Smart City Events in 2023

On December 6 at 1:30pm CET, join your peers from across the European energy sector (including Distribution System Operators (DSOs), Transmission System Operators (TSOs) and energy producers) to gain expert insights, shape your strategy and network with industry leaders.Connect with your industry colleagues and be empowered to drive transformative change in your organisation through data-centric approaches.

eMobility Expo World Congress 2024

• Valencia (Spain), 13 February 2024

The eMobility Expo World Congress positions itself as a pivotal event driving the evolution of the eMobility sector, playing a key role in shaping the sustainability of transportation.

Against the backdrop of Europe’s commitment to becoming the first climate-neutral continent by 2050, the EU has implemented various strategies to align the mobility sector with broader sustainability goals. However, recent global economic and political shifts have influenced this strategy, and economic inflation within Europe has prompted adjustments in the operational landscape of certain industries.

Within the context of these challenges and opportunities, the eMobility Expo World Congress serves as a platform where innovative solutions and the latest trends converge. The event seeks to foster a comprehensive understanding of sustainable mobility, bringing together diverse perspectives and insights to navigate the complexities of the evolving eMobility landscape.
