The world’s largest annual gathering of urban mobility actors has just closed its doors. After two days of meetings and experience sharing, the Autonomy Mobility World Expo (AMWE) team is delighted that the industry once again chose AMWE to connect and build the new sustainable mobility ecosystem.

“We are witnessing the mobility disruption where motorists are converting to mobilists by replacing the cost and friction of old-style fixed car ownership with flexible ways to access cars, bikes, mopeds, scooters and mass transit. This new community uses AMWE each year to connect, learn and partner in this new ecosystem” shares Ross Douglas, CEO of Autonomy.

Conferences and talks

More than 400 speakers on five stages covered a range of topics in our seven industry themes: Smart Mobility Cities, Mass Transit Tech, E-Mobility, Fleet Services, Shared Mobility, Urban Logistics and Autonomous Vehicles.

For the fifth year in a row, AMWE partnered with POLIS Network to present the conference programme, ‘CITY VOICES – Get Our Cities Moving’, bringing together high-level leaders from global cities such as Manchester, Amsterdam, Bogotá, Budapest, Torino, Groningen, Helmond, Gothenburg, Thessaloniki, Madrid and Leuven to share best practices and lessons learned on sustainable mobility.
