Conference, followed by immersive Study Visit
Technologies, regulations and impacts for integrating autonomous vehicles into future transport systems.
As autonomous driving moves from research and testing towards real-world deployment, Europe faces an important opportunity to shape how these technologies are introduced safely, responsibly and in ways that benefit society.
This conference will bring together policymakers, cities, industry leaders, researchers and mobility experts to discuss the technological, regulatory and societal challenges surrounding autonomous mobility, while showcasing practical experiences from across Europe.
The transition towards autonomous mobility is no longer a future vision—it is becoming a reality. While significant technological progress has been achieved, the successful deployment of Connected, Cooperative and Automated Mobility (CCAM) also depends on effective governance, public trust, collaboration and supportive policy frameworks.
Organised by PAVE Europe, TTS Italia and MOST – National Centre for Sustainable Mobility, this one-day conference aims to strengthen the dialogue on autonomous driving in Italy while connecting national discussions with European initiatives and experiences.
Through keynote speeches, panel discussions and real-world case studies, participants will explore how autonomous vehicles can contribute to safer, smarter and more sustainable transport systems.
