Seven myths outlining why MaaS will not fly (and how to prove them wrong)

Register today for this on-demand webinar, in partnership with Hacon, to hear speakers discuss some of the myths, misconceptions and false conclusions that are slowing down the paradigm shift towards MaaS.

Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) is picking up speed, but some organisations are still hesitant to hop on the train – fearing that the effort would be excessive and not worth it.

Hacon is firmly convinced that MaaS is changing mobility for good. But concerns and worries are, of course, legitimate and must be taken seriously, and misunderstandings should be sorted wherever possible. In this webinar, speakers will address some of the myths, misconceptions and false conclusions that are slowing down the paradigm shift towards MaaS.

Whether players are scared by the expected complexity of technical implementations, struggling to find the right business models or questioning the relevance and benefits of MaaS solutions – the good thing is: there is a feasible response to every challenge and concern.

During this webinar, Sohejl Wanjani, Business Development Manager at Siemens Mobility/Hacon, and Dr. Ulrich Lange, Head of Sales Management and Presales Consulting at eos.uptrade, discussed seven of the most common MaaS myths. They also shared their learnings from several large-scale MaaS projects and explain the critical requirements for a successful and long-lasting MaaS platform.
