On 12-14 September 2023, European companies are invited to join Global Mobility Call which coincides with the Spanish Presidency of the European Union.
Global Mobility Call will host two major events organised by the Spanish Government, bringing together representatives of European ministries and business leaders and the world’s main regulatory bodies.
On 13 April, the second edition of Global Mobility Call was presented worldwide. Once again, this year the event is sponsored by the Spanish Government, through the Ministry of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda, and has the support of the Community of Madrid and the City Council.
Global Mobility Call will bring together companies and associations from the energy sector, such as Cepsa, Iberdrola and Total Energies; public transport, with the Consorcio de Transportes, EMT and Metro de Madrid; multimodal mobility, with Adif, Aena, Arriva, Enaire, Iberia, Puertos del Estado, Renfe and Senasa; technology and innovation, such as Etra, Indra, Ineco and Sistem; and infrastructures, with the National Geographic Institute, among others.
The event will build upon and expand the topics discussed in the first edition such as digitalisation and sustainability, including a focus on challenging areas such as the aviation industry and the potential for improved infrastructure developments.
Secretary General for Transport and Mobility, María José Rallo said:It is necessary to move towards mobility articulated around efficient public transport that progressively abandon fossil fuels and moves towards zero-emission vehicles, powered by renewable energies. Global Mobility Call is a unique opportunity to learn about the most advanced and innovative mobility solutions. I am confident that its conclusions will attract the attention of society and public opinion.
Global Mobility Call will bring together 10,000 participating professionals, and a further 15,000 estimated online participants via the digital platform, in a gathering that will promote multi-sectoral relations between companies, institutions, associations and experts.
José Vicente de los Mozos, President of IFEMA Madrid said:Alliances with multilateral organisations will allow the second edition to feature leading voices from the sectors that make up sustainable mobility, while consolidating the international projection of the event through the direct participation of large international organisations. We also work through the commercial delegations in different European and Latin American countries to attract companies, investors and international leaders.
Spanish Presidency of the EU
This second edition will coincide with the Spanish Presidency of the Council of the European Union, which begins on 1 July. The Ministry of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda (Mitma) will organise, within the framework of Global Mobility Call, two parallel events: the “Technical Conference on Mobility in Rural Areas” and a meeting of “The PEP Partnership on Active Mobility”.
Furthermore, the event will have a specific area for national and international cities and territories, which will support the exchange of experiences and knowledge of trends, success stories and plans for the implementation of new mobility solutions and low-emission zones.
