Plenaries

Monday PlenaryNational ITS Strategies: Spurring Economic Growth through High-

Tech Transportation Solutions” (Monday Plenary)Senior political leaders and policymakers from the Americas, Asia-Pacific, and

Europe will offer their perspectives on public policies and strategies that can accelerate the deployment of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) to promote economic growth and job creation, improve the condition and performance of our existing transportation infrastructure, and make better use of private sector investment and innovation to improve safety, reduce traffic congestion, cut costs, and meet the demands of future generations.  From cars that avoid crashes and smart highways that reduce congestion, to stress-sensing bridges and buses that provide real-time information to commuters, policy leaders will focus on ways to advance 21st century transportation technology solutions with an emphasis on how these strategies can improve the global economy while doing “more with less”.

Plenaries

Wednesday PlenaryIngredients for Innovation to Keep the Economy Moving 

Innovation leaders from across the globe will discuss their vision for how technology is modernizing our cities and transportation networks.  Technology is transforming how we live and move people and goods from place to place, from a commuter who checks his smart phone for the best route home before leaving the office, to widgets shipped halfway around the world with advanced logistics, to entire “smart cities” equipped with connected energy, utility, and transportation infrastructure.  What new technologies are on the horizon, and is there a “next big thing” that will revolutionize transportation while spurring job creation and economic growth?  What more can governments do to encourage private sector innovators to invest in the research, development and deployment of intelligent transportation solutions to solve local, national and global transportation challenges?
