Instant Mobility Stakeholder Workshop
20/03/2012 - 20/03/2012
Instant Mobility is a 2-year research project in the Future Internet Public-Private Partnership (FI-PPP) that is exploring the potential of Future Internet technologies to bring a revolutionary improvement to the mobility of people and goods, and to the operation of transport networks and systems.
The Instant Mobility team are developing three Future Internet-based scenarios that exploit new technologies to deliver innovative services for-
- A Personal Travel Companion for car drivers and other travellers;
- Smart City Logistics operations; and
- Transport Infrastructure as a Service.
In the next months the project will create Internet-based technical solutions to enable these scenarios, leading up to a conceptual prototype to be shown at the ITS World Congress in Vienna next October.
About the Workshop
This workshop aims to verify with key actors and stakeholders that these systems and solutions would really meet users’ requirements. It will also present Future Internet features and capabilities relevant for mobility of people and goods, and will explore potential business models for Future Internet-enabled services. Finally, the floor will be open to potential participants in a second phase of the programme, where a number of pilot cities will be selected to host a pilot implementation of Instant Mobility scenarios.
Do not miss this excellent opportunity to hear about our work, share your thoughts and ideas with the project team and learn how you, your business and your city could benefit from the latest developments on Future Internet applied for intelligent transport and mobility.
