Trendsetter on the future market

polisMOBILITY Conference

Name: polisMOBILITY
Start: 2023-05-24
End: 2023-05-26
Location: Koelnmesse GmbH

The polisMOBILITY Conference provides valuable input towards a sustainable and successful transport transition in our cities and regions. It acts as a gathering place for stakeholders from the economy, local authorities, public policy, research and civil society. The event is a forum where they can jointly explore complex and multifaceted technical requirements and social responsibilities and push ahead with these tasks.

With cooperation at the heart of its concept, polisMOBILITY serves as a platform for promoting an active transformation and integrated solutions – coming together across sector boundaries and building on existing networks.

At the polisMOBILITY Conference, we will discuss both the state of the art in technological development and explicitly address the corresponding control and strategy questions from a cross-sector, -level and -stakeholder perspective – sustainably fostering the development of viable mobility ecosystems is our goal.

How can we design mobility to create the human-scale, sustainable city of tomorrow?

Theme blocks at the polisMOBILITY Conference 2023

1. Mobility Transition by Local Authorities – Municipal strategies for tomorrow’s mobility

Local authorities play a key role in the mobility transition. The Mobility Transition by Local Authorities theme block focuses on the issues of local authority control, the need for cooperations, role allocation and concrete implementation steps. We will shed light on these topics by drawing on best and next practices.

2. Local Public Transport & Mobility Services – Attractive solutions for alternative mobility

To achieve the desired change in the modal split, attractive services are needed. Diverse means of transport combined with digital platform models can provide new possibilities for seamless mobility that make switching from private motor transport more attractive. But to realise this, supply chains and market logics must be aligned, and public and private sector operating models must dovetail. It is in this area of intersection that we address cooperation issues and support the building of future-proof alliances so that market growth and general well-being can go hand in hand.

3. Last-Mile Logistics – Cooperative solutions for sustainable and efficient supply chains

A range of solutions for future-proof last-mile logistics are already available. The Last-Mile Logistics theme block will therefore focus on challenges in the operational, area-wide roll-out of last-mile solutions in cooperations between local authorities, providers, operators and logistics specialists.

4. Vehicles & Drive Technologies – Active technological transformation for precision solutions and innovations

Future-proof mobility solutions call for technological innovations. Vehicle as a Solution is the model for future behaviour patterns and for meeting spatial requirements in urban environments. The transformation of the automotive industry is opening up new business fields. polisMOBILITY provides a forum for this transformation and a venue for cross-sector networking by stakeholders in the field of future mobility and its technologies. Our goal is to foster a new multisector vision among market-shaping players and actors.

5. Urban Sector Coupling – Local potential for action to promote decentralised decarbonisation strategies

Decarbonising the energy sector can be achieved only by integrating electricity, heating, industry and transport into future strategy. The special role that e-mobility will play in the energy transition in transport is creating new responsibilities to provide charging points. In the Urban Sector Coupling theme block, we will examine what cross-sector solutions at the local authority level can look like and what kinds of cooperations between local energy suppliers, distribution system operators, industry partners and consumers are needed to embed climate-friendly mobility solutions holistically. With this goal in mind, we will devote special attention to the Charging & Charging Infrastructure focus topic.

6. Digitalisation – Analytics and innovations for effective and efficient solutions

To harness the potential of digitalisation effectively, an understanding of market mechanisms and the logics underpinning digital business models is needed. Digital solutions promise to reduce the complexity of transport systems and to increase their efficiency. This theme block addresses issues that will shape our future, from sensor technology for environmental and transport data all the way through to business models for digital infrastructure and services. We promote exchanges that empower local authorities to assert their competence in order to find effective and efficient solutions.

Statement Johannes Busmann, Managing Partner polis Convention GmbH

"The guiding principles of the car-oriented and function-oriented city have determined the premises of urban planning for many decades. Against the backdrop of global technological developments in digitalisation, artificial intelligence and energy storage, we are now on the threshold of a "mobility-friendly" city that will open up completely new possibilities for us to design a sustainable and liveable city. With polisMOBILITY, we want to accompany this change and be a partner in the dialogue between business, science, politics and urban society."

Statement Christian Hahn, CEO, Hubject GmbH

"For the success of electromobility, several million charging stations will have to be built in the coming years. And this is where municipalities and cities play an essential role. That's why we're delighted to be organising a top event together with the world-renowned Messe Köln to discuss the key success factors of electromobility with representatives from the municipal sector."
