Swedish transport research conference 2024 and Pathfinders – The Future of Transportation
Between Oct 15 and 18 a series of transport-related conferences are being held in Gothenburg. On October 15 there is the Triple F's Autumn Conference and on October 16-18 two more conferences will put the focus on a sustainable freight transport sector: the Swedish transport research conference, STRC 2024 and Pathfinders – The Future of Transportation.
Swedish transport research conference, STRC 2024
The 13th annual Swedish transport research conference, is a meeting place for transport researchers active in Sweden or addressing topics set in a Swedish context. The conference covers all traffic modes and all transport related research questions. It welcomes contributions from all disciplines and areas covering analysis, understanding, design, planning and evaluation of the transport system. The aim is to:
- Increase the professional and social interaction between transport researchers in Sweden
- Improve collaboration and information exchange between different disciplines and areas in transport research
- Improve conditions for increased mobility between different institutions in Sweden
When: 16-17 October, 09:30-15:30
Where: Chalmers Kårhus, Chalmers University of Technology
Pathfinders – The Future of Transportation
This seminar is hosted by Transport Area of Advance at Chalmers University of Technology and the University of Gothenburg and aims to encourage insightful discussions between academia, industry and policy makers, with a focus on how we can shape impactful technologies and applications that benefit society.
The day will start with a look at academic and educational insights from a Dutch perspective, followed by a session highlighting national and regional perspectives on transportation. Lastly, there will be a session on industry viewpoints, bringing together experts from various transport modes − road, sea, and air and a panel discussion focusing on bridging the gap between innovative ideas and their realisation in practice.
When: 18 October 2024, 09:00-15:30
Where: RunAn, Chalmers conference centre
Triple F's Autumn Conference
On October 15 Triple F is hosting its Autumn Conference in Gothenburg. During the conference we will focus on questions like how actors within the transportation system need to work to reach climate goals in the most efficient way possible, and what policies and regulations, like the EU's Fit-for-55, will be pivotal for the transition to a fossil-free freight transport system. During the conference we will also deep-dive into policy and regulations and get to take part of new results from Triple F-funded projects.
