MaaS, EVs and AVs: How Helsinki Became a Transport Trendsetter

_____________________________

Nearly no other city does MaaS as effectively as Helsinki. It is the core of the city's transport network. Reetta Putkonen, Director of Traffic and Street Planning, City of Helsinki, and Ulla Tikkanen, Technical Project Manager, Smart Mobility Systems and Autonomous Driving, Forum Virium Helsinki explore the factors driving innovation in the Helsinki transport scene and what the future holds - achieving carbon neutrality and interoperability among cities through the Fabulos project.

Making the Future of Urban Autonomous Vehicles Safe with Far Infrared

_____________________________

The evolving auto world buzzes not only with hypes of automation and electrification, but also with concerns for safety. In light of these key trends, Raz Peleg, Sales Director of AdaSky, discusses how Far Infrared Technology (FIR) can enable greater safety in autonomous cars and save energy for electric vehicles in urban environments, when compared to other sensor technologies.

From the Founder of Autonomy:
A Cordial Invitation

We are 7 weeks away from the 4th edition of Autonomy Paris and we are delighted with the progress. As I am sure many of you know, building new events is not easy. Finding the right theme, city and team is crucial.

We started our event five years ago, before "diesel gate", before Global Warming became a major public issue, before free-floating bikes and scooters and before MaaS was a common acronym. In this short period we have seen changes unimaginable when we started.

Major companies are investing in new mobility services and startups. Cities are open to free-floating operators deploying their vehicles and new car sales are down in every major economy of the world.

This is the start of a massive tipping point and Autonomy with its partners, cities, exhibitors, startups and delegates is the place to experience the disruption.
