distinguished panel of ITS experts and industry thought leaders.
This competition has enabled budding enterprises to engage funders, private companies, governments, and other leaders to facilitate bold, new solutions that will transform how we live and move.
For the ITS America Events team, which is in the business of building businesses, it is especially rewarding to help bring the ITS
World Congress back to the United States for the first time since the event was hosted in Detroit in 2014.
The location couldn’t be more appropriate. Los Angeles is redefining transportation. Already, more than 60,000 electric vehicles ply the city streets, with consumer adoption fuelled by rebates, tax credits, carpool lane incentives, and rapidly growing charging infrastructure.
Intelligent transportation is safer, greener, and smarter, and implementation is accelerating fast. The ITS World Congress 2022 is, therefore, not only a look into the future but also a commemoration of today’s success. The opportunity to celebrate, learn, explore, and drive change forward together is here. Right now.
