CALL FOR SPEAKERS & START-UPS

 

Tunnels are vital links in any transportation network. Short closing periods - for maintenance or repairs - always generate nuisance. Long closing periods - for renovations - as a matter of course lead to severe congestions. For too long, the tunnel community has accepted this nuisance and chaos as a natural side effect of tunnel operations. This cannot go on!
 
The Beyond A Tunnel Vision conference will challenge old paradigms and move beyond our current tunnel vision on the management and maintenance of these critical infrastructural assets.
 
Is zero-congestion maintenance a utopia? Are just-in-time and first-time-right interventions idle dreams? Is moving from silo-thinking to co-creating really that hard in our industry? Why can’t we turn renovation challenges into value creators? Imagine we could disrupt the way tunnels are perceived: from annoying and unsafe pipes to vital and energy-neutral infrastructure with a clear, positive impact on people’s lives!

Our tunnels need you! 
We expect over 250 representatives of the European infrastructure community to debate, during this one-day conference, on how to define and implement a groundbreaking approach for the management and renovation of underground infrastructure. By integrating the combined knowledge of owner-operators, tunnel managers, consultants, contractors and suppliers, we are bound to find new ideas and initiatives originating from a shared mission.
The organising committee looks forward to meeting all tunnel-related experts at this unique conference. Now is the time to agree on a shared vision, and to kick-start a comprehensive process of co-creation. Let’s face it, we all know we need to welcome the 4th industrial revolution in our niche industry, and you can be part of it!
