Upcoming events
ITS European Congress 2026
5GAA is organising the Special Interest Session “From data to deployment: accelerating CCAM and C-ITS through connectivity and collaboration”, as part of the ITS European Congress Technical Program on 27 April in Istanbul.
The session will take place on Monday, 27 April from 14.00 to 15.00 (local time).
Building on 5GAA’s 2025 Special Interest Session in Seville on the use of vehicle data for road operations and safety, the session will explore how connected and cooperative vehicle technologies are moving from data-driven pilots to large-scale CCAM and (C-)ITS deployment across Europe.
Speakers from the automotive sector Volkswagen’s Razvan Racu and AUMOVIO’s David Gonzalez Gonzalez, alongside European policymaker Erik Vrijens (Department of Vehicles and Digital Infrastructure, Netherlands), will showcase how cooperation across industries is turning connectivity into tangible societal benefits, from safer roads to more efficient transport networks.
The discussion will feature practical examples such as Safety-Related Traffic Information (SRTI) and Vulnerable Road User (VRU) protection, highlighting how these applications are being integrated into wider safety frameworks, including Euro NCAP’s roadmap.
The panel will also examine how advanced connectivity is enabling new mobility services — such as next-generation eCall and V2X-enabled tolling and payments — that make transport more user-centred, efficient, and responsive to citizens’ needs.
