TRA2022 - Transport Research Arena Conference 2022 - is the largest European research and technology conference on transport and mobility. It is organised and hosted by the National Innovation Agency (ANI), Institute for Mobility and Transport (IMT), Engineering Schools Consortium (CEE), National Laboratory for Civil Engineering (LNEC), Magellan – European Affairs Association and co-organised with the European Commission.

This event will be in two parts:

Session I will focus on Road Safety in the EU – Looking ahead to 2030. During this session there will be keynote addresses from Mr Eduardo Cabrita, Minister for Home Affairs of Portugal and Ms Adina Vălean, European Commissioner for Transport.

There will also be a presentation from the European Commission on the new EU road safety strategy and from the Portuguese Road Safety Authority (Autoridade Nacional de Segurança Rodoviária) on Portugal’s national road safety strategy.

Cities are key to the sustainable future of our planet. Massive changes are necessary to fight climate change and social inequalities. But is technology really the most relevant solution to driving change? Urban Future believes that it is all about people: active, passionate and visionary decision-makers are the ones who can make our cities more sustainable.

The Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning at the University of Lisbon is hosting the 5th International Conference on Urban e-Planning.

The annual event attracts professionals from around the world to discuss the current situation of urban e-planning and the future challenges and opportunities that can be expected. Over the course of the two days, there will be presentations from leading academics, panel discussions and networking opportunities.

Cities need to improve quality of life and attract people and business. Policies addressing air pollution, congestion and safety directly affect the delivery of goods and services in urban areas worldwide.

The EPOMM board together with the Municipality of Cascais are sadly compelled to announce that the ECOMM 2020 has been cancelled, as the COVID19 pandemic is still  spreading and further protective measures are foreseeable. We truly  regret the inconvenience that this may cause to participants, speakers  and exhibitors.

We  received 138 submissions on our Call for presentations and we highly  appreciate your efforts and interest in ECOMM. The IPC evaluated all  submissions and the program has been finalized in time.

The ITS European Congress, the largest event entirely dedicated to smart mobility and digitalisation of transport, is organised by ERTICO – ITS Europe.

The ITS European Congress is part of a bigger cluster of ITS Congresses. It is organised in a European city in the years where there is no ITS World Congress in Europe. These events are a strategic opportunity for the transport industry to come together and show the latest innovations, with a slightly different focus for each year. The 14th ITS European Congress theme is: The Game Changer. The five key topics of 2020 are:

The 'Smart Cities' concept encompasses more than mobility, digital platforms or sustainability. The fundamental objective of a Smart City is to incorporate all these areas in order to improve the lives of citizens in the world. The Smart Cities Summit Portugal is an opportunity for national and international experts to share their ideas, experiences and challenges in developing a Smart City. It acts as a market place, creating opportunities for the international sphere. 

The increasing deployment of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies is opening up new avenues of research opportunities towards that future. Although, there have been a number of deployments of diverse IoT systems in the urban space, our understanding of these systems and their implications has just scratched the surface.

Urb-IoT is the 4th EAI International Conference on IoT in Urban Space, which will discuss these new avenues for research and broaden our understanding of IoT technologies. 

The conference will cover multidisciplinary contributions in the areas of:

This research policy workshop will focus on how to move forward the innovation chain in the EU for bioenergy, advanced biofuels and renewable fuels, contributing to the clean energy transformation in energy and transport, in line with the Strategic Development Goals and the EU Communication “Clean Planet for All”.
