Transportation Track

March 11-13, 2025

New technology continues to transform the transportation ecosystem, driving a new era of connected, sustainable mobility, and enhanced passenger experience. Autonomous vehicles are making significant progress, with ride-hailing services, and delivery applications increasingly deployed in cities around the world. As EV sales are surging in Europe and parts of Asia, the U.S. market continues to face challenges in the form of fluctuating demand, charging infrastructure, and supply-chain headaches. Meanwhile, climate-conscious solutions for the aviation industry are gaining traction and attention at a rapid pace.
