MAP – 15 DETAILED PROGRAMME – 16 PARTNERS – 21 3 THEME FOR ECOMM 2018 The main theme of ECOMM 2018 is “Mobility in disruption – fast-forward to smart and sustainable societies”. “Mobility in disruption” describes a radical change to the domain of mobility, mainly in terms of technological innovation, new mobility concepts such as sharing platforms and social innovation due to digital platforms. Many European cities and regions find themselves in an intensive process of transformation with strong growth in numbers of inhabitants, residential areas and businesses. However, the goals for creating socially, economically and ecologically sustainable societies are set higher than ever. At the same time, there are by contrast regions where the populations are decreasing but where the sustainability goals are nevertheless of equal importance. This theme emphasizes the urgent need of innovative mobility solutions to help achieve the sustainability goals in these transforming societies. Together, physical planning, technology, businesses, policies and behavioural insights are able to disrupt mobility as we know it, which in turn can change societies. CHALLENGES TO DISRUPTIVE MOBILITY SOLUTIONS Disruptive mobility provides many opportunities for smart and sustainable societies. However, there are still many challenges and concerns regarding it. In order to overcome some of the most prominent challenges and to be able to actually fast-forward to smart and sustainable societies, the ECOMM 2018 conference has selected five cross-cutting subjects: yesterday, today and tomorrow; the institutional and legal framework; human behaviour; including everyone; and safety. 4 SCHEDULE OVERVIEW 08.00-13.30 Registration open 08.00-12.00 Build-up stands & demonstrations 09.00-12.00 Excursions & side meetings 12:00-13.30 Lunch + visit exhibition WEDNESDAY 12.00-18.00 Exhibition open 30 MAY 13.30-15.00 Opening Session 15.00-15.30 Coffee break 15.30-17.00 Focus Sessions 1 A:1 A:2 A:3 A:4 A:5 18.30-20.00 Welcome reception 09.00-18.00 Exhibition open 09.00-10.30 Plenary Session 10.30-11.00 Coffee break 11.00-12.30 Focus Sessions 2 B:1 B:2 B:3 B:4 B:5 12.30-13.30 Lunch break THURSDAY 13.30-15.00 Focus Session 3 31 MAY C:1 C:2 C:3 C:4 C:5 15.00-15.15 Short Coffee break 15.15-16.45 Focus Session 4 D:1 D:2 D:3 D:4 D:5 19.30-...
