Our theme is “Reinventing Transportation in our Connected World.” We have a great story to tell — a story of reinvention of our vehicles and infrastructure, but also of our iconic city — the Motor City — and its core industry. We will tell our story in a very compelling way — through a dynamic, interactive program, exciting exhibits, and the largest set of technology demonstrations in the 21 year history of the World Congress. Our goal is to immerse attendees in the future of transportation technology at the newly renovated Cobo Center, on the streets of Detroit, and on beautiful Belle Isle. Our technical program includes more than 250 sessions, with an all-star line-up of keynote speakers, a Chief Technolo fice Sit an a iheel olic ontale oo ente ill eate oe than square feet of exhibits, including our Youth Connections Pavilion and indoor track for youth challenges, the Entrepreneurial Village, and a next-generation Transportation Operations Center. Of course, no World Congress would be complete without social events and activities, and we offer plenty of opportunities to network with your colleagues, make new business acquaintances, and have some fun. While Detroit is most often associated with cars and the auto industry, it is also a city with a unique history of culture, music, and sports. We offer world-class museums, performing arts, and some of the best professional sports teams on the globe. The region is home to hundreds of beautiful golf courses, onel as an o cose the eat aes sailin fishin oatin o ol ae o assion then Detroit is your place. Detroit is in a unique position to be hosting the World Congress at such an important time in the transportation industry, but also in the City’s rebirth. We are on the cusp of a transformation, where technology offers realistic solutions to our global mobility, safety, and environmental challenges. Detroit is at the heart of this transformation. The Motor City is made of both grit and silicon, where industry and technology are coming together to forge the next generation of transportation systems. I invite you to participate in the “reinvention” and look forward to seeing you in Detroit in September!

The hosts promise a fantastic exhibition at the famous Cobo Center, many ground-breaking interactive demonstrations, an outstanding programme, as well as numerous networking events, with an expected 10,000 transport and technology leaders from around the world. Today’s challenge is to deploy ITS solutions effectively in a coordinated and harmonised manner.
