Looking ahead to what’s in store for the transport industry, the conference offers both challenges and inspiration for those businesses looking to take their place among industry leaders in the years to come. What is the Future of Transport?

There will be a number of streams running across the two days, to help attendees identity the presentations most relevant to their own interests and industry experience. Anyone involved in courier jobs will be particularly interestedinthe Urban Mobility & Smart City stream, which proposes a variety of urban mobility solutions for future megacities. Also of interest is the Urban Air Mobilitystream. These talks will discuss the radical possibility of using airborne transportation devices to carry both people and cargo around future megacities. Some experts predict that these aerial vehicles will become as popular as cars are today. The Sustainability in Transportation stream will see more than 30 speakers contribute to a debate on how the energy needs of growing transportation networks will be met as dependence on the internal combustion engine decreases. They will look at how infrastructure will change and ask what more governments can do to promote zero or low-emission behaviours.
