ITS World Congress Hamburg 2021

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) will participate in the European edition of the ITS World Congress and will be part, alongside its members, of the discussion with global stakeholders in the field of connected mobility. This year, the event will take place from 11 to 15 October 2021 in Hamburg and will allow to “Experience Future Mobility Now.”

ITS World Congress is the world’s largest and most prominent event focused on smart mobility and the digitalisation of transports. It aims to underline the importance of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and raise awareness of smart mobility solutions among policy makers, experts, and the general public. It will be a great opportunity to present the latest developments in ITS and enjoy networking opportunities.

Smart mobility and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are crucial constitutive elements of 5GAA, as the association helps shape technological advances in the field. Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS) are the technologies associated with connected vehicles. These technologies, enabled by wireless transactions (V2X), would have a crucial impact on road safety and traffic efficiency. 5GAA supports the idea that 5G will be the ultimate platform to enable C-ITS and the provision of V2X.

5GAA and its members will be involved in different activities, and Maxime Flament, the association’s CTO, will contribute to the following panels:

-Ubiquitous 5G deployment for CCAM: observations and lessons learned
-Efficient communication networks for road and rail corridors
-The Age Of 5G – Enabling Future Mobility

Further details will come in the following weeks.
